   I know its not what you meant WH and that you are a careful shot, but there is so much more to dispatching an animal than "whacking it". I encouraged my boys to aim at a spot on the deer, rather than...

   If you have time to count to sixteen then you have time to place your shot better.

   I've seen roaring stags soak up lead from calibres much bigger than a 243. There's so much more to it than just the calibre. Bugger though, not nice losing animals. Stug, whats your friends 16...

   My friend just nailed a 16 pointer with his 243, using 80gr Barnes. Shot it in the neck at about 50-75 yds. He recovered the projectile under the skin at the back of the neck.

    Interesting. I have never had it happen Nosler ballistic tips and Hornady ELD-Ms in T3 300wm, 7mmRM, 308 etc. I always load out so that the projectiles only just fit in the magazine. Maybe with...
