[QUOTE="jpeaston, post: 523173, member: 22493"] I have a lot of experience with that particular bullet, and wouldn't advise anybody to shoot light skinned animals at anything less than 2500 fps for expansion reasons, regardless of energy. The newer ttsx may be different. I had a 25-06 that could hit coyotes as far as I could range them, and below 2500 fps they would literally run for miles after hitting them square. At long range I would try to pin the shoulders instead of the "pocket" shot. [/QUOTE]
