[QUOTE="Mysticplayer, post: 11670, member: 8947"] For mule deer, consistent hits on a milk jug size target with an impact vel of at least 1750fps. This gives me excellent penetration and expansion for lots of internal damage. The size of the target is about the size of kill zone for the avg mule deer in my area. Larger animal, longer range as long as impact vel is correct. This refers to 'small cal'. With something like a 300gr 338 MK, impact vel can go lower because you have so much weight at impact. MK seem to do well on game at vel above the speed of sound. Jerry [/QUOTE]
