[QUOTE="rooster740, post: 504807, member: 10582"] You better have thick skin if you mention the lethality of arrow vs. bullet! Ouch, I am still missing part of my ***!I have been witness to less then stellar terminal balistics by hot rod magnums incomparison to some of the bloody messes arrows have made, though not common. I have a 308 Winchester featherweight stainless with a 22 inch barrel with a 4.5x 14 leupold (saddle gun) that I love. I shoot 150gr tsx @3000fps and 168gr. tsx @2850fps over Varget .75-1 moa groups . I have a heavey barrel 308 on a Winchester pushfeed action with a 6.5x 20 leupold (Truck gun) that I shoot a plethora of jacketed bullets from getting .5-.75 moa. Both of these have killed many elk by myself, friends, first year hunters, new hunters, and as the guides rifle that shoots really good and does not cut the eyebrow, AGAIN!. I have killed elk past 500 yards with my 308. I have also killed elk with a bow, and alway am often amazed how fast they die! [/QUOTE]
