[QUOTE="bailey1474, post: 57714, member: 3249"] Hopefully you won't hit them in the shoulder. While it is an ideal shot if you don't want to track them, it will probably ruin both shoulders. If you put it right behind the shoulder meat damage will be minimal, but there is a slim chance you may have to track the animal. Probably not very far as it will have a fist sized hole in its side. If you are simply hunting for meat, this is definately not the round you should shoot. I'm sure a 55 gr. Nolser BT @ 4050 fps out of my 243 would not be the round of choice for fur hunters either, but it works for me. Kind of hard on the pelts though. To each their own, I guess. [/QUOTE]
