[QUOTE="General RE LEE, post: 3074831, member: 115273"] When looking at the ballistic table for my preferred 6 ARC load (Howa Mini bolt action), 1000 + lbs of KE goes out to 375 yards. My load is the 103 grain ELDX and it’s 1800 FPS + out to 600 yards. For whitetail deer, would you base your max terminal distance on the minimum 1000 lbs KE or 1800 FPS thresholds? Depending on which one, I have either an ethical 375 yard deer rifle or 600 yard deer rifle. FWIW, I have no plans shooting a deer at 600 yards. [/QUOTE]
