    Another cocky I know shoots most of his goats with one too.

    Do any of you guys have any experience shooting goats or larger animals with this stuff?

    Obviously I have suitable rifles and calibers for goats etc, cheers.
    Are those designed with a hand gun in mind?
    If so they are probably a bit soft for larger, harder (goats heads) targets at closer ranges. Just a guess
    Experience. What you get just after you needed it.
