But why not carry a gun that will knock a deer down immediantly? And mine only ran about 40 yards when I killd it. The heart was split in half.
But, I mean, not every shot is going to be right in the heart. I'd rather have a gun that would MOST LIKELY knock the deer down almost anywhere i shot it.
Well I've seen deer run off after shot with a .300 WM so the size doesn't really matter as far as knocking them down immediately. The main thing is too hit them right the first time. A lot of people shot a bigger gun than they can really handle andhave trouble shooting accurately.
