Wallop VS Authority. What’s the difference?

[Idaho Brad]

If Ty Freel said he dropped a blacktail spike with a 243 this is what 90% of the comments would sound like

Funny you mention T. Freel
I asked him the difference to which he said he’s not sure. I told him I’d start a RS thread on it and here we are

I think y'all are overlooking how my a magnum belt and walnut stock impact both.

If bullet weight and velocity are the same, a 300 magnum will have more wollop than a little ole 06

And if you fire it out of a walnut stocked rifle, it has more authority.

All a sliding scale, graded on a curve.

Extra wallop and authority if the rifle is unsuppressed, heavy factory trigger and said walnut stock has the original recoil pad.

Thank you! I can't believe I forgot about those multipliers!

Don't you mean hard plastic or metal butt plate?

Get a load of this product of participation trophies and his talk about recoil pads...

Wallop = internal ballistics
Authority = external ballistics
Knockdown = terminal ballistics

Ain't you guys never been to Elmer's school of gun learnin?
