[QUOTE="Varmint Hunter, post: 2934366, member: 313"] Shoulder shots destroy shoulder meat no matter what bullet you use. Even the monos will send high velocity bone frags everywhere. I kill most of my whitetails in NC. The deer are fairly light/small and there isn't much meat on a shoulder anyway. Most of the outfitters tell you to shoot for the shoulders because they don't want to track deer in the swamps or wherever because of the snakes or other hazards. Nothing wrong with a double lung shot with a frangible bullet. Deer are usually dead in 30-40yds and most hunters don't save the ribs. [/QUOTE]
