[QUOTE="del2les, post: 3067526, member: 9299"] One of the best examples, other than handguns, to show the myth of "minimum energy" is the centuries old usage of BP muzzle loaders and their RB loads. Countless game animals have been taken with 36, 40, 44, 45, 50 caliber RB's that impact at rather short ranges with much less than 1,000ft/lbs. Many of these loads do not even have 1,000ft/lbs at the muzzle, and some of those have killed countless elk, buffalo, etc. [/QUOTE]
