[QUOTE="svnmag, post: 151826, member: 330"] Steel is garbage. I'm not sure if we're in agreement on not. I'm by no means a math guy. Am confident 15 hundredths of a lb won't be noticed by a bird, squirrel or rabbit. My point is like density spheres impact essentially the same at 40yds (+) no matter the launch velocity. You can confidently reduce discomfort by reducing the horsepower in the bbl. The below is [I]quality [/I]lead. I'll try to make a chart: Here's 7 1/2: At 1330 fps Muzzle 20yds 40yds 930 715 1200 fps 865 675 Energy: 1300fps Muzzle 20yds 40yds 4.91 2.40 1.42 1200fps 4.00 2.08 1.26 Again; velocities and energy are for the [I]same [/I]size sphere with [I]same[/I] density. Hevi will exceed lead. Here's a comparison of 7 1/2 with 6 at 1200fps (hunt with hard, chilled shot): Energy muzzle 20 40 7 1/2 4.00 3.05 1.26 6 6.20 3.49 2.23 One does not need to get the shi'ite kicked out of a muslim enthusiast to kill game with a shotgun. More on the shoulder doesn't mean more dead. [/QUOTE]
