Game shot to hell like some pictured in this thread only serves to remind me of the lessons I've already learned. If you have to shoulder shoot something aim for the far one to avoid ruining all your eating. Never ever saw a NPT thoroughly destroy the whole animal with one shot like some pictured on this thread.

That would be bad advice where bergers/scenars are concerned., shoot the onside shoulder with them it'll be fine..offside shoulder you might be able to throw a cat through if it exits..

I'm with you on the NPT tho, i've never seen them do anything too impressive either..Never anything better than a plain jane power point. whistle
