Just messin' with ya.
Wanted to see if there was a RIP/jeffeosso/boomstick/Gerard/Warrior theory on this one.
Sorry, GeorgeS . . .

Now here is a subject I have lots of experience on!

Rat MotorFrom what I have seen on these forums about SD the theory is very clear........If you put all your faith in SD you are sure to get screwed.

surestrikeI am so sensitive a man that I often have tears streaming down my cheeks after sex.
Of course some other guys claim that the pepper spray does that to them too.

WarriorNo single parameter can be made absolute, in other words, it cannot stand on its own legs in isolation:
Not velocity
Not mass
Not momentum
Not energy
Not bore size
Not SD
Not Mo/Xsa
Not the construction of the bullet
One needs a combination of these factors like mass, bore size, velocity and how a particular bullet based on its construction will perform in a given velocity band. Bearing in mind that the situation is more complex than just a linear relationship due to increasing stagnation pressures as velocity goes up, and the multitude of expansion and mass reduction tendencies at varing velocities will yield a different result.
So we cannot just make simple statements like "Velocity" can replace or make up for "SD" or the other way round. SD can never be replaced; it is intrinsically present in any and all combinations, whether we like it or not. SD is an ever present ratio and not a "base" parameter.
The stupidity of making SD an absolute figure can be seen in the comparison of two bullets; one made from very soft rubber and the other from copper. The rubber bullet will probably bounce off the target whereas the copper bullet will penetrate and cause severe damage.

surestrikeWhen it comes to Sexual Destiny I agree with Warrior.
Bore size and velocity are important factors. However twist rate can also have some very important outcomes.
And don't forget that barrel length and diameter make a difference too!

I think GeorgeS does or he'd have moved this already!

At least one of these guys did not even have to duck to have the thread go right over his head.

RIPSexual Destiny: Determined in utero and not worth any further discussion here except to note how a thread title can be crafted to attract attention. The title is the topic of this thread.
I was ducking this nonsense until Rat Motor's comment about Warrior smoked me out. I suspect Warrior has a rubber fetish since he started talking about rubber bullets regarding sexual destiny.

I went to Florence, and enjoyed it. The weather was somewhat dreary, but the art treasures and the warmth of the people more than made up for it.

Sure it will. A large enough projectile can be dropped on a target with a crane and still take it out.

mr,
I know what this is about.
You never got over me making fun of your shooting stick technique.
And I am still right on that one.
