[QUOTE="Darryl Cassel, post: 25599, member: 34"] With a 270 135 Gr Sierra MK at 3000 FPS muzzle velocity, you will have 1779 FPS and 949 Foot pounds of energy left at 700 yards. Plenty to kill a white tail deer and a bunch left over. It don't take much to kill a white tail deer. Bullet placement is key. When Longrange hunting began in the Pine Creek area of PA after WW2, the only rifles the fellows used were the 270 and 30/06 and they were making kills regularly at 700 and 800 yards. They didn't have a bullet as good as the 135 gr MK either. Jusy some food for thought. DC [/QUOTE]
