[QUOTE="WildRose, post: 2441434, member: 30902"] Is placement a word you don't understand? It simply means it didn't hit where it was designed to perform optimally. At low impact velocity the Accubond doesn't expand well when hitting only soft tissue so a "lung shot" is not likely to give you a clean quick kill especially if it's high or a little too far back where there's no major blood vessels being ruptured ensuring a quick bleed out. This is an Accubond with impact velocity of 1800FPS. [ATTACH type="full"]340757[/ATTACH] This is an Accubond impacting at 3,400FPS. [ATTACH type="full"]340758[/ATTACH] This is an Accubond at a modest impact velocity of 2,400 FPS. [ATTACH type="full"]340759[/ATTACH] At any of those velocities it will give you a clean quick kill but only if it is put where it will do the most good. In the case of the low velocity impact that's going to need to be a very precise shot in the heart or heart/lungh junction or the spine. Once an animal's BP hits zero there's only enough remaining oxygen to the brain or muscles for a few seconds of travel. Of course, when you put one through the spine all neurological activity beyond that point ceases and they aren't going anywhere if that hit is at or in front of the shoulders.
