You need target practice!

upon impact the head of the bullet flattens out,
Thus causing much more damage as it penetrates.

Imagine this. You shoot something and the bullet goes in one side and out the other. There is a hole all the way through what you shot, but unless you hit something vital it is still alive, although in pain. That hole through it doesn't cover much of the volume, so chances are you didn't hit anything important. Also most of the energy in the bullet left when the bullet exited the other side.

Now imagine a bullet that either fragments or expands somehow on impact. That bullet isn't just going straight though. Much more volume is covered during its path through the body. also a lot more energy is imparted from the bullet to the body causing considerably more damage.

Come out this way, i have two big ass coons that need a few holes in them. I pegged one with my pump pellet gun, when i shot the bastard he turned, looked at me and sachayed (sp) off while giving me the finger with his tail.

This is one of the funner threads I have read today. So are you going to be taking a tomato soup bath tonight? I think that's what they did on the brady bunch.

Hollow point? was he wearing kevlar?

Hollow points don't go through kevlar nor are they designed to.

Actually, upon impact a hollowpoint bullet will mushroom becoming about twice it's original diameter. This is much more devastating to soft tissue than a FMJ bullet. The bullet will impart almost all of it's energy to the target rather than passing through it.

PoleCat = 0...............Dan = 1

OK, I'll give him a percentage. My clothes are burning in the trash barrel, I am out three hollowpoints and I won't have any friends for a while.

On the plus side you can call Cletus and tell 'em you're gonna be eatin' fine tonight!
