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:
TKO Factor | Name | Mass (gr) | Velocity (fps) | Bullet Diameter (in) |
