More velocity doesn't make as much difference as many people believe.

Bullets have two conflicting forces acting upon them after leaving the muzzle: the spin, which stabilizes them, and air pressure on the front of the bullet, which destabilizes them. More velocity increases the stabilizing effect of spin, but the extra air pressure tends to counteract it.
