What is better at killing game light loads at hyper fast speed or heavier loads at slow speeds?

Answer 1

i believe this depends on the type of game you are hunting. for fast moving birds i would use faster loads for slower moving game such as turkeys heavy loads are the key due to better knock down power. this is just my opinion though That depends entirely on what the game is. If it is a heavy animal like a deer or larger then you need the penetration that only a heavy bullet will provide. A light, fast bullet will disintegrate near the surface and not penetrate to the vitals. If you are shooting a small varmit like a prarie dog, a fast, light bullet is adequate since you usually need to shoot from a considerable distance and need a flat shooting bullet, but you don't need any signifant penetraation to kill the animal.
