bullet placement V's cartridge
      06/03/04 10:30 AM

Something I've been thinking about lately after reading the hunting news section in the ADA Australian Deer mag. Jan./Feb. issue, page 61 if anyone has it. this is about a Sambar stag taken in Victoria where a hunter took a stag on the run with 2 shots from a 35 whelen.
I'll just quote from the article.

"The stag was missing a brow tine and when dressing out the carcase Matt found not one but two superbly placed and mushroomed .30 cal. bullets lodged in the shoulder area and the wounds completely healed over.
The stag showed no indication of any disability when it was put up" end of quote.

Any thoughts anyone on the cartridge used, I take it, it was low vel. soft bullet used but I've been racking my brain trying to come up with it, no mention if bone was hit....Les
