[QUOTE="Buano, post: 514440, member: 21641"] I've shot deer at nearly 200 yards with a TC Hawken. I believe my current TC Rifle, although rated for 250 yards, could do 400 with a little practice. The Kentucky Rifle I first shot black powder with was easy to 160 yards — that's the longest range I had to practice with it. I'm sure that would have dropped deer at 250 yards. With a smoke pole velocities are slower so drop is more pronounced. It simply takes longer to get proficient at long range — but most are quite capable of killing a deer at extended ranges. [/QUOTE]
