> The exact velocity this occurs at goes up or down inversely with caliber

(NTA) my mind is blown. This never once occured to me, but I think you’re right. A bullet twice as wide will be radially redirecting flesh directly in front of it at twice the velocity. Does ogive shape matter here, or does the bullet tumble too quickly for ogive shape to make a difference?

This isn’t good news, because it means small calibers absolutely require a very high velocity. Something they’re gonna lose very quickly in flight.
