"Show me a slab of balistics gel, that shows wound dimensions and penetration depths.

Until then, I see this nothing more than a big steamy pile of BS."


Ditto to that. Also, I find it seriously doubtful that the Secret Service counter-sniper squad uses frangible ammo. I'd really like to see the proof of that. Imagine a counter-sniper taking a shot at a wannabe presidential assassin who happens to be standing behind a car door, or wearing body armor for that matter. I'm sure that whatever loads they use are designed to penetrate structures and body armor and still reach a potential assassin, not bullets that disintigrate on impact.
