[QUOTE="MudRunner2005, post: 916042, member: 12995"] I killed 2 deer this year with 7mm Berger 168 VLD's, both 120-125 yards, and lost virtually no meat. You gotta know where to hit them with Bergers to conserve meat...Like NOT shooting them in the middle of the shoulder. You'll toast both of those shoulder roasts. Shoot them in the low-forward shoulder about 6" above the brisket, and 6" from where the neck starts, and it will expell all it's energy right into the pump-house, or right behind the shoulder for a double-lung shot, and not in the shoulder at all. Then you'll save every bit of meat, but you'll probably have to track it for 20-30 yards. If he wants a big 6.5, go with the 6.5 STW and shoot the regular Nosler Accubonds...That's what I'd go for if I was looking for what you have described he wants. [/QUOTE]
