Default RE: Bullet Placement

Sounds like some folks like to shoot, but don't like to HUNT!

Aiming for the center of heart/lung area, will give you at least 3X the margin for error, and still be lethal, QUICKLY!

I have never heard of a lung/heart shot deer going any where near a mile before expiring! Most within 50 yards!

"Because I can," is never a good excuse for doing ANYTHING!

Having to track onto another's property and/or other hunters getting your deer, is the best argument that can be given FOR head shots! Weighing that against the things that can go wrong with head shots, MORE than cancels out that factor!

If it weren't so RIDICULOUS, the use of a light, high-power cartridge, because of a populated area would be HILARIOUS!

Keep writing! Your making the BEST argument AGAINST your own self!

Yeah, it may be legal, but sooner or later you'll find out for yourself that its wrong! There's much more to HUNTING than SHOOTING!
