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...

Sorry I meant TSX. Bullet referenced earlier in this thread. 270 grain. Cartridge pushing it is irrelevant. Started at 3000 fps. 5000...

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

I agree, they are not comparable even though the energy number is the same. That was my point; KE value is not indicative of terminal...

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...

600 yards, 270 LRX started at 3k vs 108 eldm started at 3125. The objective is to kill the animal cleanly. Shooting lungs. Broadside...

The point that a lot of us are trying to make is that with all that information you need to answer the question, we don't need to know...

I see this mentioned quite regularly, and each and every time……I am left bewildered! This is for a hunting rifle…….not...

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...

I think the message of the "energy is a useless metric" crowd is, the energy number doesn't really correlate with wound channel...

No, I'm not, so stop saying I am, and I don't care what other posters are saying about energy, they're wrong. I'm simply saying there's...

I prefer full to slightly compressed! I’m not terribly opposed to somewhat heavily compressed! memtb

It was a first for me too.
