[QUOTE="cabelasken, post: 2404575, member: 117774"] I have witnessed two animals hit in this same location and both were fortunately recovered. The first was an Axis buck in Hawaii about 25 years ago which required a second shot after I caught up to the buck about 1/4 mile down the ravine. The second was a bull elk that was struck with a 338 Lapua fired by one of my hunting partners. After a 3/4 mile chase, another bullet put the bull down for good. In either case, shot location an inch or two up or down would have anchored both animals. Both animals showed signs of being struck by a bullet, but both had the ability to jog when pushed by he herd. [/QUOTE]
