[QUOTE="Salmonchaser, post: 1530558, member: 107697"] 1980 I was hunting in hells Canyon, for the record it is much deeper and steeper now then it was 40 years ago. Hit a bull 4 times in front of the diaphragm with 180 gr. Partitions out of an 06. 350 yards+/-. Never crushed any big bone. He was hurt, made it to the ridge top, died and slid over 1000 feet down towards the snake river. Next year had an 8mm Remington, intentionally drove 220 grains through the heart of a rag horn at 100 yards. When I got to where he was standing there were chunks of heart as big as my thumb all over the snow. He went 200 yards w/o a heart. Maybe Dad and Gramps were right. Aim to break the far shoulder, works every time. That's what I do. If I get both shoulders that's ok too. [/QUOTE]
