[QUOTE="Bowfishn, post: 1306026, member: 56875"] Reminds me of when we did a lot of Chuck shooting in the 70's we often used a 30-06 with 165 gr bullets traveling at 3000+ fps., 10 to 15 lb Eastern Woodchuck being hit by a 165 gr @ 3000 is like shooting a dear with a cartridge that would make the 50 bmg seem like a BB gun. Several hundred Woodchucks and none of them were thrown back from the impact, some would jump straight up in the air clearing a barbed wire fence from the shock on the nerves but no flipping end for end landing several feet behind where they were hit.
