It'll certainly kill'em with authority, but expect an exit hole which will probably be on the large side, which is fine if you're not selling the fur.

Normally a smaller, flatter cartridge is recommended.

That is a fine caliber if you do not want to spend money on a gun that is made for game such as yotes ands groundhogs. I use a 270.
