[QUOTE="Remi, post: 5839573, member: 21887"] So the animal that my friend lost with a 7 mag would have been recovered with more firepower? I'm not lying to anyone. People that think that extra horsepower makes up for yugo shooting would be the ones telling tales. Facts are facts, people hit animals poorly. You can lie to yourself all you want but that doesn't change the facts. Poorly hit animals may or may not be recovered regardless of what they're hit with, that's another fact. As for waiting for perfect angles, no. There isn't an angle I would pass with my 243 that I would take with a larger cartridge. I shoot stout bullets that will get the job done in everything I shoot. That's more of BS touted by people, having to wait for perfect angles. Again, poor shooting is poor shooting. One guy around here went away from his .338 Win Mag because it just didn't kill good and he lost a few deer. Last I heard he was using a 375 H&H, he also invested in a dog to help track. Apparently hitting them in the guts and in the ass isn't super effective with anything, it's almost like you need to hit them where you're supposed to. [/QUOTE]
