[QUOTE="emp1953, post: 1992995, member: 71817"] Last year a young hunter in our group was using a .257 Weatherby. He was shooting Weatherby ammo with a 120gr Nosler Partition. His first deer at 120 yards completely obliterated the front of the deer. The deer was quartering towards him, his shot clipped the left front shoulder, high, then took out the right shoulder. From about halfway up the backbone forward it was just a mass of jelly. Two days later he shot another at over 450 yds. Less damage, but he didn't hit any bone this time. Obviously too much gun for the size of the animal and the shorter range. [/QUOTE]
