As an example--he sd in the .300 range--you need velocity of around 2300 plus to be effective were as if sd is .340 velocity of around 2100 will suffice..





Could this explain Taylor and Mussa Issa's enthusiasm for the .450/.400s? The Woodleigh solids have SDs of .338 and .344 (depending on dia.). Loaded to the lower velocity, these would seem to give the required bang with not much buck.
