The .22-250 thread has me wondering the same about .223 shooting 62 gr Fusions. Shots will be less than 100 yards.
My original notion was for my son to take a high shoulder shot, which should damage at least 1 shoulder, lungs and cause shock to the central nervous system and possibly trauma to the aorta. But it’s gotta punch through the on-side shoulder blade to do this. Assuming it does, should be effective.
Of should I have him aim right behind the shoulder for straight lungs, top area of the heart?
I’m not expecting and exit wound and blood trail on either spot, but the high shoulder seems like better odds of dropping it quickly.
FTR- no neck shots, I’m afraid the risk of just tissue damage and not hitting the spine or artery.
