I thought this was a really interesting experiment. The heavier slower bullets seemed to do better than the smaller fast ones.
The .357 Sig loss of velocity is particularly surprising to me, but then again that Speer Gold Dot has a pretty wide hollow point for the caliber of the bullet.
It would be interesting to see them do more testing with different brands of premium defense ammo, and maybe some 10mm too. Not that it's terribly useful information for self defense, but it's cool that they did it.
