For the third shot I took him in the head. Even my son only hunted with his .243 one year as he had the same kind of experience.

PS: I have never crippled or lost a deer in 44 years of gun hunting.
Oh and did I mention that I really, really like my .308.

Yep seen a buck shot square in the front shoulder wit a 243 and deer just ran away never to be seen again....Now if that was 30-06 it would of blown off both front shoulders and the deer would be trying to run with just 2 feet!!!!
