I shot a cow in the ass this season with my ML. Shooting uphill the 385 grain bullet entered the rump, just barely nicked the spine, put a hole in the liver and destroyed the lungs. The big bullet just puts holes in meat and doesn't turn it into jello. There was virtually no damage to meat. Was the shot ethical? The animal piled up in about 20' and I'd do it again in a minute.
