[QUOTE="sp6x6, post: 343974, member: 21869"] I was in rifle club as kid, with my buddies we shot 100's of rnds a week in 4 position, competed at state. Started hunting w/243, Dad told me to shoot elk in head because of small caliber, so that is what I DID. think it was old school ideas. I shot about 10 in a row, then I MISSED 4 head shots one season and gave it up. Shot 2 w/ pistol at bow type yardage. Met a guy in the bighole years ago hunting w/22-250, only head shot elk,old timer. Met a guy in SA that did game control and shot 10-20 animals in a evening head shot. I have had 2 long follow ups on neck shots, one on bull w/340 WM 1/2 mile, said never again, and one on muley, 2 mile 325 WSM, BOTH shot under 100 yrds. I am a fan of the boiler room shot. [/QUOTE]
