[QUOTE="Trickymissfit, post: 815606, member: 25383"] most folks like to think of 1000 ft. lb. of energy for a quick clean kill on a deer sized animal. The 6x45 would have similar power at 400 yards as the 115 grain 30 cailber bullet would at 250 yards, and both are really not deer sized rounds at anything much past 150 yards. Yet a generic 250 Savage with the 100 grain bullet (not the improved round) would have about 750 ft.lb. of energy at 400 yards and the improved version would be about 950 ft.lb. of energy at the same distance with the same bullet. That's close to a 100% improvment. gary [/QUOTE]
