[QUOTE="memtb, post: 2971328, member: 75451"] It’s difficult to argue that logic, especially with small game such as deer. Though, with a large deer and the only shot presented is a steep angling shot…..some of today’s quite frangible bullets may not offer enough penetration to get to the vitals. While the monos do take a bit longer to kill the animal. I’d prefer to use a bullet that is virtually guaranteed to reach/destroy vitals, than pass on a shot with a frangible bullet if adequate penetration is questionable! A shot “not fired” because of possible inadequate penetration……is a guarantee that you will not be eating that animal! memtb [/QUOTE]
