I have hunted big game all my life and shot almost everything with a 25-35. My first was a Mule Deer doe. I went on to bigger things and shot a 7 foot grizzly with it. Later I have hunted most of Montana at one time or another, killing quite a few animals with the 25-35 that people don’t think is big enough for big game…

Grizzly skull, once between the eyes and it didn’t bounce off…

You have done a lot with the 25-35. Did the the bullet exit the Grizzley skull?

It did completely penetrate the skull. You can see the bullet hole through the bottom of the skull…

Just goes to show a good shot beats a bad shot traveling 1000fps faster.
