All true.
I used to blow bullets up with the .460 that were designed for the .45/70.
The 400gn Speer with the paper thin jacket would often disappear in a puf of blue smoke before reaching to 100 yard target when driven at 2900fps.

That must be your varminting load, huh? Getting her tuned up for the PD shoot?
I can't speak to dinky bullets for deer that are the size and weight of a Yugo. I can't speak to that Speer 400 grain at 2900, other than OUCH! I have seen enough of the twist-rate and rotational velocity phenomenon that I've come to accept that it has an evidentiary basis in fact, and is part of the bullet performance "equation". And I've seen the aftermath of a grinder wheel that gave way. Like a bomb went off.
