The relationship between kinetic energy and velocity is non-linear. Kinetic energy increases with the square of the velocity, KE=1/2 mv² (where m=mass of pellet, v=velocity of pellet)
Your units need to be Kg and Metres, and the answer will be in Joules. So roughly, KE=1/2 x 0.001 x 167², = 1/2 x 0.001 x 27889, = 13.9445 Joules = 10.28 ft/lb
