[QUOTE="WildRose, post: 1777228, member: 30902"] If shooting through brush is the norm rather than the exception high velocity small diameter bullets are not the right choice. Something like a 30-06, 444, .338 Marlin, 45-70 loaded with flat nosed heavy jacketed HP's or flat points, one of the mono's like the Peregrine Bushmaster, or shotgun slugs would be a much better choice. Small bullets defelect and shell out very easily with impacts in access of 2600fps. In my part of Texas shooting though lots of heavy brush is the norm unless you're hunting wheat fields so you have to be very careful to pick your shots and put them through keyholes, pass on them, or be shooting something much more appropriate for brush hunting like those rounds listed above.
