And of course that happens even when they leave a wound channel 13-15", losing 85% of their mass enroute, even if vitals are much further away.

Unfortunately not every shot lands as intended and broadside shots where the vitals are only 2-3" away are not always the case.

No, I'm not a Ruger bigot - just an unabashed fan of their revolvers, M77's and #1's.

A good .30-06 is a 99% solution.
