[QUOTE="ridge rider, post: 822739, member: 17933"] I shoot deer in Australia with my 338-378 Wby (300 grain SMK at 2830 fps) and also with my 338 SnipeTac (300 grain SMK at 3250 fps) Have taken Red deer and Elk/Wapiti and Red/Elk hybrids at 560 / 762 / and recently at 850 yards and closer at 200 yards. At all of those ranges the animals were obliterated and literally dropped dead on the spot. They did not take one step as they died on the spot. In fact the recovered bullet from the 850 yard shot started off at 300 grains and ended up at 39 grains, yes 39 grains and it flattened the Red/Elk hybrid at 850 yards. All shots were shoulder shots, broke the shoulder and created massive trauma in that region. Meat damage was enormous. Hope this helps to put things into some perspective. [/QUOTE]
