Wow that is really disappointing. Is that why that Paul Harrel guy was using food items? And is 357 too slow to cause tearing like that then? Hydrostatic. I was lead to believe this would work like that because of the speed of that round.
I'll look up lucky gunner, too. Thanks for breaking all this down for me. It's looking like bullets have gotten a lot cheaper recently so I might as well get some hp.
Yes, the meat analog he uses, though not perfect, is the closest to a real-world test that a regular person could reasonably perform themselves.
357 out of a revolver is indeed still too slow, even with lighter bullets. Only in a lever action carbine does 357 start to reach the required power to perform some hydrostatic tearing, since 357 is really able to take advantage of that extra barrel length to increase velocity fairly dramatically.
There was an extremely comprehensive video done on real-world wound ballistics that I was struggling to find for my last comment, but I found it just now, once again thanks to Luckygunner.
He gives a summary of it here, and also made this video as a supplement, but if you'd like to see the absolute last word on firearm wound ballistics, I'd suggest this full documentary featuring Dr. Martin Fackler (but be warned, it has some quite gory NSFW images as examples).
Oh hell yeah. Thank you so much!
No prob! :)
