Shot placement with a muzzleloader?
Until I got my first muzzleloader about 9 months ago, I wasn't much of a gun hunter. 1 deer with a shotgun, as opposed to 6 with a bow. I know where to aim with a broadhead. But is the behind the shoulder shot the best for a muzzleloader? Reason I ask is I took that very shot on a small sixpointer, and got two tiny holes with a miniscule blood trail. It ended up being shot and tagged by another hunter. My theory is the bullet impacted between the ribs and had no resistance to expand on. Great for an arrow, though.
With all this talk of bullet selection, I hear hardly anything about where to put that bullet. So, where do I shoot? Pics are helpful...thanks.
