i have a .204 ruger, i shoot a 32 grain hornady v-max bullet. i havent killed anything with it yet because i just got it but the guy at the gun shop told me that it could kill a deer from 75 yards if you shoot it in the heart or lungs. ive shot through 3 inches of plywood from 50 yards with it if that helps any.its a great little gun, it will kill a varmint from about 600 yards.
