32a. Data and results for handgun cartridges
The handgun cartridges are the second-weakest ammunition considered here. Their lurches ranges from -0.02 to -0.40 ft s-1, which also cannot explain any part of JFK's rearward lurch. Notable in this group is James Files's alleged XP-100 Fireball ammunition, which creates a lurch of only -0.16 ft s-1. This shows that somebody made up Files's story.
