    If I understand the rules properly, my rounds need to make minor power factor out of the gun I'm actually shooting, right?

    Which means:

    (bullet weight in grains) X (speed in ft/s) >= 125,000
    Just to claify. That formula is for minor power factor.

    (bullet weight) x (velocity/feet per second)
    ___________________________________=Power Factor(pf)
    1000

    Power Factor for Minor is 125

    Power Factor for Major is 165
