I'm from michigan, that's pretty far north and I would pass. I have limitations and they are 25 yards, 30 if the shot is perfect. The deer has to be broad side or slightly quarting away. I like the same thing with my gun, other than the distance, I will shoot out to 100 or so with my slug gun and 150 yards with my inline. Still has to be broadside or quarting away though.
