Sorry, but I like to think and experiment. I was a mechanical designer in a research laboratory. Curiosity, questioning and experimenting are part of my nature.
And yeah, NATO use a 9mm 124 gr. round all of my 9mm are loaded with it. I'm not arguing with its effectiveness, just wondering if it could be made even more effective, at least for close up work.
True detective? I'll give you the benefit of the doubt and
assume you're joking :-) If you want to use your design
experience to make 9mm ball more effective for close up
work then then learn from history and the Government military
ammo designers around the world. Create a 9mm 124 gr FMJ
design that tumbles in soft tissue quicker than the current
design. A 124 gr 9mm FMJ bullet is a good bit longer than
.45" I do believe.
