Late on the last day of a Wyo deer hunt 20+ yrs ago I didn't hold enuf into the wind with the M70 338 mag, I was shooting 200 gr Speers at max velocity. Hit that buck in the liver on the near side and out the guts on the farside. It made him very sick by the time I got to him he had bled out and died.Some folks don't or won't talk about the shots that didn't hit where they were supposed too, I will. The point?Over here when you wound and lose an animal you only have to live with your own conciousness, in Africa I've allways heard you do that and pay for it as well.Maybe your in a different situation like you allready own the game or your culling and it don't financially make a difference one way or another to you. I don't know and you didn't say. Good luck with deciding between it's too far or it's a chip shot and living with the results when they aren't ideal at all. Magnum Man
