Normally I would agree that accuracy over velocity

I would normally agree that variations in velocities don't matter as much, but when im deer hunting at 200-300 yards, starting out at 2000fps doesn't leave enough velocity or energy for the bullet to do its work. I hit a deer at 318 yards this year, it went down, got back up and disappeared, no blood anywhere, I think I know why. 2400 id be ok with in my 30, but it was 1996...and 2004... thanks for.the reply, I'll look into what you said and try a few things
