Ratshooter's figures are right in the same ballpark as mine, with 1602fps and 969ft/lbs of energy at 200yards.....thru my 20in bbl Glenfield 30-30...via Winchester 170gr Power Points.( BC = .241)
I would be interested in what others have found via their own rifles, ammo, and equipment. (IE a chrono)
Intentionally aiming with a gut shot in mind might explain why Float Pilot guides photographers now, and not hunters.
Maybe it might be wise for average shooters to decrease their maximum effective range IOT consistently place the shot in the vitals when it comes to hunting at least?
Thoughts?
Note: It is probably a good idea to keep this thread concentrated on hunting, and not defense. ( A moderator has already suggested this advice.)
