    just wanted to add. bull tahr 265mtr Berger 87gr vld hunting, shoot was little high. I moved and flicked it 6" high and right so the
    bullet went just below the spine with the base coming to rest under the skin. Bullet blow up meet that it chewed up 3 vertebrae and the tops of both lungs. Wanted to go with something heavier but was not happy with accuracy. ran out of time.
    End result bullet did it's thing, compensated for my poor placement and the tahr dropped on the spot.
