[QUOTE="Stiltsville, post: 1922572, member: 114352"] You don't shoot large animals in the shoulder with a quasi varmint bullet. You shoot them in the shoulder to "break them down". As big bears, Cape Buffalo or to avoid trailing. Of you shoot in the heart/lungs almost any bullet will work. I generally like shoulder shots as trailing is minimal. I use monometals. Learned this back East with deer slugs. If you lung shot a Whitetail it could run 100 yards or more. When you got to it you might find some yahoo claiming it as his. Shoulder shots avoided that !
