Lyman has data listed for several differing strength actions. This data is also dependent on the case used as there might be old balloon style heads out there.

In the strongest action, the Ruger #1 and #3, velocities range to 2400 ft/second with this bullet. That will bring donw ANY North American game, Polar and Grizzley included.
