I could have chose any caliber and shown this perspective. As bigger case gets put behind the bullet, more power and energy is the result. As I increase case size, negatives arise like longer heavier actions, less mag capacity, more recoil, etc....
So why when max loads or a small cartridge size increase are discussed is this the common sentiment,
My point is the larger cartridges weren’t designed because there’s no impact to the trajectory or to the ability to provide terminal performance on game, these comments show a lack of understanding of the value of increased velocity. A 308 is not a 300 WinMag. Maybe the different ranges that they go subsonic can be our guide as to how science shows is that?
Your thoughts?

??....about 100 FPS faster than the same bullet out of a <next smaller round> . A target, animal, etc won't know the difference though.
