[QUOTE="budlight, post: 443331, member: 2939"] I'm not a classic heart lung broad side shooter. I have the best not move from the spot kills forward from the shoulders neck shots. or straight on chest. or right between the eyes looking at me I was trying to think of other elk.................. I got one after calling that got spooked like 75 degree angle trotting away and I had to aim in an opening where I thought it would go . I did not want to hit guts so I shot high in th rib cage and the bullet went out inside its front shoulder by its neck. It kind of trotted another 30 yrds and piled up Elk are not tuff I've got then all with one shot kills and my first was with a 30-6 I'm a spine or head shooter. I got awy from lung broad side when I had a deer run a 1/2 mile and nearly lost it as it. bullet weight. You want something to expand and not blow up. On the other ennd of the scale you don't want hard copper hpbt's that go through a 1/2 inch of steel. [/QUOTE]
