Now Im NOT saying you'd do it but I like at least 900ft lbs of energy to do the job. Im not sure even if you's get that much that even the ft lbs could help you.
At 200yds I have watched the bullet in flight to the target, just imagine what would happen at 300 if the deer took just one step, your good shot just turned into a bad one. A MLer is just that a MLer, it's not a rifle. Im sure if I hit it just right I could take a deer with my Bow at 300yds, but would I try it, no.
I've taken shots at 150-175yds and worried that something could go wrong. It might look good on paper or in the data reports, but in real life it's totally different, they dont show the what if's or could happens.
If a deer is at 300yds it's because you could'nt get any closer, I would never brag that I shot a deer at 300yds, my buddys would look at me like Im NUT's and why the heck would I even try a stupid thing like that.
Anythings possible but the other possibilities are endless.
