这公式,除了子弹重及速度外,加了口径为其一参数。这也就是说,以同等材质(full metal jacket),同等弹型(不是实心比 hollow point or softpoint),口径是一决定因素。
以.45ACP 及 9mm 为例,9mm子弹速度较快,但.45acp 的knockout 指数比 9mm 多了68%。
一切条件均等是“同样弹型”,“同样材质”。在射击时,外在条件一样。当然,你可以说许多不一样的条件出来,你的条件必须是要可讨论的。
Taylor KO Factor is a formulaic mathematical approach for evaluating the stopping power of hunting cartridges. The term "KO" is an acronym for "Knock Out." The Taylor KO Factor (TKOF) is a derived figure that allows hunters to compare bullets with respect to stopping power. The TKOF was developed by John "Pondoro" Taylor, a famous mid-20th century hunter and poacher of African big game. The factor is computed using Equation 1.
- (Equation 1)
Where
- is the bullet mass in grains (1 pound = 7000 grains)
- is the bullet velocity in feet per second
- is the bullet diameter in inches
Some examples of TKO factor's, and the factory loaded cartridge's derived from, are as follows:
