Muzzle velocity design. In a side by side comparison with the .50 BMG, the titanium round "of any caliber" released almost 28 times the energy of the .50 BMG, with only a 27% mean loss in momentum. Energy, in most cases, is what is lethal to the target, not momentum. In conventional guns, muzzle velocity is determined by the quantity of the propellant (burn speed, expansion), the mass of the projectile, and the length of the barrel. A slower-burning propellant needs a longer barrel to burn completely, but can, on the other hand, use a heavier projectile. A faster-burning propellant may accelerate
Mercy Multiplied three financial principles for the program: According to the three guiding principles that founder Nancy Alcorn established, the Mercy Multiplied website states that they do not accept government funding, and as such, are supported solely by donations from individuals, organizations and other ministries. With regard to fund raising events, Mercy Multiplied host gala dinners, Christmas donation drives and running marathons throughout the year, and invite visitors to their website to donate by becoming a financial partner or "sponsoring" a girl. Mercy Multiplied also sell resources to raise funds such as books and sermons by founder Nancy Alcorn, as well as
