[QUOTE="diggler1833, post: 4030332, member: 48072"] I'm not saying that the blog in the original post is B.S. However the guy shares the same "name" as the television show...and he never gave his full name and place of occupation. This is not how legitimate data points are shared in any profession. You couldn't cite this article in any college paper without taking a hit on your grade. In fact, anyone of us could create just a post somewhere that appeared just as legitimate. There's also ZERO pellets in the ocular region (eye area) of the x-ray. Color me suspicious. That being said; the wide pattern in the x-ray lacked concentration of pellets in any spot making me think that if this photo is legit, there was considerable distance between the shooter and target (probably in the 20+ yard range). I have watched (more anecdotal evidence here) a couple YouTube videos of a guy who hunted deer with a traditional shotgun-length barrel and #4 buck. If I remember correctly, his kills were at ~25 yards. His pellet recovery noted that nothing made it deeper than about 10 inches, and really the lethality was unimpressive. However he did kill both deer with a single shot, so there's that. [/QUOTE]
