[QUOTE="Coyote_Hunter, post: 1720549, member: 110773"] I'm much more concerned about trajectory and retained energy and velocity than I am about whether two bullets are going the same speed. Take a .270 Win/150g ABLR @ 2900fps and a .30-06/150g AB (no 150g ABLR available) @ 3000fps. Zero both for MPBR for a 6" target at 7000 feet altitude (where we hunt) and there is no practical difference in drop out to 600. At 600, however, the .270 has about a 200fps, 200fpe and 6" advantage in drift. That and lower recoil are why Daughter #1 will be using a .270 Win for elk this year, with a 150g ABLR @ 2912fps.
