To incredibly simplify . . . it seems that the shockwave generated by a bullet impact (a shcokwave that is greater in larger caliber, heavier, faster moving, expanding bullets) my in fact be able to imped the equivalent of BLUNT FORCE TRAUMA upon the nervous system AND create an tremendous, instantaneous spike in blood pressure that can be translated and amplified through our blood filled arteries (like a fiber optic cable) to the brain and heart. Thus, these two concepts combined may in fact aid in the bullets over all effect of incapacitation over bullets that do not do this as good . . . More then than if your read these "novels" you will find that studies have demonstrated this to be a reality. . .

There . . . super-simplified.
