Good info to have in case I'm ever attacked by a Grainger catalog.

When I was at school at Auburn we went outside our trailer one night ( hold off on the trailer jokes lived in it for 4 years and sold it for more than I paid for it.) and shot the Auburn/Opelika phone book with a .22. Damn Auburn/Opelika phone booth is only about 1/2" thick. Dumbass neighbors called the cops and we convinced them that it was only fireworks. We also used to shoot our bows down the hallway of the trailer. We got pretty good with that 15 yard pin.

The McMaster books, while not as heavy have a little stronger cover, I like chooting them

The LSU play book doesn't stand a chance on stopping any of them.

What grain of ammo were you using?
.40 normally has more muzzle velocity and energy
.40 should penetrate more like in this video
Maybe the sharp point of the 9 vs the flat point of .40?

FMJ Penetration 9mm vs .40 vs .45

I just donated a thousand Grainger catalogs to our local police department. They will wear them on patrol. Nothing gets through the Grainger catalog!
