[QUOTE="rooster740, post: 262403, member: 10582"] Just some food for thought, how much energy does and average arrow have at 40 yards? My opinion favors shot placement more then bullet energy, within reason. Most elk properly shot at long distance never know they have been shot by a human. Some do the coyote dash, but most do not cover much distance giving them time to expire. A big fast bullet that fragments or looses half it's mass, does not kill like a bullet that puts two large holes in the chest cavity. No respiration no brain function. The next issue for a later discussion is getting copper bullets to shoot as well as SMK or Accubonds. [/QUOTE]
