A friend of mine has a cigarette lighter cover made from the case of a bullet for a sniper rifle. This thing is about 15mm across, and is rated as a light anti tank weapon at ranges of up to a mile. It is also pretty much the largest calibre weapon that can be fired by a human being - and then they have to be well braced and very strong to fire it.
Any person hit by this thing is going to be dead or very seriously injured, wherever it hits. The shockwave from the impact will shatter all nearby bones, and the exit wound will be huge. The force of the impact alone is probably enough to kill someone.
You dont want to waste your time aiming at someones head. Aim at the central body mass and you are more likely to hit - and therefore more likely to kill - your target.
You just don''t get it!
