Not true. Not a one of them does.

All the manufacturer velocities are tied to specific bullets, which means a specific construction, mass (or range of masses), etc. Which means KE or at least a range of KE is known.

No one says "Irrespective of any other factors, velocity 'X' is enough to ensure a bullet will be effective."

Nobody knows what velocity 'X' is except you.

Please enlighten us.

No, I'm not a Ruger bigot - just an unabashed fan of their revolvers, M77's and #1's.

A good .30-06 is a 99% solution.
