Penetration depth is the maximum straight-line distance traveled by the pellet into the gelatin block. Pellet surface area is conceptually the same as `expanded diameter' for measuring hollowpoint expansion but the scientifically-relevant units of surface area are used in place of linear inches. KE Transfer up to 12" depth is a measure of the potential for causing damage up to and including the FBI required penetration depth for defensive ammunition.
