[QUOTE="Hespco, post: 1615101, member: 109476"] A lot of what you say makes perfect sense to me. Bullet placement & construction for the specific game is essential. I have had hunters using heavy magnums & large tough bullets wound both deer & elk. Watched one hunter shoot an elk at about 80 yds with a 338 mag five times before getting it on the ground. Then a final shot had to be made. Afraid of the recoil & jerking the trigger. Most hunters I see with heavy cal's tend to make poor shot placement. Lighter recoiling rifle shooters tend to place their shots more accurately. The majority of hunters I see just don't shoot their rifles enough to perfect their shooting skills. Moore practice & perhaps some professional instruction on shooting skills like squeezing the trigger. Perfecting close range off hand skill. [/QUOTE]
