[QUOTE="birdiemc, post: 1794934, member: 29632"] I think this is a big consideration...where are you shooting? If you have to shoot through dense brush like this, maybe a bad choice. Long range, maybe a bad choice. Where I get the opportunities to hunt, it's almost always in a blind shooting down a sendero at animals standing around a feeder. No brush to contend with and usually 100yds or less. And yes always have the choice of head shot or broadside...if I wanted to dial in all the way I could pick which hair I want to aim at. But we often forget to consider the hunting conditions and skill of others when making blanket statements in general, which typically leads to discussions like this one. [/QUOTE]
