Alright folks, seeing as how this is the first day of ML season, and considering modern gun season starts Saturday, let’s once again talk shot placement. Tell the following: 1. What firearm/caliber you’ll be shooting, 2. What spot on the deer you plan to shoot. ![[Linked Image]](https://i.imgur.com/ff39fQG.png)
Jesus... I hope you know Him personally like I do.

280 Remington, 160gr Accubonds over a stout load of R-23 at 2900fps, or a 7x57 with 139 Hornady SPs over a moderate load of H4350 at 2850fps, and with either I ATTEMPT to shoot at N or O, but seem to have a habit of hitting high lately and clipping the spine, which is not all bad.

I'll be toting a 280 AI on opening day and plan to hit in the N O area.

Any caliber gets an N, so when I miss by 4 inches, it still hits a good spot to put it down quick

The shot as pictured is a O with a .308 and 130grain Barnes TTSX. O is the high percentage shot , most room for error.
