    yip you MIGHT get away with shoulder shot 9 times out of 10 , but that 10th one will haunt you.... those pills designed to break up fast so exploding inside chest cavity or partial decapitation are the most reliable killing shots.

    ahh yes but if you were using the .308w with 110grn vmax my advice would be the same
    mate got me to load some light loads for 30/06 I managedto find 125grn taipans..the ywere goat decapitators with high neck shot....same deal very explosive with little penertration.
    75/15/10 black powder matters
