A Gun shoot is probally not as much trama to the meat as a full size truck.

Believe it or not the kinect energy is probably pretty close to the same, granted its not as blunt over as large of an area but a 338 packs about 5000ftlbs when pumped up

Ive shot em between the shoulders with them facing me and the bullet comes out the other end, theres not much left of their insides, its also real fun cleaning them with all the "goo" in the chest cavity

Sorry guys Shoulda been more clear, insurance company valued the truck at 9,500 so they paid me the money less my 100 dollar deductible and she's getting fixed now..... and the deer was almost in pieces, there was no saving it Haha, drivers door needs a skin because it broke it's antlers off in it

The mental image of you trying to roll a dead cow into the bed of a beat-up silverado on the side of some two lane highway in BFE made me chuckle lol. What do you do with the squirrels and possums?

Not trying to put you or any Guns abilty down just that there usually focused on a specific Kill Zone area Like the head or Heart area. Thats not usually in areas like the Blader were the toxins are. A car or truck is just like a battering ram as if the initial force form the primary Impact the seconadry Impact of hitting the ground does damage too. in some cases not only does the animal get hit but it also gets run over. Any way I am not a hunter but I was always taught to get rid of the end trails as soon as possible eliminate contamination from these areas.


On a side not I sure would like the operttunity To try a barret at long range Targets. Not for hunting animals cause there probally would not be much left with a 50 Cal. LOL I think were way of topic now...

Ouch!!! I thought it just wrinkled the door up from the fender being pushed back and opening the door. Glad to hear she's getting fixed back up.

When you said you paid 6200 and the damage was around 64000 I was affraid they were gonna total it.
