Classic, if you never found the doe how do you know? I have used the Remington 80 gr. PSP in my 6MM Remington on a bunch of deer before I switched to the 95 gr. Ballistic Tips (big sale at Nosler pro shop) and found them deadly. I wouldn't know about shoulder hits as I never hit a shoulder bone on impact. I shot for ribs or the neck just in front of the shoulder and always got the deer. These are an earlier designed bullet and they are very similar in action to the 85 gr. Sierra BTHP.

Dog I rescued in January
