[QUOTE="Bravo 4, post: 1691376, member: 8873"] Ft lbs of energy is calculated using velocity so I guess both come in to play somewhere in the equation...? If there is no transfer of said energy (as in bullet performance) then it is a moot point. IDK, I really don’t worry about energy because I usually use a large and heavy enough bullet/caliber that it keeps enough so called energy as long as the bullet is going fast enough to perform as designed. My .375 starts out currently at well over 8,000 ft lbs, and still has more energy at the minimum velocity I think my bullet will perform than most common hunting cartridges do at the muzzle.:D [/QUOTE]
