I like this shot myself, and have used it on the 'edges of those bad holes" to South Africa/Namibia/Texas Exotics where if I lost the animal I still paid for it! Both saved my "bacon" many times, ha. Some say 'wait for the perfect shot"....I tend to use a bullet/load that gives me an edge on bone breaking/hard angle shots when it comes to the above scenarios. Distance travelled/money spent + trophy fees= how bad do I want him? Yes, I've passed many opportunities just because I didn't want to shoot or didn't feel confident of the shot. Other times, I poured it on him! ha. Lots of fun either way.
