KE wont help as much as KE with more momentum. You would have a better chance if you could increase both, More so then just increasing Kinetic Energy alone. Some will argue but you cant push a bowling ball through a wall unless it has some momentum to  help penetrate. JMO.
I would also not try a shoulder shot. Stick with a double lung or heart.

Well put, now go kill a big bull already! O wait its not quite time.  :chuckle:
Hopefully Dad and I tag out and I can come help.  :dunno:
