Kentucky Ballistics ran the caliber-vs-stopping-power debate — but he only tested half the equation. I break down what ballistic gel can never show you: what a bullet actually does to living bone, periosteum, and the tissue gel doesn't have.
⏱️ CHAPTERS
00:00 Why "caliber" never appears in my op notes
00:23 What surgeons actually chart instead of caliber
02:31 Permanent vs temporary cavity, explained
04:05 Elastic vs inelastic tissue — why it matters
05:07 The "caliber doesn't matter" argument, tested
07:15 Handgun head wounds kill more — the data trap
09:49 Rifle wounds carry worse odds once corrected
11:03 Handgun vs rifle femur fracture X-rays
11:28 Periosteum: the layer that decides if bone heals
12:45 When bone fragments become secondary bullets
13:20 Why ballistic gel can't show the real damage
14:33 My trauma zone framework, updated: 2A vs 2B
15:57 What we still don't know about outcomes
16:56 How this connects to chronic joint breakdown
