Sounds like it could be a good idea with high shoulder shoot to hit it again in if possible.I had an extreme case of this happen 3 years ago. I hit a fallow doe at about 500m from memory with a 156gr Berger from a 6.5PRC. The animal dropped instantly. We had to navigate some terrain to approach the animal, so it was >15min until we walked up on it. As I approached it, it jumped to its feet and I could see a 2-3in exit wound high on the off side as it disappeared in the scrub. I searched the area where it dropped and found a 1in diameter shard of bone in a small pool of blood. They're tenacious creatures.
