quandary

I like 90 to 100% case fill. And 95 to 100% burn. Some cases and bullet that's not possible or realistic. 🎅

So true! On the flip side they are no more foolish than those who think it's all about bullet construction and ignore mass and...

Where can I puchase some of the magic bullets that kill with no energy?

"Energy" is not a thing it is a label for a measure of two characteristics (velocity and mass) of an object in motion. The more...

IWU i like that a lot 👍

Haha, let's say it's measured in terms of IWU (international wallop units)! Assuming it still holds for African game and Ibex, markhor, etc.

Seeing as it is my made up nomenclature I can define it as I like and I kinda like "killing energy". (Velocity + weight) x bullet...

At 600 yards that TSX will be under 2,000 fps and will have a very good chance of penciling through the lungs yielding little damage...

I never said it was. I said it was indicative of potential. This is where we disagree. It is useful because it provides a useful...

What is your 270LRX? a 129 gr LRX out of a 270 or a 270 gr LRX at of a 375 RUM?

I think what I wrote is fairly obvious. You are comparing terminal effect of one bullet at 500 yards versus another at 1,200 yards. That...

It depends. Whats the velocity, whats the distance, whats the design objectives of the bullet, what's the animal. Where are you trying...

Exactly my point. It's simply a measure of potential in this context. P.S. You can see a few posts above how I defined "killing...

I think when it comes to the killing power and animals; Elmer Keith may have stated it best. Cut, tear, sever, arteries, capillaries...

😂😂😂 As Goose said to Slider you crack me up. I guess we should ignore the fact that the 215 at those numbers will be impacting at 1,200...
