[QUOTE="MudRunner2005, post: 823850, member: 12995"] I've never killed a moose or elk.....But I have dropped some whitetails in my day. I know that they aren't hard to kill, being thin-skinned, but those are some tough SOB's. I've shot some that just didn't want to die...I sat around for a few minutes in the stand, got down, walked over to it, and it was still kickin at me so I had to put one in it's gourd to finish it off, even though I lung-shot it... I'm going to be giving the VLD's a shot this year to see how they do. In the past I've used everything from Sierra Gamekings, to Trophy Bonded Bearclaws, to Barnes TSX, to Accubonds. I did NOT like the Gamekings or Bearclaws. They ruined too much meat. The Barnes and Accubonds worked perfectly. And I'm hoping the VLD's will do the same. I'm really praying they will, because they're the best shooting bullets I've ever shot out of my rifles, as far as groupings and accuracy goes. However, on that note... I have faith in ANY hunting bullet being able to kill anything, minus things in Africa, b/c that's a whole different ballgame. I wouldn't see why the VLD's would not work fine...Bullets are bullets. They have 1 specific purpose to be shot into animals and dispatch them humanely. I mean, we could sit and argue semantics and specifics, but when it all gets boiled down to it, a hunting bullet is a hunting bullet and they will all do what they were designed to do if put in the right place.
