[QUOTE="7070yshot, post: 2266208, member: 114427"] Fair enough. I’ve seen crazy hits as well. I’d say 99% of neck shots with a precise rifle does an amazing job. Like you I’ve seen what look like good shots do absolutely nothing. Once had a friend try to harvest a doe with a 308. 130y She hardly moves on impact. Bullet in/out neat little pencil hole. He took a second shot on neck and spin busted her. Flop. The heart lung shot wasn’t and he missed everything by shooting too low and using match ammo - has zero expansion just made a small hole with hardly any blood. He was an idiot and I was too for not checking his ammo. Luckily the neck/spine shot took care of things. Go easy bro and hope you harvest a big one this year [/QUOTE]
