[QUOTE="DJ Fergus, post: 2300663, member: 93895"] I've made instant kills & far from instant kills. Many people will say that shot placement makes all of the difference but I've gutted animals with half of their heart gone and they still ran 40 yards. Bullet choice and impact velocity makes the difference between the animal being DRT or running. High velocity which contributes to hydrostatic shock will stun an animal. That along with enough damage to the vitals will provide instant kills. Higher impact velocity will provide instant kills more often than not. At distance, the bullet may have slowed enough that it lessens the likelihood of hydrostatic shok. [/QUOTE]
