[QUOTE="carl1775, post: 1739883, member: 105682"] It's not the round, it's the shot. A .177 pellet, can kill an elk. While I don't condone attempting to harvest that large of a bodied animal with a pellet rifle.... It comes down to confidence, proficiency and terminal performance. All three work together. The better you achieve one facet, the less efficient you need to be in the other two. That said, Just because you shoot a .50 BMG, doesn't make your shot an instant kill. I believe that individual State natural resource offices set pretty realistic limits on minimum weapon requirements. [/QUOTE]
