If the animal dies does it really matter which bullet does the deed???

I’m glad Stinky shot a moose this fall with his Grendel and filled his freezer, he proved the little 6.5 is a capable moose cartridge and proved a few guys don’t know as much as they figured about hunting.

They can say all they want now, dead moose don’t lie!
