We know that "foot/pounds" doesn't kill. It's an interesting measure, but look at how many foot/pounds old BP gun/cartridges, and pistoleros use to get the job done.

Perhaps I should have been more clear. I did not say it was only capable of 100 yards. I just commented I have never had to shoot anything over 90 yards. That includes elk and deer with a 270WSM. I stand by my advice to take it and go hunt a cut line with it.
