[QUOTE="Pecos7744, post: 1180529, member: 93501"] I guess I should clarify. It doesn't matter the caliber used if you have poor shot placement. But with proper shot placement AND a good bullet in the 120-140 gr range that range will NOT pose a problem for that round. And no you don't need to brain shot them. I have had better result with my 6.5 vs my 30-06. I feel it it's a much more efficient round that simply puts the animal down. I researched changing out mine for elk hunting and everything coming back to if you have the confidence to put a good bullet where it needs to go then that round is more than effective enough for the job.
