I was recently referred to a wonderful site devoted to ballistics with regard to barrel length, ammunition, and bullet speed:
http://www.ballisticsbytheinch.com/
It was one of the most thorough and scientific (and down-to-earth!) studies I have ever seen.
My SPEED questions:
- Are there any other great sites you can recommend concerning bullet speed with regard to other ballistic factors such as expansion & mushrooming, clothes, distance, etc. ?
- Are there any ADVERSE effects of bullet speed, such as premature mushrooming, fragmentation, etc. that have been well documented or from your personal experiences?

Thank you!
