[QUOTE="su37, post: 511937, member: 5541"] In regards to hitting elk with Berger bullets. The bullet is going to behave the same wither the animal is hit at 650 yards or 950 yards. It will penetrate 2 to 3 inches then grenade. So called Energy means nothing. A 140 just has more metal to tear up some more flesh and vitals over a 130 grain. Impact velocity to open up the bullet is everything. If it hits an animal at around 1,600 fps you're good. That's the impact speed I want. [/QUOTE]
