Salavee, do understand bullet construction at all?
Are you farmiliar with terms like "minimum and maximum terminal performance"? Bullet manufacturers set out certain perameters on their products which will ensure their product is being used as designed. For instance, Hornady sets a proper terminal performance on their ELDX bullets at 1800fps to 3400fps which will ensure the bullet is performing to its full potential, this means any bullet traveling within these speeds will preform as intended by the manufacturer and perform in a manner which is designed to kill efficiently when the bullet hits the vitals.
I'm not a mathematician but I'd be willing to bet that a 130gr bullet with a mv of 2550fps will still have enough speed at 300-400 yards to still be above the 1800fps range and perform as designed.
What is the magic that a headstamp has that can make one bullet traveling at 2200fps kill better than another bullet traveling at 2200fps when the only difference is the headstamp on the case the bullet came out of?
