[QUOTE="dogbuster0006, post: 791411, member: 39547"] I'm guessing you're asking at what range the energy level drops off to not be an efficient killer. I just pulled up the chart for Hornandy Superformance with a 50gr v-max, at 500yds they claim 445ftlb of energy. I'll probably be argued with here and mis-quoted and whatever else but. If I were shooting that load from a capable rifle with good glass in the right weather, ie wind wasn't blowing much I wouldn't have an issue sending one towards a coyote at that range. You can find all sorts of discussions and ballistic tests and what ever else to both support my theory and argue against it. I'm confident enough in myself to accurately make that shot, I've been shooting since I was a little fella too. If you've shot to that range with that load and are certain you can make that shot and quickly dispatch that animal rock on. Good luck happy hunting [/QUOTE]
