Low velocity bullets don't. The magic speed seems to be about 2300 fps. Thing is the 'why' of it isn't settled. Cavitation is the theory that there is a wave of expanding gas following the bullet. Hydrostatic shock is the theory that the bullet essential breaks the sound barrier, which is different in mediums other than water. Anyway, really simplified... but the point is that we know the damage happens, what causes it is a theory.<br /><br />The wave action I'm talking about is a form of short power. You place your hand in contact with the threat (say on the sternum) and fa jing and he feels the pain in his spine. It's not penetration. It's not contra coup, and I was trained to call it a wave (though it is very different then wave power generation.)<br />Sigh. This just gets more complicated.<br /> Thanks for reading the blog through. It makes me feel good.Roryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08483616030072739190noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14473417.post-20502118100625564902009-06-08T22:50:14.074-07:002009-06-08T22:50:14.074-07:00I wanted to post a note on this one.

These are often the most devestating effects of gunshot wounds where the pressure wave the bullet causes during passage inflicts as much if not more damage than the bullet itself.<br /><br />And yes, I am going through and reading your blog from the beginning. <br /><br />-EgadAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14473417.post-51772092065917694162008-02-18T07:02:00.000-08:002008-02-18T07:02:00.000-08:00Any accident which results in jury should be treat...Any accident which results in jury should be treated seriously and the recipient should always be seen by a medical professional as soon as possible.
