First off, let me welcome both of you guys to the board. I hope you have a great time here.
Yeah, shooting them through the shoulders with a fast moving bullet tends to make the shoulders a mess. I have been using 150 gr. Barnes XLC bulelts out of a .300 Win Mag for my whitetail hunting and the damage hasn't been too bad, but all the shots have been through the ribs. The Barnes bullets supposedly create a wound channel that looks like a football. A small entry hole and exit hole, with a ton of energy deposited on the inside of the body cavity which equals a ton of organ damage.
I am looking at getting a .25-06 next year, so I am interested to hear what everybody has to say about this.
