    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/.270_Winchester

    The .270 Winchester cartridge is equipped with a 130-grain bullet traveling at approximately 3,060 feet per second (fps). When sighted in to intersect 3 inches above the line of sight at 100 yards (about 90 meters), it maintains a trajectory that rises no more than 3.5 inches and aligns with the line of sight around 270 yards.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/.270_Winchester_Short_Magnum

    This new .270 cartridge was the third commercial .270 ever produced, and the first one in 60 years. [1] The 270 WSM is an improvement over the older 270 Winchester providing higher velocity with bullets of the same weight, and thus a flatter trajectory and more energy. Velocities tend to be about 250 ft/s (76 m/s) faster, in a cartridge that is ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/6.8_Western

    In 1925, Winchester introduced the .270 Winchester, previously known as the .270 WCF, based on the 30-06 Springfield case necked down to .277" (6.8 mm). Although the .270 Winchester was not an instant success, within a few decades it became one of the most popular big game hunting cartridges for mid sized game worldwide, because of its relatively mild recoil and flat trajectory within ...

    A guide to the recoil from the cartridge, and an indicator of bullet penetration potential. The .30-06 Springfield (at 2.064 lbf-s) is considered the upper limit for tolerable recoil for inexperienced rifle shooters.

    Range, time of flight and trajectory height: gyroscopic drift increases with all of these variables. density of the atmosphere: denser air will increase gyroscopic drift. Doppler radar measurement results for the gyroscopic drift of several US military and other very-low-drag bullets at 1000 yards (914.4 m) look like this:

    Also the muzzle energy is only an upper limit for how much energy is transmitted to the target, and the effects of a ballistic trauma depend on several other factors as well. There is wide variation in commercial ammunition. A 180 gr (12 g) bullet fired from .357 Magnum handgun can achieve a muzzle energy of 580 ft⋅lbf (790 J). A 110 gr (7.1 ...
