[QUOTE="73driver, post: 1562180, member: 36473"] Flabergasted that a 30Cal 185gr going that fast is not knocking a whitetail *** over kettle that close. Had a buddy take a whitetail with a 300WTHBY at 40 yards. Buck never flinched and took half dozen steps then flopped over. I also took my first whitetail at 50 yards with 150GR sierra out of 06. That bullet hit shoulder blade at a quarter on facing and bullet fragmented and blew bone and lead through lungs and internals behind diaphragm. I saw feet in my scope as the buck flipped over and sucker landed dead. Wow 185 that close and buck not dead??? Thats enough mass of lead and energy to cause havoc on the internals. Me wonders if a broad side hit just on edge of vitals??? [/QUOTE]
