To say the truth I have no idea about ballistics. Anyway, I thought you will find interesting this link:

It's great. Try to look into it and post a comment here if you want.

High-velocity bullets increase gun efficiency by increasing the speed at which the bullet travels, which in turn increases its kinetic energy and impact force. This allows for greater accuracy and range, as well as more effective penetration of the target.
The use of high-velocity bullets can pose a higher risk of over-penetration and collateral damage, as well as increased recoil and potential damage to the firearm itself. There may also be legal implications, as some countries or states have restrictions on the use of high-velocity ammunition.
Generally, guns with longer barrels and higher muzzle velocities are better suited for high-velocity bullets. This includes rifles, shotguns, and some handguns. It is important to consult with a firearms expert to determine the compatibility of your specific gun with high-velocity ammunition.
High-velocity bullets can significantly improve the performance of a firearm by increasing its range, accuracy, and impact force. However, it is important to also consider the potential risks and limitations of using these types of bullets.
In addition to the type of gun and potential risks, it is important to also consider the type and quality of the ammunition itself. Different brands and types of high-velocity bullets may have varying effects on the performance and functionality of a firearm. It is important to carefully research and select the appropriate ammunition for your specific firearm.
