[QUOTE="IRISHMADMAN7RM, post: 1831501, member: 100295"] Let’s say we use the M80 for example. It’s max effective range is approximately 850-900 yards with around 400 ft lbs of energy at +- 2700 FPS. Now a .208 grain ELD running around 2400 FPS has approximately a 1250 - 1300 yard range with around 550 ft lbs of energy. That Elk cannot tell the difference between 2800 FPS or 3300 FPS. He is just thinking. WTC. ( what the crap ) It’s about control not speed. [/QUOTE]
