:Doubtful that the ban will result in more murders,"

I said nothing about more murders, that is your added content. I'm not sure if you do not understand terminal ballistics or if you just want to avoid the truth and defend this BS policy.

Terminal ballistics is how the bullet performs when it hits, enters, and penetrates a target, and how it expands and displaces energy into that body. The crap ammo that they want to ban just punches nice neat little holes in the front, does not expand, and caries most of its energy out the back of a target if it does not hit solid bone.

That is what they want to get rid of. They will not decrease the amount of ammo on the market, just the type of bullets loaded into the ammo.

The bullets that will be mandated will be the expanding type. When they hit a target they instantaneously begin to expand in diameter some even fragmenting. They will still penetrate to vital organs but now they will leave a much larger wound channel and displace almost all of the stored energy into that body. Pretty nasty stuff really. What a concept the mandated bullets are much more lethal than the outlawed ones.... This is obama bot logic at work.

Every word of this is well known fact. All of our states do not allow hunting with bullets that are not of the expanding type because they want the game to be killed and not just wounded.

So you see more murders, as in your fantasy, are not needed in this. More people who are shot with the new mandated bullets will die than would if shot with those that the obama bots are outlawing.

Get a clue. this is a very stupid idea and can not be supported if you understand even the basics of ballistics and terminal ballistics.

Guns and ammunition is the only subject in here that people think they can say anything about using words that they do not understand and then claim that their ignorance doe not effect the validity of their BS statements and claims.

That, it is. I disagree with the bait for the hooked up political establishment to outlaw all other .556 cartridges and supplies. Also disagree with outlawing the near useless, newfangled, M-4 cartridges, even though 55-grain rounds and 20-inch barrels were more adequate for their general task.
