Thread: Interesting stats here....so the 270 can kill deer...

And I think that’s one of the main two points eh Carlsen, what you shoot them with rifle wise isn’t that important.

What a study like this can never capture I suppose is the manner in which the deer was shot, seeing as how these were all shot out of a stand. For the typical kiwi shooting, off hand, kneeling, off sticks, prone on a bipod... I know my placement snap shooting off hand in the woods at a close-ish range deer that knows I’m there is nowhere near as flash as me shooting them prone from five or seven times further away.
