[QUOTE="Starlite, post: 1778297, member: 112246"] At shorter ranges I Prefer To shoot deer especially, in the ear (just under and behind actually). In fact I’m wondering if I should take head shots at longer distance too. However I’ll leave that for another discussion. I’m curious about all the curiosity WRT exist vs no exit. If you’ve chosen the right rifle, right bullet for the right animal you intended to hunt then exit or no exit is not a factor, is it? It should be a humanely made shot. At 50-200m there should be plenty of energy and expansion for minimal searching. At 200-400M even with exit wounds there should be minimal searching, and if so, the blood trail will be very evident. I believe skill is your beat weapon beyond 500M. IMHO regardless of exit or no exit if the majority of our hunts’ aren’t humanely done then we need to rehearse or rethink our plan. I read this quote a long time ago. Fail To Plan-Plan to fail. Just my 2c [/QUOTE]
