[QUOTE="remingtonman_25_06, post: 1875920, member: 1403"] Wherever the bullet goes below 1600fps in my opinion. So around 1400-1500 yards with that combo. Longest bull I killed was 1125 yards with a 7RM and 162 AMAX at 2950fps. Bullet entered behind shoulder, destroyed lungs, and exited. He went 20-25 yards and fell over dead with all 4 feet straight up in the air. Elk have a 24" vital radius, a lot easier to poke an elk at 1000+ then a deer where your vital size is cut in half...You also only need 1000ft lbs of energy or so to kill elk reliably... [/QUOTE]
