So if I’m understanding this correctly you guys are saying more velocity and mass (energy) has no effect on how a bullet acts when it hits an animal or in other words terminal performance?
What has been said over and over is that it's bullet construction. Different types of bullets react differently at impact, and are designed to work within velocity windows.
The way a bullet acts when it hits an animal is going to be a reflection of construction and velocity. The bullet is either going to open up or it isn't.
If it was energy that made terminal performance, then every bullet would have the same terminal performance in the same weight and impact velocity.
