    Ever been corked in the thigh? =dead leg. You absolutely can have CNS shock without actual physical damage to the cns parts.
    An example : i shot a sika stag @30m with the 6.5prc 123sst @2900pfs. The projectile deflected & popped after hitting brush of some sort. Hit 3 inches in front of the pelvis, it dropped on the shot before taking off on its front legs only while i put some follow up shots into it.
    The piece of bullet was only some flat shaped copper jacket that went into the backsteak but didnt damged the spine.
    Now i use bonded bullets in the bush.

    a corked thigh is a muscle contusion - it sucks but it isn't CNS shock
