[QUOTE="tbrice23, post: 1210164, member: 59502"] You should be able to hit this vital zone EVERY time from any distance from a FIELD/HUNTING position (not from a bench rest unless you are going to be hunting from a bench rest) in any wind condition for a clean ethical kill. Or you shouldn't make the shot. Ever. To figure out how much terminal energy is sufficient to make an ethical kill you need to know your Chronographed velocity and enter the info into a ballistics program (JBM) . Some feel 1100 to 1200 f/lb of energy is sufficient. Others say 1000 ft/lb. [/QUOTE]
