My question is which wounding mechanism is more effective if you remove The Hague Convention from the equation? Fragmenting bullets have a more restrictive velocity requirement in which they are effective, but from what I understand they are more lethal than expanding bullets in most situations. Which one is optimal? Is the best solution one that combines both mechanisms, such as the 77 TMK?

Which round has the lowest fragmention threshold?

Which round has the lowest expansion threshold?

Which of the above rounds is more lethal?

Would the M855A1 with a tungsten core (ADVAP) just be the best of all worlds?
