[QUOTE="crazyhorse, post: 1984421, member: 3056"] No such thing as overkill IMO. I like to say that I'm in this sport for deer hunting, not deer tracking! Stay off the shoulders and there is very little difference in my 6mm and my 300WM in terms of meat damage. However, a quick opportunity with a difficult angle can make the smaller calibers troublesome. A portion of our farm is river bottom and all of the runs and swampy areas that come with it. A deer that runs just a couple hundred yards in the wrong direction can literally turn it into an all day event getting him out. The Sierra GC is a pretty tough bullet for its category. If I'm not mistaken Barbour Creek has some testing video where it held up fairly well. [/QUOTE]
