[QUOTE="1894, post: 11183, member: 1958"] If I were you I would place a thin sheet of plywood under the first newspaper. Wet newsprint quite accurately mimics flesh but it does not take account of bone. A thin sheet of ply mimics a rib, a thicker one a shoulder. You may be shocked at the difference. It made a dramatic difference to my tests with my 9.3. 12-13cm on newspaper and the expanded (read fragmented) bullet photos would start to ring alarm bells with me. My roe stalking may be radicaly different but I think about lighter slipperier and even more accurate bullets at the keyboard but end up taking standing shots at bucks next to cover as they browse woodland edges. At this point I think less of fractions of MOA but a whole heap about bullet performance including reliable penetration if I slightly misread the angle. Don't get me wrong I'm not a heavy tough bullet hunter (90gr 6mm ballistic tip and 100gr 6.5mm ballistic tip for me) but there is a limit beyond which I won't go for (I think)sound reasons. [/QUOTE]
