Aim for the head, then apply a tourniquette to the neck just to be sure.
I’ve seen images of men with their testicles in a tourniquet and they did not look well at all. They weren’t even bleeding that much. It was less of a medical emergency and more of a hobby it seems.
as a non native speaker, what is a taint in this context?
Fwiw - the actual name is “perineum”, at least in the US.
Perforate their pelvic floor.
Murder on the pelvic floor
What is that gun‽ It looks like some kinda amalgamation of a bunch of different guns.
The stock looks like an ak but the magazine and fore end are screaming Turkish shotgun.
Looks like a G36c
That big artery in the inner thigh. … Yeah you can die pretty fast if it gets severed.
Femoral artery.
Femoral of the story
I have seen too many AI images of girls with guns recently.

Who would win? Private healthcare or a Phillips screwbullet?

Jfc I hope you’re not serious lol. These are self-defense rounds, meant to break apart inside the attacker or intruder, so you’re not shooting through walls, potentially killing people on the other side.
Part of a defense training class includes, “know your target and what’s behind it” for a reason
Nope, these are way worse. They’re supposed to overpenetrate. But they look like they’re supposed to expand and fragment, right?

They do really cool stuff inside ballistics gel because of the surface pressure on that flattened tip
These aren’t really that effective compared to a hollow point. They create a big visual in ballistic gel, but in a more realistic medium they act more like an improved FMJ, but still over penetrate badly (which isn’t a good thing in most cases).
They tend to be recommend as a bear round, where over-penetration is actually valuable and desired.
The same manufacturer actually makes a deeper cut version that doesn’t over penetrate called the xtreme defender, which is generally still worse than a good hollow point in standard calibers, but can be a good option for weaker calibers like .380, where hollow point under-penetrate.
however, for 9mm and above, you’re better off with a standard hollow point, which is more effective and far more affordable than the all-copper xtreme rounds.

xtreme defender… can be a good option for weaker calibers like .380,
That’s my use case. I load the 68gr defender over 4.1 grains of Win 231. These chrono 1,181fps out of the LCP’s 2.75" barrel. Feeds flawlessly, which surprised me a bit.
A couple months ago American Reloading had 68gr Defender pulls for 27.6 cents each which is about half price and in the ballpark of top-tier hollowpoints.
