Quite often people talk on here about the strange things bullets sometimes do.
I knew a crack shot rancher years ago told me about a big crippled stray he shot in the head at about 20 yards in the ranch dump to keep it from suffering. 22.
Ten days later it had crawled half a mile to try and get a drink of his dogs water in the ranchers back yard, half its head rotted off.
Cured him.
Never was a man who did much shooting where he didnt miss or have crap happen.
Over half the head offers non immediately lethal matter. Most people who think they can send the message to fire and ALWAYS hit the brain before a deer can move its head dont know much about deer or shooting.
I will agree, some can make a noise and make a good head shot before the deer drops its head back down, provided another distraction doesnt occur to attract its attention before the bullet gets there.
And yet millions of people throw sticks at 300fps every year at deer and none utters a condemnation.
Odd that.
