Thanks for the advice.

 

I sometimes go for a head or a neck shot if it is a dead cert, Just to preserve the rest of the carcass, the 270 can be a bit messy.

 

I have never taken a jaw out before but yesterday just proves that it could go horribly wrong. [experiance gained]

 

Where are your preferred targets [broad side]

 

I will be having ago at papper before I go any where near a wood

Head and neck shots for me are only ever taken if necessary and only if rested on a solid object. You should make yourself familiar with the anatomy of a deer so that heart/lung shots can be taken at a varying degree of angles, and even when the deer is head on.

Just make sure your rifle is properly zeroed bvefore shooting at deer again

BTT - You`re having a laugh aren`t you.............

How do you know you didn`t hit a non vital area,jaw/nose/larynx/nape?:lol:?

I think you need to get on a range and don`t stray from there until you can do the necessary for the animal you intend to kill.

PS a 270 at that range will hardly damamge the carcase anyway.

As for"I have never taken a jaw out before but yesterday "I will leave you to answer that.
