44 mag foot pounds of energy - 09/22/2008 6:11 PM
According to WY game and fish regulations I have to have a certain amount of foot pounds of energy (500)at 100 yards in addition to caliber restrictions etc. Any one aware of a fpe calculator on the net that I can use. I have found ones for factory loads but these are my handloads with a 240 grain Keith style bullet with no GC. The velocity is around 1100 fps but I would Chronograph it out of this particular gun before taking it to the field. My other 44 mag load the gun really likes is a 300 grain XTP with a maximum dose of H110 which easily meets the restrictions but it eats me up out of my flat top Ruger after just a few rounds.
Thanks
