[QUOTE="HARPERC, post: 2274080, member: 30671"] Personally I've seen more good placement, with the "WRONG" bullet leave the rails, then I have, "GOOD" bullets being placed poorly causing issue. Polar bear hunts are like $60,000, not many taking a .22LR to emulate some lucky Inuit. I say lucky as not every 200-250lb pig in a pen succumbs to such a shot. Being as I start a hunt by selecting an appropriate firearm, and ammunition, before there is any shot opportunity put me on the side of controlling the things that can be controlled. I remember O'Connor arguing shoulder shots could be ignored, as the average hunter didn't know where it was located any way. If you can't hit it on purpose out do you miss it on purpose. Good bullets open up different placement possibilities. Just me. [/QUOTE]
