[QUOTE="Orange Dust, post: 2271487, member: 92702"] Yup, Once shot a big 10 point buck running broadside. Broke three legs and removed the off shoulder. I've blown up several learning what different combinations of big guns and bullets will do. We always had two different problems; hunting deer in flooded timber and really big beanfields. Takes a lot of gun for either, and finding a suitable bullet for both is very difficult. Barnes used to make a 180gr .375bullet. Don't know if they still do but it is really gross in a big case. The absolute worst thing I ever tried is a 8MM 175gr Sierra @4k. Will completely disintegrate a coyote. Absolutely nothing left but a bloody spot about 10yds in dia and little pieces of fur floating around. Even the bone. Unbelievable red mist cloud. Not even remotely suitable tor anything edible. Hoped it would be a good LR beanfield load for deer. Made the mistake of trying it.... [/QUOTE]
