ORIGINAL: DANTHEHUNTER

Most soft point bullets are designed to expand at or around 2700fps. That just seems to be a magic number.No matter the calibur it just is the right muzzel velocity. ie ---30-06 180 gr 2700fps / 250 savage 100 gr 2700fps
Please understand, I'm not doubting you, but where ever did you find that data?

Ex. .30/06 180 gr., MUZZLE velocity 2700fps. Are we required to place the muzzle against the deer, or can we stand back a little?
