[QUOTE="Kansaswoodguy, post: 1266938, member: 83267"] Poachers use the 22lr to take countless deer it has less than 200ftlbs at the muzzle. I think shot placement is way more important than ftlbs. I don't think the 1000ftlb suggestion is a bad one it may keep relatively inexperienced hunters from taking unethical shots beyond their ability. Most handgun hunters however would laugh at the 1000ftlb's as some handgun rounds used for hunting struggle to get that at the muzzle and even some muzzle loaders would be hard pressed to pull it off. I don't think that 22lr in ethical by any means but I also don't feel 1000ftlbs is set in stone perhaps 500ftlb is a more practical benchmark. [/QUOTE]
