[QUOTE="Tumbleweed, post: 955499, member: 9281"] Ok, I know there are tons of opinions out there and plenty of real world experience with various bullets at long range. I have gotten comfortable with a number that I feel is adequate in regards to minimum kinetic energy on elk sized game. However, I am curious as to your real world experiences and what you feel is a minimum or 'enough' energy for a clean kill to see if I need to adjust that number. I know there are all kinds of variables such as bullet caliber, style, frontal area, and shot placement on the animal probably being the most critical. Fire away! [/QUOTE]
