Quote: .45 Long Colt 22" barrel (rifle) 300 gr, 22 grs powder, 1550 fps Bullet Weight: 300 (gr) Bullet Velocity: 1550 (fps) Powder Charge Weight: 22 (gr) Firearm Weight: 7.2 (lbs) Recoil Impulse 2.55 (lbs.sec) Recoil Velocity 11.41 (fps) Recoil Energy 14.56 (ft.lbf) Mass: 300 (gr) Velocity: 1550 (fps) Energy: 1601 (ft.lbf) 2170 (joules) .577 Bland-Pryse Revolver Stopper Pushing approximately a 400 grain bullet at about 725 fps, these 5-shot revolvers were made as last-ditch “stopping” guns in case of attack by large animals, and most of them were taken to India during the Victorian period. https://www.forgottenweapons.com/577-caliber-bland-pryse-stopping-revolver/ Bullet Weight: 400 (gr) Bullet Velocity: 725 (fps) Powder Charge Weight: 15 (gr) Firearm Weight: 7.2 (lbs) Recoil Impulse 1.62 (lbs.sec) Recoil Velocity 7.24 (fps) Recoil Energy 5.87 (ft.lbf) Mass: 400 (gr) Velocity: 725 (fps) Energy: 467 (ft.lbf) 633 (joules) .45-70 Ballistics Typical 45-70 ballistics with modern factory ammo are a 300gr bullet at 2,350fps (3,678 ft-lbs), a 325gr bullet at 2,050fps (3,032 ft-lbs), and a 405gr bullet at 1,330fps (1,591 ft-lbs). The .45-70 Govt is very effective out to around 150 yards with minimal bullet drop, but it’s capable of great accuracy and longer range shooting as well. One .45-70 load approximates the performance of the original .45-70 Govt black powder loading of a 405 grain bullet (.307 BC) at 1350 feet per second while the other is a 325gr Hornady LEVERevolution factory load (.230 BC). Lets use 405 grs, 1,330 fps, 27 grs Bullet Weight: 405 (gr) Bullet Velocity: 1330 (fps) Powder Charge Weight: 27 (gr) Firearm Weight: 7.2 (lbs) Recoil Impulse 2.99 (lbs.sec) Recoil Velocity 13.37 (fps) Recoil Energy 19.99 (ft.lbf) Mass: 405 (gr) Velocity: 1330 (fps) Energy: 1591 (ft.lbf) 2157 (joules) .44/40 The ballistic information based off three grain types for the .44 WCF muzzle velocity is 1,245 ft/s (200 gr), 1,190 ft/s (217 gr), and 750 ft/s (225 gr). So say 200 grs, 1250 fps and say 10 grs Bullet Weight: 200 (gr) Bullet Velocity: 1250 (fps) Powder Charge Weight: 10 (gr) Firearm Weight: 7.2 (lbs) Recoil Impulse 1.33 (lbs.sec) Recoil Velocity 5.95 (fps) Recoil Energy 3.96 (ft.lbf) Mass: 200 (gr) Velocity: 1250 (fps) Energy: 694 (ft.lbf) 941 (joules) .44 Magnum Say 300 grs , 1250 fps, 15 grs (?) Bullet Weight: 300 (gr) Bullet Velocity: 1250 (fps) Powder Charge Weight: 15 (gr) Firearm Weight: 7.2 (lbs) Recoil Impulse 2 (lbs.sec) Recoil Velocity 8.93 (fps) Recoil Energy 8.92 (ft.lbf) Mass: 300 (gr) Velocity: 1250 (fps) Energy: 1041 (ft.lbf) 1411 (joules) Will continue in a moment.Looking for info on the .577 Eley Revolver cartridge |
