[QUOTE="General RE LEE, post: 2750885, member: 115273"] I see very little discussion about momentum vs KE at impact. You can have a tennis ball and a baseball hit a person in the butt with the same KE. 10/10 the person is going to request to be hit with the tennis ball. The baseball has more mass and momentum. A 6.5 Creedmoor and 308 might have similar KE at 500 yards, but the 178 grain ELD-X is going to have more momentum than the 143 grain ELD-X. [/QUOTE]
