Risking the the reeducation squad and the epa I have to say from
personal experiance that for "spectacular display of dismantlement",
throwing a printer off a multi-story building on to pavement is a way
better show then shooting one. Plus I don't have much experiance with
soft targets, but I have used millary hollow-points (wierd in that
they where hollow point riffle ammo with a steel cores, but again they
were of soviet design). They did make bigger holes but still just
holes in the metal and wood object that we were shooting at.
