Krp....well said. And to clarify my position I am eluding to shoulder blade the scapular bone. On a broadside elk.If one aims at that point above the the exit of the front leg picks one third to one half chest (about where the center of the neck is) you are in my opinion the epi center of the good stuff. This gives you a good chance to stone em. ( I still don't know what DRT means). It also stays away from the guts. If you think bone and blood is a mess....try rumen juice soaked flank steak and tenderloin. If one moves the point of aim caudal or ventral to that point then a error radius diameter of a pie plate will put some of that error radius no longer over the thorax, spine and neck (all lethal targets) but in fact will cover the abdomen.
