Glad you guys are ok.
Thanks God never, few splashes at steel matches but nothing serious, seen plenty.
Mostly brought by ER rescue to the Trauma centers were I did-do work over the years.
Seen on head, necks, limbs, torso, abdomen, butts,with provably several calibers/slugs some survive some don't.
Direct hits or bouncing in walls or floor give gave me and the MD the challenge to find the paths of penetration and internal damage before going to OR.
Gave me experience to affirm there is not perfect round, not perfect shooter.
Placement is a big number on the equation, rounds delivered, distance, BMI of the victim and how the target dressed (layers.)
I have seen small calibers producing a horrendous internal damage or a perfect shot to a running gambler to his butt going through the pelvic foramina with not other damage than stitches back and front .
Hope you, JeffBuurgess and Entropy have prompt recovery.
