Hmmm. I just fooled myself there and forgot that there is no way (I think) to show the velocity squared. In addition, I have forgotten my schoolboy, metric system, units of energy.
p.s. don't forget to consider the mass of the powder charge
p.s.s. I'm sure you can google it
I swear, it was easy when I was a kid

The 260, depends heavily on projectile weight and whether or not I’ve had sex the night previous, but generally speaking a 140gn 260 will hurt for 38 seconds.
So what have I learnt? Well clearly - The shoulder is a better place to shoot from, than the testicles...
