What struck me about your OP, and you just confirmed it here, is that you KNOW it's a stupid thing to do......yet you do it anyway!
I didn't say I "know it's a stupid thing to do," I said I didn't start this thread to fuel arguments. Frankly, as I said in my first post, I remain unconvinced that JHPs are truly better - based on a combination of the following points:
1. I see comment after comment on this board and elsewhere on the net, where people make claims like, "It's obvious! JHPs will stop when they hit drywall/plywood/etc in homes, so over-penetration isn't an issue!!!11!" Or, "Ammo manufacturers and others have conducted so many tests proving that FMJ over-penetrates, and JHPs don't." The thing is, for every claim like these (always without a single cited source of the "information"), you'll find another claim refuting it.
2. The fact is I'm yet to ever actually see any of these tests, and trying to find anything other than gelatin or water tests online has proved impossible so far. Gelatin isn't flesh, plywood, or sheetrock; it is, for all intents and purposes, firm jello. In addition, for every comment I've seen by people stating that JHPs will collapse when FMJ won't (which would prevent over-penetration), I've seen another comment saying JHPs will "clog up" and function exactly like FMJs - even on basic cotton clothing.
If, by some chance, you do have a link to a video where someone tests penetration in plywood or sheetrock, comparing FMJs and JHPs, I'd love to see it. IMO this type of test, conducted properly, would give far more useful information than shooting ballistic gelatin - at least as far as over-penetration is concerned.
3. Then there's also the testimony of numerous medical professionals who insist that FMJs are the most consistent man-stoppers, based on cases seen in hospitals. A few quick links to a couple of those opinions can be found
