[QUOTE="Plinker147, post: 2950679, member: 88320"] We shot 8 bull elk, oryx , deer with175 EH out of 280AI, and 180 EH out of 30-06. Shots from 200-600 yards, they have dumped everything without fail. Some of the elk were high shoulder shots, dumped them instantly. I tend to think you missed the mark just a touch. One reason I dont do a high shoulder shot, there is a dead zone that a bullet can potentially pass through. My hunting partner likes the high shoulder and has worked for him flawlessly. [/QUOTE]
