[QUOTE="WildRose, post: 2420193, member: 30902"] I hate when I do that. Here's to make up for it. [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.themeateater.com/wired-to-hunt/whitetail-hunting-gear/is-hydrostatic-shock-real[/URL] [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.ballisticstudies.com/Knowledgebase/Effective+Game+Killing.html[/URL] Now the 2nd article goes into more detail separating out the neurological effect (Hydrostatic Shock) and the physical aspects of tissue damage from fluids being forced through the body at supersonic or near supersonic speeds, (Hydraulic Shock) and the effects of each. It' a long read but well worth the read. Personally I prefer the term "Hyperstatic Shock", referring to the shockwave and massive increase in pressure it causes as that hydraulic wave passes through the body. "Static" or "Stasis" refers to the natural pressure levels that exist throughout the body, "Hyper" of course referse to the near instantaneous explosion of pressure that accompanies the shockwave as it forced the fluids away from the projectile at many times normal body pressure. Anyhow, enjoy the reading and take from it what you will. [/QUOTE]
