I think most of the better performing handgun ammo we have today is because of the FBI handgun ammo test protocols.


Fackler and MacPherson are responsible for those protocols



No....not correct. Fackler and MacPherson studied and wrote about bullet wounds and the affects of bullets on the human body.

The FBI ran a series of tests designed to test hollow point handgun bullets by shooting them through barriers such as wallboard, steel, and auto glass before penetrating ballistic gelatin. The test ammunition was also tested for velocity and accuracy.

The more efficient bullets and accurate ammo we have today is the result of the FBI's testing.


If not fir Fackler and MacPherson at the FBI workshop after the Miami shootout laying out what mattered is how the FBI came up with the protocols


The FBI began the testing because they were looking at barrier penetration. Their tests and the resulting recommendations were about barrier penetration. The better bullet designs we use today are the results of the FBI tests.



All because of Fackler and MacPherson, whom taught the FBI the importance of a minimum amount of penetration.

You don't seem to know the history



I got banned on another web site for a debate that happened on this site. That's a first
