AEA Megalodon. 510

Megalodon long barrel at 30 yards that will it kill? I think it will dispatch a deer humanly

 

[Sawney Bean]

I would be confident in a .51 doing the job at 30 yards.

 

[RobM123]

yea, no problem

 

[pcponly]

From a stand or blind 75 yards or less 100% lethal

 

[DonEnzone]

It delivers around 350-400 footpounds of energy. So... unless the deer is wearing body armour, I'd say it will suffice

Texoma slugs 210 gr... .510 caliber 22 inch barrel i was expecting speeds in the 940 fps and up little disappointed

 

[pcponly]

These were 235 gr texoma slugs

Interesting. Challenger .510 at 4300 PSI produced 957 FPS with 300 gr slug, which is 610 FPE. What pressure did you have?

That was starting at 4500 psi the .510 megalodon with the 235 gr was advertised for 950 fps for around 475 fpe but I'm not getting there.
