Original Note:
Exit wounds associated with AR-15s are often the size of a grapefruit. Due to bullet velocity, organs are "eviscerated" and bone, "reduced to rubble." It creates a cavity in the body, not a hole. As a military-in-origin weapon, the goal is maximum bodily damage. https://www.brookings.edu/blog/fixgov/2022/05/27/examining-gun-reform-with-x-ray-vision/ https://www.mcall.com/health/mc-hea-ar-15-wounds-20190629-pttjqemgcrhkxmfm5pzsb7uq6u-story.html https://www.theatlantic.com/politics/archive/2018/02/what-i-saw-treating-the-victims-from-parkland-should-change-the-debate-on-guns/553937/
