Maytime, thank you.
I will sit down and attempt to get a handle on that.
Thank you for the time. (no pun intended).



I did have college physics a lifetime ago...and now it's probably just enough knowlege (left in memory) to be dangerous to myself! I think I will take a community college class just to settle my ongoing "stopping power" debate once and for ALL!

And, everyone please notice that this "stopping power" debate didn't turn into the opinionated "insult exchange" that typically happens on that topic...thanks again to the "quiet professionals" on this forum. Thanks to ALL for that!
MUCH appreciated. Any more clarifications/explainations/simplifications are WELCOME!

Oh yeah, for what it's worth I'm talking about small arms at sea level on the surface of the earth.
I'm not too worried about the difference in LB (weight/force) if it's on the moon, and all my projectiles are small arms so I don't have to adjust my trajectory for the gravitational pull of the moon either. We can assume sea level small arms calculations.
