[QUOTE="fiftybmg, post: 1903405, member: 96316"] Never. It's not about energy alone. It's always velocity, bullet construction, range and type of game. That is ridiculous. In Roy Weatherby's time there was a theory that velocity alone was sufficient to kill, based on this "shock", termed "hydrostatic shock". That theory is out of fashion now, and was never proven.
