Never thought I would shot an animal in the a$s, but the shot presented itself, and I wanted the shot before being busted. It was instant death !! The bullet traveled all the way to the lungs, and blew out the entire side of the animal. Like the pressure of the guts exploded outwards, and left a gapping hole. Literally guts hanging out the side with a blood explosion. Bang flop. No running, no tracking, just death.

I'd certainly do it again, with out hesitation.

i shot an elk up the tail pipe once. the bullet was found in the heart.




it had been shot through the lungs and turned to run away. it dropped instantly from a 30 cal 180 gr speer.

Never have, never will as the first shot. As a follow-up on a wounded animal yes. Simply don’t need an animal this bad, with a high probability of failure. You hear about the success of this shot, but never hear the failure story. Does not sound too ethical, yeah I took a shot at his ass and lost him. Hmmmm really tell me more.

Not a high probability of failure with a straight away shot. Folks just put a stigma on the shot that they can't get over.

I’ve gotten a few doubles on hogs with the Texas heart after the first rings. I also killed my first turkey through the fan as a kid.

But i hate fielding dress a deer that i shot in the bow or stern.

This bullet traveled from the rear ham, all the way to the lung, and found in the hide just before the shoulder. Never imagined how deadly this shot is. No tracking, no lost deer, nothing.
