break him down first and then kill him. If you can break that front shoulder first hopefully some of the bone splinters will either go into the lungs or possibly even the heart although the point of shoulder is a bit high for a heart shot. But they can't run as fast on 3 legs. John told me he wants the first shot a solid and the fast second shot (as fast as I can be with a single shot) a soft point. I wanted to try one with my 410 GNR but John said they were too wild and mean to take a chance, so the 450 GNR comes into play with the 500 grain solid. The second shot the 350 grain soft point. All this is conjecture as I might not even be able to get up on one if they are as wild as he says. We will see.
