Okay, I have a question regarding using 9mm jhp (124gr - I think) inside a home. I have my Kahr K9 Elite loaded with Golden Sabre (124gr - I think) and I am comfortable using and shooting this round and gun. My question falls into the after the BG is shot...will the bullet still be travelling fast enough with enough energy to do damage BEHIND him.
Let's ASSUME that I have 100& accuracy in a HD shooting situation and I hit this BG with a triple tap and he hits the ground like a sack... Wil the 3 rounds that went into him still have enough velocity to travel through him and through any walls behind him (like into my daughters bedroom?)
The most likely shooting range inside my house in a HD scenario would be 7-10 yards with the potential of shooting TOWARDS an occupied bedroom. Now, like I said before, the shooting accuracy is assumed 100% for this question. Will I shoot that well in a real life case...Lord I pray that I do.
Will the jhp expand enough to stop in the wall behind this guy or will it still be travelling fast enough after 7 yards of air time and 12" of body mass/head shot to continue through the next wall and enter the bedroom?
Just a thought and a question. Would a slower moving bullet (lighter grains) be better for this situation? Obviously there are alternate rounds that are options, but let's assume that I only have 9mm for HD.
