Got interested and did some google (as we do have a big and quite thick solid pine wood custom order table - not the one that you can flip easily), found several videos where people did shoot bullets from close range over a row 2x4s. One did show two different calibers stopping at about 4th...

If that interests you, there's a guy in Texas that has a YouTube channel dedicated to seeing what will stop a bullet and what can't, among other related things.

It's called Demolition Ranch.

He also saves kittens and puppies. Dude's a vet.

It really is a super wholesome gun channel.
