The terminal velocity of a rock is going to be pretty high. What I gather from various sources is that an 800 foot drop probably isn’t tall enough for a rock to hit terminal velocity (which surprises me). But some quick calculations suggests a 1 lb rock is going to hit with roughly the energy of a 44 magnum and it would actually hit harder than a bullet because the blunt impact would generate a massive concussive effect.
