My 19 year old grandson shot & killed a woodchuck last summer at a confirmed 884 yards with my Savage 22-250. Terminal velocity was 1089 FPS. I don't know whether that is trans-sonic or sub-sonic, but in either case, the groundhog didn't care.
After reading about the British sniper and the crazy things that happen to a pointed bullet when it goes into the trans-sonic region, I wonder if the 55 Nosler BT hit the woodchuck point first. Again, he didn't care.
