While I agree that disturbed media could have an impact on outcome, I see nothing indicating the order in which these were actually fired. It looks as though they simply listed them in order of penetration depth not necessarily order fired. I would think there would also be some anomalies in penetration order if they were listed by firing order even if most follow a deeper pattern due to the disturbed media.
One bet against this idea might be that most of the uber-reliable proven rounds like Gold-Dot and Golden Saber stayed exactly within FBI required depths. I would like to see some that didn't expand properly shot out of a 4" or 5" barrel to see if they work better. Hornady Critical Duty for instance is optimized for a duty weapon not CCW and states it on the box.
It does clearly show there are rounds that will get the job done nicely no matter what caliber weapon you have. This also represents a massive amount of work to compile.
