The BRI slugs only carry about 950 ftlbs of energy at 100yds. They will be travelling at about 990 fps.
Conventional wisdom calls for 1000-1200 ftlbs for taking deer sized game.
So, yes....it will be adequate. However, with so many more powerful, (and flatter shooting)options, it would not be my first choiceina gun that I may be required to use at 100yds on live game.
JCC were I hunt, you're lucky if youever shootover 40 or 50yds. It depends were
and what part of the country you hunt at.
