[QUOTE="MontanaRifleman, post: 491809, member: 11717"] A bullet's KE really doesn't have anything to do with stability. And once the bullet leaves the muzzle, the slower it gets as it goes down range, the more stable it becomes. The reason is that the bullet's rate of spin remains constant as it slows down. It would actually have a better chance of penetrating in a straight path @ 1000 yds vs 500. [/QUOTE]
