[QUOTE="Bigfishonafly, post: 1586557, member: 109033"] At 4000 feet you would need to start a 147 gr 6.5 at 2900 fps. to achieve 1000 ft lbs at 1000 yards. Just how long of a barrel you going to use to elk hunt? My creedmore will not come anywhere close to this velocity without fear of losing an eye. Lol maybe those born and raised in elk country have faster shooting rifles than those of us who were born and raised in elk country? ;) [/QUOTE]
