[QUOTE="rscott5028, post: 574792, member: 24624"] Misses and grazing the neck don't count. So, it seems that you put him down in about two shots which was fortunate given shot placement. I struggled with a similar situation last week on a hog and whitetail using 142 SMKs out of my 6.5x284. Both kills were right in the crease behind the shoulder. Both bullets left a huge entrance hole and did not egress. But, the inerds were jello and both were bang flop. So, I am on the fence. Had they been elk or a big hog through the shoulder, I don't think they would've been effective. -- richard [/QUOTE]
