[QUOTE="Lefty7mmstw, post: 689220, member: 48043"] Mule deer will do 35 mph full out. Whitetail deer do about 30mph , and antelope will do 60 mph full out. Plus a 1/2 second travel time is actually rather short for the type shooting we are speaking of. a .550 bc bullet at 3000 fps will be at .5 second time of flite at about 550 yards. Hitting a pronghorn antelope full out at 1/4 mile in a 30 mph wind is a chore, even with a 7mm ultra when it's a hard left swing and you are a lefty. Good steaks though. [/QUOTE]
