[QUOTE="Deleted member 115360, post: 2195482"] It's a theory, His theory. He says it very plainly. I don't disagree with what he is saying. I don't pretend to know the unanswerable, (with our current science) answer to the question that both theories aim to answer, which is: what is the mechanism of death? What I'm talking about is meat damage. I was using "hydrostatic shock" to explain how a bullet passing through flesh causes damage as it passes. I probably should have used a different phrase, but I didn't expect people to have the reaction that they had to the term. My point Was that as a projectile passes through flesh, it rapidly displaces fluid, which is what we typically call "bruising" when analyzing a dead animal.. This phenomena is made more severe by several factors, but the big 3 would be: Energy Velocity and Projectile diameter The more those numbers go up, the more fluid is displaced, causing more potential meat damage. Since no 2 animals are the same, it would be virtually impossible to scale this. Thank you for sharing the article, I will read the rest of it now.. [/QUOTE]
