[QUOTE="06mauser, post: 1561915, member: 11244"] Just some number to digest since I am sitting in front of my calculator and this thread is pretty interesting. I don't have a dog in the fight and agree with much of which has been said by all sides, ie Shot placement is key and being comfortable with what you have is also very important. F=1/2(mass X velocity^2) Using info from nosler for their long range ammo 26 Nosler - 142 ABLR, Range 500, Velocity=2633 fps: Energy=2185.5 ft/lbs 7mm Mag - 168 ABLR, Range 500, Velocity=2206 fps: Energy=1815.0 ft/lbs 300 WM - 190 ABLR, Range 500, Velocity=2186 fps: Energy=2015.0 ft/lbs Someone suggested to use the .264 cal 147 grain bullet ELD and 30 cal 215 VLD 147 grain bullet at 3350: Energy=3662 ft/lbs 215 grain bullet at 3050: Energy=4440 ft/lbs These must be muzzle velocities, I don't have the down range velocity to check the energy.
