[QUOTE="lloydsmale, post: 638662, member: 41442"] I agree with max. Ive shot many deer with the 6.5 120 and have ate everyone i pulled the trigger on. Ill add that about any deer you hit on the shoulder with a high velocity round is going to do alot of damage. In many cases a premium bullet will even do worse. Some of the most damaged deer ive shot have been with partitions. I personal think that its because a premium bullet like a partition will penetrate deaper. Shoot a deer on the shoulder with a bt and you will surely loose that shoulder. Shoot one with a partition and im betting you will loose the off side shoulder too. I shot probably an average of 50 deer a year doing crop damage and anymore if i cant shoot behind the shoulder i dont shoot. I know sometimes when a trophy buck comes out you dont want to wait or cant wait for a perfect shot but ive never seen a case where you could shoot a deer right on the shoulder where you couldnt place the bullet behind the shoulder.
