[QUOTE="ejg, post: 1606856, member: 12381"] After shooting Sika Fallow and a few Red deer for over 15years, ~20 per year, I settled on 168gr A-Max after using several 150's for a while. I get exits on stags at 300m and good expansion to about 500yds. At 600yds expansion drops. Below 200yds one can go neck/head if the situation is right. With a soft bullet I stay away from the leg bone. Try put the bullet behind the front leg about an inch or two below the spine. they might run but most only 30yds or so. My 308's have 20-22" barrels. Closest shot ~5yds, furthest 600yds. Great cartridge. edi [/QUOTE]
