[QUOTE="Len Backus, post: 423573, member: 1"] I don't know how fast an elk walks but let's assume it is about as fast as a brisk walk for a man -- say 6mph. I remember that 60 mph is 88 ft/sec so 6mph is about 8.8 ft/sec. Your bullet reaches there in 0.8 seconds. So the elk has moved 7 feet in that time. Or maybe 5 feet, or maybe 9 feet, or maybe 4 feet, or maybe ... ? And the kill zone is how wide? Is it 9 feet minus 4 feet wide? lightbulb [/QUOTE]
