[QUOTE="JASmith, post: 1865343, member: 24844"] There is a fair bit of evidence suggesting that the primary driver of effectiveness given a hit in the vital zone is bullet weight. The velocity part is simply that the bullet must hit within the window of reliable expansion. This is independent of caliber. In other words, a 130 gr 6.5 bullet will be as effective as a 130 gr .30 caliber bullet of the same design class and both hit within the velocity window.
