[QUOTE="MontanaRifleman, post: 338275, member: 11717"] RC, that's a tough question to answer and basically depends on where you draw the line on a bullet's terminal performance vs the game you are shooting. I use the minimal expansion velocity of the bullet as a limiting factor. With the SMK, there is no such published velocity. From some reports I've read on this site, it seems the 300 SMK will expand below 1800 fps. So the bottom line would be to run the numbers in a balistic calc to get *your* effective range.
