You probably haven't read P. O. Ackley's accounts of hunting with the .220 Swift. What a fast, light bullet can do has long been documented and authenticated.

Now, terminal performance of bullets becomes more important, IMO, as velocity is increased. I think that's the discussion on the table, more than head stamp...
