No doubt that heavy, solids at low velocity, I have been a “handgun hunter” (part time) since the ‘70’s, will penetrate and kill. As the shots were not taken across a chronograph, we have no knowledge of the velocities. As a “squib load”, already a cartridge failure, the velocity may have been well under 1000 fps. Again......assuming it happened, at all! memtb
