Because you would like to wake up everyone back at camp when the trigger gets pulled on one of the larger caliber guns. I did earlier this year and before my ears quit ringing I was getting txt msgs telling me they were still in bed and weren't going to help skin it.
Thats pretty funny... 
I loaned my cousin my 25-06, and i grabed my 300(still don't know why) anyway was getting out of my double bull when I looked up and 25 yards was a big skunk getting possed to let one loose on me..... I should of let him my ears rang for a day.

I shoot a 270 and recently changed from the 150gr to 130gr. Every deer I shot with the 150gr bullets would run. There was a small entrance and small exit, little or no blood, and they would run at least 50yrds. So, I changed to the 130gr as a test last year, and I think I had to walk 5 feet from for one of the deer I shot this past weekend. Which is the farthest yet since the change. I think the 150gr is to heavy and stayed together to well. 130gr blows a nasty exit hole and no more tracking.

My buddy lunged a doe at 40 yards, she ran another 100 yards for sure. I asked why didn't you head or neck shoot her and he said cause he didn't think of that. It wouldn't have moved an inch. On a doe Head shots rock, on a buck shoot the neck, it's just way cleaner when guttin a deer. Lings an heart shot and just plain messy. This year all 3 of my deer were neck shots, and i'll just keep shooting them like that, very easy cleaning.
