[QUOTE="Gryphon, post: 1580420, member: 109262"] All the published stats are based on a 90 grain bullet and 24" test barrel to stay supersonic to 1300 yards. This cartridge is great for target and tactical shooting but honestly its some where between a 223 and 243 energy so it really has limited hunting application as its overkill on small varmints (and a barrel burner) and while it should kill Whitetail Deer, the 243 is still considered by many the minimum for deer.
