I would hate to state.. a .50 caliber is good for Xdistance. Killing wise, I know they can do it out to 100 yards, but that again boils down to shot placement. The .54 caliber I think has a little longer range to it then the .50. I would again stress only as far as you are able to place shots. For me that is 100 yards. For someone else, that might be further like 125 yards.
Yes, that sound resonable with open sights, cause the big blade or fibre optic covers the deer in most cases. Me too at 100, but for some it can be 125 yards with a fine peep, a solid rest and good eyes. Thank you.
