[QUOTE="DJ Fergus, post: 1862611, member: 93895"] The first two reasons I originally moved to high velocity magnums was cause I didn't want to deal with chances of animals crossing property lines after being shot & to keep them from heading off into deep gorges where I hunt. Both of those happened to me before. So I moved to higher velocity cartridges pushing softer & quicker expanding bullets. So far, I haven't had to go off into a gorge on foot & pull one out or cross a property line to recover an animal. I don't completely disagree with those who stress well placed shots but if I could make the perfect shot every time under any condition with any amount of wind, then the only cartridge I would need would be a 6mm br, brx, bra ,Dasher, etc.... Then I would just shoot them in the neck every time. [/QUOTE]
