[QUOTE="TwoMore, post: 1651926, member: 95166"] no matter the velocity , the key is to transfer the highest amount of the bullets energy on the animal without fragging the bullet or blowing out the other side with minimal energy transferred like in my pic from earlier post the deer I double lunged didnt even look hit it just ran off,but there was serious clockwork strewed where he was standing. so I imagine the bullet was still moving good after it passed through. if you shoot a rifle that is not magnum caliber a bullet with less sectional density is needed. I wouldn't shoot a partition in a 243 win. but a 90 grain BT will dropum. my youngest son shoots a 223 wssm with a 60 grain partition at 3800 that will destroy meat and turn the inside to haggis but my 338 rum just puts a nice hole in them and the meat is not jelly. over the past ten years I have just moved away from lung or heart shots, just to much dead running, neck or high shoulder just works better for me in the thickets and swamps we hunt [/QUOTE]
