Damage / penetration map

Each point is a round: further right means more penetration; higher means more flesh damage.

Indices compare rounds only inside this caliber. Combat: 45% penetration, 35% damage, 10% armor damage and 10% velocity. Value divides that result by the reference price. Context badges use explicit thresholds and can overlap; hover or focus a badge to see its rule. Prices are snapshots, not live quotes.
