No sh** Sherlock. That's why I said "it depends on the bullet."

Are you really that dense?



Ahhh, so it depends on energy. Got it.



Velocity, Sherlock. If it depended on energy, there'd be a different velocity for each different weight of the same bullet.

Should I draw a picture?

You really are that dense. Thanks for removing any doubt.


So, same velocities for two bullets. You expect a .22 caliber 60g Partition at 1800fps to be just as capable of destruction as a .458 caliber 500g Partition at the same velocity?

After all, Nosler says they both have the same "Optimum Performance Velocity" of 1800fps minimum to unlimited fps.

The 60g Partition would have 432 ft-lbs energy with which to do work. The 500g Partition would have 3590 ft-lbs.

And you cal me dense...

You're such a tool...

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.
