[QUOTE="ScottB, post: 452186, member: 28606"] Interesting indeed!! What about the PDog shot with a 17Rem vs. a 338LM? The result of hitting the PD with the 17 Remington was explosive, while the .338LM just knocked it over(boring result). Although I know this question was orignally posed about shooting very large animals, the topic could be turned around when shooting the tiny ones. Shot an 8-point at 75yards with an Armalite AR30M chambered in 338LM using a 250gr projectile. Bullet struck the animal broadside taking both lungs and the top of the heart(inspected while cleaning the animal), the deer spun around facing the opposite direction and walked 150yards and laid down. While it was laying there looking back at me, I grabbed the rifle my son(big stand alone stand-lots of room) was carrying and put the finishing shot on him. The .308Win with 150gr finished it. The big Armalite was sold as the 308Win will do everything I need it to do at any range. Scott [/QUOTE]
