FYI, there does exist an algorithm that is used to get GURPS damage numbers from muzzle velocity and caliber that Hans and David use to convert real-world stats to game values. It uses slightly more friendly numbers than mine (sqrt(KE) instead of sqrt (KE^1.04), for example) but produces self-consistent and reliable results. I've seen it, played with it a while back, and it's a fine model.
