That depends upon what you're shooting at the jugs, and how fast it's moving.... MarlinOwners penetration king vs Hydraulic shock that shatters a sawhorse (Video courtesy mt_sourdough on MarlinOwners.com) In contrast, these are the same bullets ("L" and "M") as shown in the second video, but fired from a .44 Mag into wet-pack newsprint at 950 fps. Penetration was within 20% of what the rifles did in the same wet-pack medium. But, of course, expansion was negligible. And, sometimes... bullets fired into water jugs simply decide to veer off course, out of the jug, and into oblivion.
