[QUOTE="Greg Duerr, post: 960794, member: 32685"] I read something that said that a bullet needs so much velocity and energy when it gets to the intended target to make a clean kill...................... Im thinking that for Deer the bullet should be traveling at 1500fps with an energy level of 1000 foot lbs......................is this correct?? The reason I ask is that I was told that a .243 AI shooting a 105 berger at 3200 is only effective out to 400 yds.................but when doing a ballistic calculation that combination has a lot more at 400 yards than is needed................ So whats the real answer? [/QUOTE]
