If I'm not mistaken, hollow point ammo shot through pistol caliber carbines frequently do not penetrate as much as fired from a pistol due to the carbine's higher velocity causing the bullet to mushroom out quickly and thus the parachute effect occurring.
The above said, should there be hollow point ammo specifically for pistol cal carbines with a thicker jacket so it doesn't mushroom out too quickly and thus penetrates sufficiently?
I heard of soft point ammo for pistol cal carbines but haven't read anything about their performance through a medium like ballistic gel.
