[QUOTE="CNY Yote Hunter, post: 2340217, member: 109650"] Just stating my own experiences is all, kind of impossible to tell anyone how much kinetic energy is being transferred if the projectile passes through isn’t it? Over penetration is an actual issue for the measurement of energy. If the projectile doesn’t pass through all of the energy is 100 percent being used…. Again though choice of projectile is everything. Ever see the video of Kasandra bull elk on you tube? Think it was a 688 yard shot on a trophy elk and it dropped with a 243. Ive also seen elk at that distance get hit with a 300 wsm that run off. Guess every situation is different but I’ve never had a deer not be a drt with a 6mm. Hopefully I didn’t just jinx myself lol!!
