My kids were watching when I took the shot and marveled that I almost made that deer fly( they were daily young at the time) so while I do agree with you in principle and also realise Hollywood goes way over board my personal experience has shown bullet Impact can and sometimes does go against what the math says it should

Reflex reaction.
