I have mentioned this before but I think it bears repeating .
For all the new hunters , shooters and those entering the field of hand loading ,we must remember something .
With all the threads about 6.5 and .762 bullets lately and numbers getting inserted in the posts concerning sectional density , Ballistic coefficient momentum , etc one must remember that these numbers and terms concern the bullet not the cartridge .
It matters not what cartridge the bullet came out of, it matters more about the construction of the bullet itself .
A person can have two completely differently constructed bullets of the same caliber coming out of a cartridge at the same velocity with totally different results down range , for example .
A person can fall down a very deep rabbit hole and get totally tangled up in minutae that mean very little in the big scheme of things when it comes to external ballistics and shooting and especially hunting !
