No reason in the world you need that much destruction and mayhem to be inflicted on your groceries! (see the link in my sig line).
I need a load that will kill deer like a champ, and I get that at 1800fps no problemo. However, the experimenter in me likes to know how fast, how long, how deep, how strong etc etc etc. Just like some people like to trick out a car to go faster than they would ever drive to work, I'm that way with boolits. Don't ask me why it's so deliciously invigorating! I don't have a clue! It's just something that I think about and enjoy (perhaps a little too much).
