Wound ballistics is the study of what happens when a projectile enters animal (including human) tissue and causes a wound. Terminal ballistics is the study of what happens when a projectile hits anything. You could say that wound ballistics is a sub-field of terminal ballistics, but they are not the same. undo

The following paragraph suggests the US military have adopted these: they have explicitly NOT adopted hollow points (i.e. expanding bullets) as these contravene the Hague Convention. Open tips are visually similar but are not designed to expand and thereforeare consistend with the Hague Convention. Small difference, massive implications! undo Tag: Visual edit

In reality it's a combination of kinetic energy area density and sectional density. The momentum theory assumes that hard penetrators will achieve linear penetration of bulk ductile targets with speed. This is incorrect. Instead, every unit of material penetrated at low speeds is simply being crushed, torn, and/or cut by the pressure of the bullet. This will consume a constant amount of e... undo Tags: Mobile edit Mobile web edit
