[QUOTE="vancewalker007, post: 2291411, member: 66917"] It won't matter if you can't hit anything. And, you don't need 2000ft lbs to kill an elk at 1000 yards. You'll likely never get into a 1000 yard shot unless you purposely try to do it anyway. You can kill an elk with a 7mm Rem mag at 1000 yards. Proper velocity for good bullet function is more important then ft lbs anyway. Listen to some LR Podcasts from Gunwerks and you'll get an education. They have killed 1000s of head of game at long range, they got em a little experience doing it :). As a hunter you're way better off with a rifle that you shoot accurately and consistently. I'm sure other said this, I just don't want to flip through 16 pages of replies. [/QUOTE]
