    I know where your coming from but whats the right calibre Munsey? I have seen plenty of animals soak up all manner of big calibres and run, some never too be seen again. I like to try dropping them in their tracks.
    If I am shooting meat for myself, I get close and it is always head or neck shot, so when I stick them they bleed out for ages as the heart is usually still pumping.
    If someone can say every animal they have shot in the body has dropped on the spot, I would say they havnt shot many animals. There is no perfect calibre or shot in my opinion.
