[QUOTE="hmbleservant, post: 518128, member: 28174"] Where do yall aim on whitetailed deer sized game while using bullets like berger vld (hunting bullets) ect. broadside: I've heard high lung (or mid body) vertically and centered to lung horizontally. Are you aiming to minimize meat damage and maximize penetration? Or are you aiming to simply increase your odds of vitals by centering on the lungs alltogether? Is there a spot that produces more instant drops than another? Also, for those that use the VLD's are you getting full pass thru or not? Will these bullets penetrate shoulders easily at extended ranges? I'm new to the longrange stuff. I've always hunted 100 yards and under and usually take the neck shot at those ranges to save meat. But I've seen some vid's of folks dropping animals in there tracks at hundreds of yards range (with chest shots or spine shots i don't know). im shooting a 25-06 incase that matters (115gr VLD soon) Thanks everyone [/QUOTE]
