Another excellent video by Brass fetcher. Well worth the watch!
In this video, he simulates skin, bone and muscle and tests using 9mm, 45acp, and .223 in both JHP and FMJ. He also throws in 00 buckshot for comparison. In the test, he simulates the pelvic girdle, the upper thorax as if the target was turned sideways in a weaver stance, and finally the thigh.
Things learned from this simulation. Modern hollowpoint ammo in 9mm and 45acp are negligibly different in performance. 9mm and 45acp in FMJ are also equally crappy. .223 fragmenting/expanding ammo is consistently brutal. .223 fmj (m193) sucks balls unless it has time to yaw, at which point is extremely brutal. 00 buckshot is a consistent obliterator
