While waiting/hoping for Tomas to address the issue, I can’t help but reflect that a single bullet hitting the same target multiple times isn’t really all that contrived — which also comes down to the rationalisation of the “Magic Bullet”.
It all depends on the position and pose of the person taking the hit/s, in relation of the direction the bullet comes from.
A simple example: a person is standing straight, with his shoulder to the direction the bullet comes from. It hits his arm, missing any bones it passes clean through, and hits his chest.
Or, picture a person holding a weapon in front of him. A bullet coming from his front might hit an arm, pass through, and hit the torso.
If he was aiming with the weapon, a hit might strike his head after passing through an arm.
By the same principle though, it could also be possible for a single bullet to score hits on two separate individuals in reasonably close proximity.
