Excellent article on Penetration/Wounding

[Northman999]

Fellows,

I found an excellent article while I was doing some poking around on the internet:

http://www.rathcoombe.net/sci-tech/ballistics/methods.html

It's about bullet penetration and wounding properties; it covers about everything from pistol rounds to exotic African safari loads. It also explains why some "old, obsolete" rounds aren't dead yet when it comes to filling the freezer.

It's quite an interesting read.

And nobody's trying to sell anything, so I'm pretty sure I can put up the link.

I'm slowly working my way through the article, and thus far I have found that some of the findings mirror my own experience and findings while others stand in sharp contrast. Some of the results that the author found surprising, surprised me that he was surprised. Very interesting non the less.
