I SHOT A BUCK AT ABOUT 40 YARDS SQUARE IN THE CHEST WITH LIGHTFIELDS COMMANDER (sorry) 3" slugs. there was no damage to the diaphragm. do you guys think at this range there should have been and that the penetration of this slug won't be good say at 100+ yards. it looked like 3 of his 6 lobes of his lungs were destroyed but i really didn't look to closely at them. he went thirty yards and died within minutes. i only ask this question because I'm thinking of hunting over some large clover fields this week and i don't want to be taking 100+ yard shots if all I'm going to do is wound a deer and have them run to the next county to die. thanks for your response men and go kill a slob
