Landon Michaels and Mitch Libby discuss terminal ballistics and best bullet choice for individual applications based on conditions and hunter preferences. They explore "knockdown power" and what modern ballistics and hunting bullets have taught us. Energy and impact velocity are compared in regards to their effectiveness in determining the lethality of a shot. Common long range bullet options are compared and contrasted for their benefits and weaknesses in various applications.
