Episode 100: Attack of the User Questions (Podcast – Season 2, Ballistic Radio Episode 100, February 22nd, 2015)

“The whole energy transfer or energy dump, is a very 1980’s concept… In handgun calibers specifically, though, energy transfer or hydrostatic shock is not something that really is part of the terminal ballistic equation. The only thing we’re looking at is the permanent crush cavity caused by the bullet…Then why do manufacturers list it?(Ft.-lbs. of energy) Because, once again, people that don’t know what they’re talking about think it’s important.” – John Johnston
