[QUOTE="wild_musk, post: 2932102, member: 28026"] Killed a 5x5 Sun morning with my Win 1886. I used the 250g Hammer at roughly 2500fps. I shot 2x, once in the left shoulder, once in the right. I recovered the bottom half of first bullet under the hide of the far shoulder, petals shed. The other passed through. First shot was about 40 yards, and I really thought I'd anchor him, but he turned himself around and went 20 yards or so before pulling up and hanging his head. I shot again and he went down, got back up, went another few steps and fell for good. 3 of us could find no blood until the spot he staggered, which I'm sort of writing off as a fluke. Bullet placement just behind each shoulder. One ripped up the top of the heart. Idk. [/QUOTE]
