Gentlemen, we're figuring energy for handgun and rifle bullets, not the Space Shuttle!

As the Good Colonel aptly put it, a few final inch*pounds at this level are unnecessary. It's getting taken way above most pay-grades on here.

All I was trying to do was to put a simple yet fairly accurate formula in front of the guys. Nobody on this forum is going to be taking one-mile .416Barrett shots on Terrorists.

You guys are making my head spin and I have a math background myself, though evidently not as heavy as some of you. LOL!
