   Energy is no measurement of the terminal performance of a bullet. You might as well measure how much smoke comes out of the barrel. Or how loud the shot is. These things are all measureable, but are...

   Most bullets will bounce off a deer at 999 foot pounds and will actually ricochet

    Oropi liked post by Hermitage On thread : .270 is the best caliber ever made.

    But it's 99 years old! Everyone knows old cartridges are no good. Look at the 6.5x55, 7x57, 3006, 303, 8x57, 375 H&H plus a heap more. Absolute rubbish .
