Power
Power is dependant on the practicalities of gun weight and recoil. Like most 3"+ 585 wildcats it will exceed 2,600 ft/s (790 m/s) with a 750gn bullet for near 11,400 ft·lbf (15,500 J) muzzle energy (roughly 4 times the power of 7.62 Nato).

Famous quotes containing the word power:
“Germany will either be a world power or will not be at all.”
—Adolf Hitler (1889–1945)
“So immense are the claims on a mother, physical claims on her bodily and brain vigor, and moral claims on her heart and thoughts, that she cannot ... meet them all and find any large margin beyond for other cares and work. She serves the community in the very best and highest way it is possible to do, by giving birth to healthy children, whose physical strength has not been defrauded, and to whose moral and mental nature she can give the whole of her thoughts.”
—Frances Power Cobbe (1822–1904)
“You cannot have power for good without having power for evil too. Even mother’s milk nourishes murderers as well as heroes.”
—George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)
