+1 on the fact that most gun kills are realted to hydrostatic shock. Just think about all the hunting shows and the number of times you have seen deer "planted". Wound channels don't have enough time to work at that point. I would say that the the need for a good wound channel when gun hunting would be nice with a perfect broadside shoot that hits nothing but internals and muscle. That deer will die but will need some tracking IMO.
When they are drt, it's usually a cns hit...Like a high shoulder shot...
