The guy who does the Chopping Block and ARFCOM gel tests on youtube is telling me that if bullets like the 65gr Gameking and 77gr TMK are performing differently in animals than the way they woefully underpenetrate in his tests, I must be gut shooting deer with grandpappys mini 14.

Mind you the tests are shot like 2 feet from the block, which is fine if you have a focus on self defense, but even from an 11" barrel, you're gonna get more than 13-14" penetration from a 77gr TMK at 2500 fps or like 10.5 inches from a 65gr Gameking at 2773 fps. Thats over 100 yards if you start it from a rifle barrel (vs carbine)

You can't make this stuff up.

What would I have done without guys like this to "educate" me on real world bullet performance haha

Doesn’t he perform tests at 15 yards or something not pertinent to hunting scenarios? I prefer a 100 yard gel test. Or at least 50.
