[QUOTE="Slick8, post: 1741880, member: 52585"] I've had similar experiences with shots a close as 50 yards, none ran more than 20 yards but it's a fear of mine. Shoot one late and you're looking in the dark with minimum blood. I too shot a cow just this weekend on private land fairly close at 150. It was a 215 berger over a mild load from a new 30 nosler at 2850. I shot to pretty much the same spot. The bullet center punched the entrance side rib. It jellied the lungs and destroyed 3 ribs that you could pass a fist trough on the outbound side. One two small fragments passed through the hide. It dumped her in her tracks. [/QUOTE]
