Interesting test:
What happens when you place the muzzle of a firearm against a target? Do the escaping gases "inflate" the bad guy? A S&W 638 is fired in contact with calibrated 10% gelatin.
BB: 586.5 fps, 3.2"
Impact velocity: approximately 900 fps
Penetration: 14.1"
Retained weight: 134.5gr
Max expansion: 0.554"
Min expansion: 0.426"
It definitely tore up the clothing pretty well and added a lot of powder particles to the wound, but it doesn't look like the wound is any worse than normal. For comparison, here is a previous test of the same ammo:
