I have a 300 RUM that shoots 200gr AB (b.c. .588) at around 3100fps and was wondering if anyone could tell me what the max effective range would be for elk & deer? I have heard that 1500ftlbs of energy is min for elk and around 1000ft lbs for deer but am not sure. I don't have any bal softwhere to tell me what my energy is at long ranges. Does anyone have any experience whith the 300 RUM on elk at extended ranges? I shot mine this year at 510yrds and went through the sholder at an angle and exited just before the hind qourter. No problems there!!! I am just not sure what it can do at 1000yrds or mabye 1200yrds? Any information would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks, Tom
