    Meat damage was as you would expect depentant on the ranges and bone breaking ability was great at all these ranges.
    Most of the meat animals I have shot with the combination were the more conventional heart lung shot and meat damage was OK also.
    But when shooting the stags I prefer to go for the shoulder and remove all doubt and Im not short of venison.

    When I want to go faster ( and further ) I just use the 300 WSM so hadn't pushed 308/125s to the 3000 I believe some are apparently able to.
