I'm loading these at a mild 3180 fps for my daughter and I've been very impressed with 6 kills between us so far. Recoil is very, very low. I would expect if you pushed them to 3300-3400 (easily doable with a 24" barrel), it would be even better.
Shooting to break bone or in the lungs??
The last time that bear ate a lawyer he had the runs for 33 days!
