Not even close,wind drift is horrible out at two hundred yards. The problem with the 45 SML shooters is they only have two bullets. 195 Barnes and 200grn SST, which ones worse? Both the bullets are horrible and i have shot many Deer with both to say that. The 45's need a good high BC bullet like 240grn or larger. Cecils 260grn DC is great at 2000fps. But 2500 or faster forget it.
