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).

“Don’t you see what my power does for me? I could sit in on the councils of kings and dictators. It makes me king. It makes me—Nemesis.”

“We should seek by all means in our power to avoid war, by analysing possible causes, by trying to remove them, by discussion in a spirit of collaboration and good will. I cannot believe that such a programme would be rejected by the people of this country, even if it does mean the establishment of personal contact with the dictators.”
—Neville Chamberlain (1869–1940)
