Mine hasn't taken any game yet because I'm new to it but it did go bear hunting and all I ran into are sow/cub combos. No dice there but I'm hopeful. Still I've practiced a good deal with it and attached a rifle sling on it. I know for certain a large Samsung phone is in danger of being a casuality at 400yds and I've taken it to 500. After that it runs lower on mass and energy than I like but I appr3ciate it's mild nature and recoil. Just enough to feel like a serious rifle but not at all punishing.
