Very much so. Beauty about the Whelen from what my experience has been is that it shoots and takes game very effectively from mice to moose with soft loaded factory ammunition. Prudent loading only makes things easier to hit. I’ve ran green box Remington 200 grain core lokt that were darn accurate and will put the smack down on game. I’ve loaded it up and down with RL15, CFE223 and AA2000MR. Top to bottom it’s accurate. Even the worst groups were huntable loads. A 250 grain plodding along at 2400 FPS or less can easily take big game out as far as I need to shoot.
