What advantage is there to using frangible, penetrating ammunition?

No pass through’s, bigger energy dump, and bigger wound cavities. No Pass Through- the bullet is coming apart and only penetrates to 12″. If the target has an exit wound, it is not the bullet, just pieces of the core. If the core passes through, it would be like getting hit with a snowball if you were on the backside of the target. Bigger Energy Dump – by not exiting the target, the round expends all of its energy inside of the target, thus hitting the target full force. Bigger Wound Cavities – Typical wounds from our rounds are at least 2.5″ in diameter. If it is a 9mm 85 gr round, that is a .355″ bullet. So the bullet expands to roughly 7 times the original diameter. A normal bullet will expand to at most 2 times the original size. Bigger wounds, faster expiration date.
