[QUOTE="Pstmstr, post: 3953701, member: 51164"] I’m referring to the results of the tests in the article link I posted. I realize test conditions vary. The rounds in this test were all fired from the same revolver at the same place, time, etc. I’ve also looked at some of Lucky Gunners tests. Some say all gel tests mean nothing. I’ve also fired rounds of various types at water filled jugs which really mean nothing except which round is most effective against water filled jugs. Kind of fun to see the results though. I think most agree that expecting any round to expand reliably when fired from a handgun to is a crap shoot at best. In the test I posted the 110 Gr Hornady CD round fares no better than others and worse than some. Penetration depth and low recoil seem to be the best indicators for choosing a snub round. [/QUOTE]
