220 gr SMK at approx 1040 fps from a suppressed Contender.

Raccoon at 60 yds shot through both shoulders, little hole in, little hole out, ran about 50 yds and stopped to rest. Had to be shot again.

Raccoon #2 was shot same distance, but in the head, dropped immediately.

A possum shot through the breast and ran over 100 yds little hole in, little hole out.

Third Raccoon shot from 20 yds away.The exit wound was about 2" long and narrow. Either he was fat enough to give the bullet time to yaw or it hit a big enough bone to upset it. He still ran about 75 yds and had to be shot again.

Shooting a watermelon isn't shooting animal tissue, but you can see that exact same thing with the 220gr SMK in my video. Small hole in, small hole out with no movement whatsoever from the watermelon.

I did read somewhere that the 240gr SMK behaves substantially differently in tissue, but I can't find that thread right now.
