anyone?
anyone ever shoot a deer with a 338 ultra mag or bigger or something about that big??? heres the story....my friend was hunting with one....terrible shot and misses and wounds deer every year...so every year he gets a bigger gun...this year he done it again....a 338UM....loaded with 89 grains of powder and a 200gr nosler ballistic tip...... when me and my dad bring deer back he tends to get mad/jealous....just because he wants deer but isnt much of a hunter...not dissing him or anything i known him all my life...he goes hunting a day or 2 a year and thats it....doesnt scout or anything....well last year we brought deer back and it made him so mad he left camp and didnt come back.......this year he was at it again...storms out of camp grabs his gun and within 45 mins is back with a little tiny doe...maybe 80lbs.....the holes were normal...20 or 30 cal holes.....nothing huge at all...my 3006 has done way more....meat not bruised or anything excessive......i really dont know if he shot it....i mean when these bullets hit dirt it blew ALL over the place.....its like you light a GIANT firecracker where these things hit....i think the bullet moving about 4000fps would exploded or went right through but i think the shock alone would bruised the heck out of the whole area....what do you think? this is a kid that got pretty jealous.....and always has a decint bit of money on him.....and i honestly can see him buying a deer off somebody.....what do you think? anyone actually know?? i was just wondering....everyone at camp tends to think he didnt shot it......heck he could barely made it to his spot and back in 45 mins with a deer on the way back.....he would had to move pretty hard with that deer to make it back that fast.....alot of guys use the same trail he does to get to his spot......waht do you think?? i mean i know the bullets not designed for deer and may not exploded......but i think it woulda bruised most of it or something....more then the little bit it did.....and no im not jealous.....ive killed deer......i killed a doe much much larger then the one he came back with that day....it just amazes me something that big did so little to a deer.......anyone? thanx.......just thinking.....id like to know.....i think it would done more
