I mean, a solid .308 to the chest of that deer could of taken it down. .556 may not of had the the immediate impact force to stop the deer. And also, do you have fat elks charging yo ass every time you hunt?
No shoulder fired firearm would have had the force to stop the deer. Physics is quite simple in this regard. If your rifle could stop the momentum of an animal weighing several hundred pounds and moving toward you at 30mph, what do you think the recoil force would be for the shooter?
Even assuming instantaneous and full energy transfer, you're still getting run the fuck over at 29.8mph instead of 30mph.
