My 14 year old daughter wants to go deer hunting. I have a Knight Disc Extreme that shoots BH 209 (I understand some don't) and some 200 gr and 300 grain saboted bullets. Anyone have an idea of how low I can go on the powder charge and still be effective out to 30 - 40 yards?
We used to use 1 pellet for our kids which was 50 grains of Pyrodex. Worked fine for them if we kept our shots under 50 yards. They were still going faster than the average handgun bullet. I'd say try 50-60 grains of BH209 and see how it shoots.
