[QUOTE="Darryl Cassel, post: 5786, member: 34"] S1 I agree with the .500 and .522 BC with 900 Foot Pounds of energy. That's plenty to kill deer at 1000 yards. I do remember saying I like a minimum of 900 to 1000 Foot pounds of energy. Yes, those two bullets you mentioned will get it done but, with the listed BC of only .370 in the 120gr Sierra BTHP and below, I feel the BC and remaining energy is a bit low for the 1000 yard clean kills and I stand by that comment. The 120 Gr Sierra BTHP bullet is terrible and one would have to shoot it to see just how terrible it is. Drops like a ton of bricks. I do realize that, there are better bullets for the 25. Good shooting to all. Later DC [img]images/icons/wink.gif[/img] [ 05-22-2003: Message edited by: Darryl Cassel ] [/QUOTE]
