[QUOTE="edge, post: 291543, member: 5030"] I certainly have no direct proof. I do like the some of the information done by Veral Smith of LBT. You may be able to find this book somewhere: [url=http://www.firearmstactical.com/bulletpenetration.htm]Order Page for Bullet Penetration: Modeling the Dynamics... - by Duncan MacPherson[/url] and for a reasonable fee these folks will shoot Ballistic Gel with your bullets: [url=http://brassfetcher.com/index.html]Brass Fetcher Ballistic Testing[/url] I must admit that I would prefer a bullet to penetrate deeply to guard against bone and poor hits ( big game ). A bullet that makes monstrous wound channels must end up shorter on penetration. I am not a believer in a bullet that passes through an animal has "wasted" energy in the dirt. These are just my personal preferences. Sorry that I don't have anything more concrete for you. edge. [/QUOTE]
