[QUOTE="Bobby B., post: 320777, member: 16724"] FWIW, last season I shot at and killed 5 deer with the 168 VLD out of my 7RM. The first was MD at 30 yds broadside and I aimed for the high shoulder shot. Entrance wound was small but the exit wound was huge, maybe the size of a dinner plate. I won't do that again. Second was a WT at 200 yds broadside and I placed the cosshairs just behind the front leg and 1/2 way up. DRT, I mean DRT. Small entrance and small exit. Third was a WT broadside at 100 yds. Same point of impact and same results at the last one. Fourth was a MD broadside at 200 yds. Impact was just behind the front leg and 1/3 way up. The deer took off running, covered mabe 50 yds in a tight circle and was dead. Small entrance and small exit. Fifth was a MD at 437 yds quartering towards my right. Impact was in the near shoulder and it dropped right there. The SIL cleaned that one so I'm not sure what the exit wound looked like. Bobby B. [/QUOTE]
