My brother has a friend that knows this guy in fla. and he uses it to poach deer as its quiet and one shot in the head its down due to there accuracy. He said he would find shell fragments in its hind leg where it hits the animal with so much force and it would travel from its head down to its hind leg.
I thinkyou would really be limiting youself as to what species your going to hunt. It will kill deer but are you ever planning on coming out west? You may want to leave it at home than, if your strictly hunting small deer it will work I'm sure. Good luck, Bobby
