Hey, wait a minute. Isn't the whole point of the 147 to give the best penetration among the various 9mm bullet weights? Shouldn't that be 'superior' penetration?
No, the concept of the 147grn bullet would be to deliver as much kinetic energy to the target, at least in my mind. A heavy bullet traveling slower wouldn't necessary deliver more penetration than a lighter bullet traveling faster.

Anyway... I don't think that bullet performed particularly well, but at least it didn't come apart.
