[QUOTE="j99tc88, post: 3959872, member: 51270"] In my years I’ve decided that any bullet any weight or speed can put a deer down with neck or spine shots. I like shoulder shots because they don’t run. And because spine or neck shots are harder at longer ranges. Behind the shoulder a heavy bullet of the correct construction causes extensive trauma but they can still travel a long way. A slug at close range or 45-70 was always my preferred behind the shoulder gun. Big hole lots of blood loss quickly. I have never shot a deer or hog much over 200 yards and most under 100, 270 has been my go to for years, and still the shoulder for me. [/QUOTE]
