Ha! Cars are like bullets. Light construction on a heavy animal leads to lots of expansion with out much penetration
Whats the cartridge you LOVE to HATE?

Beloved .30-30.
I'm not sure I hate any caliber. I do have fond memories of shooting a Remington pump action 30.06 a long time ago. The way it slapped me gently on the shoulder was so nice... It's the only rifle that I've given away (to a family member).
I absolutely despise AR's. I've been saying that since they hit the civilian market. I hate all 8 of the AR's that I built and own (including the two I gave (ahem transferred) to my sons when they got out of the USAF) and I'm going to hate the next two that I build. In fact, thanks to this thread, I think I'll buy a 6.5 Creedmoor barrel for the next one. I should really be able to hate that thing. Now that I've read this thread I hate my 7mm Rem Mag and .308. Stupid things...
OH and suppressors! I hate those too. I bought a couple of those things, it took a year to get permission to take possession, and you know what? Those things won't fire a round! They don't have a chamber. They don't have a barrel. No firing pin, no stock. NOTHING. It's a good thing too. They are so short you might "put your eye out kid". It's the silliest looking firearm / handgun I've ever seen. It's like they aren't even a firearm and have no business being regulated or something.
Good quality scopes. Those things suck. Ok that goes too far. Scopes are good...
I didn't know I had so much hate in me. In keeping with the times "It's not my fault". It's all you social influencers fault. I was perfectly normal-ish until I read this thread. Gun lives... err calibers matter! Stop the hate! Blah-t-blah!

I went from s series to 1/2 ton as the mid size always seemed to be maintenance hogs.
I throttled a deer in S.D. last year with my heavy 1/2 Chevy (2018) WHILE pulling my camper down the interstate. I hit the deer so hard it ended up where it started, only a few yards down the road, but a whole lot more dead. There was damage to the truck, but we continued the vacation and got the camper home.

Lefty, you hit a deer with a 1/2 ton Chevy and continued your vacation…. must've been a "very, very" small deer! 
Or….it was a very short vacation! 
Sorry I couldn't resist the Chevy remark! memtb

If friends gave me a 6.5 Creed I'd have my gunsmith rebarrel it to a more favored chambering ... like .222 Rem, 250-3000, 7mm-08 or .308 Rem!
... this is in reference to the bamboozling of butterbean - his "friends" bought him a 6.5 creed as a friendly prank haha ...

Somebody whack his forehead!
Probably the hardest kicking rifle I have ever shot. My Barrett 50's are much more pleasant.
