The problem (and disadvantage ) that ballistics have , of course, is that even superior ballistics will never make up for a poorly placed shot, so you have the "expert" at a disadvantage before he even speaks!!

Not to mention that neither interior nor exterior ballistics have nothing to do with bullet terminal performance. Three totaly different topics of discussion. Here, the topic is bullet performance as far as I can see anyhow.
