FWIW, from what I have seen in live hogs the BH M-262 NATO ammunition when fired out of a 12 inch 1/7 twist barrel at 5 yards demonstrates very poor fragmentation characteristics with respect to either rear appendage or thoracic cavity impacts.

Should have some new tissue pics in the near future but I would expect similar results. I have been told that the M-262 also demonstrates very little live tissue fragmentation after penetrating soft body armor. Perhaps that can be documented as well.
