[QUOTE="Punisher, post: 3068242, member: 76832"] “Enough” energy is a function of placement. 250 ft lbs to the head is terminal, but to the shoulder is inadequate. there is no rule for number of fr lbs required in most states. Many shooters here are capable shooting long distances with reasonable guarantee they will make terminal impact. Debate on this subject is purely academic, but for purposes of continuing positive conversations, I would say that the threshold of ft lbs required to terminate game is limited entirely by the placement of the bullet, which is often limited by the ability of the shooter. My 10 year old son took his first deer at 930 yards. So, with the right training and equipment, it can be done by anyone. I know it’s kind of an answer that contains no answer, but I hope this helps.
