[QUOTE="edge, post: 348867, member: 5030"] I think that the faster you drop blood pressure the faster an animal will die, assuming you are not taking out the central nervous system. Just because an animal hit the dirt does NOT mean it is dead....it actually is not dead for several minutes, after enough brain cells die. For dropping animals I think that fragmenting bullets are probably tops....assuming they reach the vitals :) Hit the leg on the way in and you can probably watch your animal run into the sunset. With that said, I would rather a bullet fail to expand and give full penetration than expand too early and not reach the vitals! edge. [/QUOTE]
