Here is a bit of a question for everyone. I have seen all sorts of pictures of expanded rounds of every type and have heard of and looked into all sorts of effects of bullets on tissue. What no one seems to mention in their reports is the rotation of the bullet as it passes through soft tissue. Even without using something like a Ranger T series, a fully expanded hollow point has some "petals" that sure seem like they are going to do some cutting if they keep rotating at several thousand RPM as they pass through soft tissue. This leads me to the question.
What happens to the rotation of a bullet as it passes through soft tissue?
Does the temporary wound cavity negate the effects of any cutting/tearing a rotating bullet would do?
