    It’s guntuber theory vs real world observations.

    YouTube and US forums are full of ballistic gel ‘penetration’ tests and an obsession with projectiles holding together and exiting the animal with no evidence to show that these are desirable traits in a good killing bullet.

    At the same time most people agree that fmj pencilling through was a severe handicap when it came to putting down enemy combatants…go figure

    Hit probability with a proven projectile is the only objective measure. With .223 that comes down to wind calling in order to determine the max effective range for a given shooter.
