I double lunged a buck with a 225gr. Sierra Game King from my .35 Whelen, he ran 30-40yds. pumping blood out both sides. I have hit deer just below the spine for bang-flops both times, once with a 12ga. Forster slug and the most recent with a 240gr. jacketed bullet from a .44 Magnum. My .35 Whelen is a pre'64 M/70 that I had rebored, always wanted to rebore a .308 M/70 FWT to .358 maybe one day.
