Post Killing Power : Formulas/discussion

The Hornady site gives a big 200yd power advantage to the .17Hornet 20gr over its' .22Hornet 35gr ammo. What the heck?

Would the lighter .17H be a more reliable kill past 100yds than its' 22 brothren; both share the same casing? 20gr is pretty lite.

What other factors, ratings, and such indicate the animal (?yote) will drop or only run a short distance?
