[QUOTE="entoptics, post: 2833135, member: 104268"] I ran some somewhat conservative numbers in JBM Ballistics, in case you can't squeeze near maximum speed (e.g. short barrel, limited powder selection, etc), and are hunting at lower altitudes/temperatures... 3050 fps muzzle velocity 25° F 5000' elevation 350 yard stats = 2300 fps impact velocity 1400 ftlbs of energy. Not exactly overkill, but I'd think it would be sufficient if placed in the boiler. [/QUOTE]
