    I am intrigued to know what loads will be used for either cartridge that will deliver enough energy at 500 mtrs.
    A Pennsylvania Whitetail may need a minimum 1000 fp of energy from a 3030 and be inside 170 yards as prescribed by Townsend Whelan but a decent red is a whole different matter, 1500 foot pounds and 2200 feet per second at impact.
