Texas Rick,
You have explained it very well.
My brother in law shot a buck that was standing in brush. He thought he was aiming for the chest but the deer was looking over its shoulder and he actually shot it in the but.
The .308 penetrated the full length of the deers body luckily.
People that shoot black bear usually prefer the big fat bullets but some guys only have one rifle
that they use for everything.
I will use the .375 with 220 Hornady from now on.
I like it even better than my 35 Whelen.
