Just wondering ...

This ain't a cast...more of a flip.

The 7-08 makes and retains more energy,than the 45-70................

And an RPG probably wouldn't deflect off course when traveling through brush. When it comes to hunting rounds they all deflect.

I've found that the harder you jerk the trigger, the faster the boolit flies..................

I tried the 7mm-08 and I didn't like the results at all. The .45-70 is 10 times better for deer sized game IMO.

FWIW, center chest hits are pretty much a guarantee that a deer will run. It matters not what you hit them with, provided it is from a shoulder fired rifle.

CAS pretty much sum'd it up. Once in a while a deer will just tip over from a center chest shot but pretty unusual.....

I guess a BMG would be your minimum for elk?..........

Speaking of chest hit.I've hit a couple of moose in the heart.They jump up on their hinds run 20 feet and tip over.Anyone had that with deer?I'm usually a shoulder breaker but sometime you get lucky.
