2 There's always AP for a good through-and through but availability might be a problem - and less confetti.

3 I think I saw a "Mythbusters" about this very topic. The verdict was that a bullet carries enough kinetic energy to penetrate, but not enough kinetic energy to translate into violent motion in the target.

4 It's going to depend on the bullet. Even shooting paper targets with different loads tells me that some penetrate cleanly, and others don't. Hollow-points in particular are designed to expand once they reach their intended targets: they "mushroom" on impact (or, in some cases, peel out into a star shape, and continue spinning as they tear through the material). Keep in mind also that hunters are able to observe the effects of their loads on the wound channels in game they hunt. And homicide detectives see instances where various loads will enter the human head, and take large chunks of the brains out the back. So we know it happens. It's just a question of the ammunitions used.

5 230 grain FMJ will probably go through that--it's said to be able to penetrate about 2' of muscle and was tested for the 1911 on young steers. And yes, long rifle is cheating. Some guys I used to hunt with sighted in one year on a 9" diameter pine tree and were surprised to find exit holes (from expanding rounds). I'd personally recommend an expanding bullet, though, to do maximum damage. It would still probably go through, leaving daylight the size of your fist.
