[QUOTE="SaskShooter, post: 657912, member: 42520"] What's with all the people saying "A .243 will be fine, just shoot them behind the ear and they will drop on the spot, I have no doubts it will work."? A .22 LR will kill them with a shot behind the ear! So will a 20mm Vulcan. Every animal will drop when shot in the BRAIN! Maybe they'll twitch a bit, but it will ALWAYS be an instant kill. Pretty much anything in North America will drop from a shot to the head, especially with a centerfire rifle. People need to stop acting so surprised when that the Behind-the-Ear-Shot is an instant kill. I live on a farm, I regularly kill 1500-1600lb steers with a .22 LR and a 38 grain hollowpoint. "Shoot it in the head, that should kill it quick." No s***, man. [/QUOTE]
