Sheridan I would like to have a dime for every hunter who told me they took and made the perfect shot only to never find the deer. Every time I hear that I cringe under my breath. How the **** would you know where you hit a deer if you did not recover the animal!! But theyswear they knowexactly where they hit the deer.

One time a fellow had his hunt on camera. He swore the shot was good. He looked at the shot on camera, and still swore the shot was great. We found the deer two days later--GUT SHOT(BOW).

This pertains to your 7mm question. I have seen several animals hit badly with the 175 grain Sierra bullet from a 7mm mag. DEAD DEER. Tom.
