[QUOTE="Orange Dust, post: 1531606, member: 92702"] Don't think anyone is starting a P contest or hijacking your thread. What you wrote is a valid comparison, but only to a point. The Military uses FMJ bullets for the most part, or used to. The bullets we use do not necessarily follow those models. While first shot hit probability is valid, energy at target notso much. Different bullets use that energy in different ways. This is why many bullet/cartridge combinations will humanely kill further than they should on paper. Ain't external ballistics fun everybody???
