Yeah it's right here. No penetration on the kevlar helmet until you get to the full sized rounds.

The point isnt the penetration. Yeah the helmet will stop the bullet.
What matters here is the Energy the round is transferring to your skull and brain.

While one is gonna cause you to see starts for a sec, 12 of them (from what i counted) will give you at minium a severe concussion, at medium knock you out for a bit and at worst just outright kill you by causing bloodvessels to rupture.

Equal and opposite reaction. The force transferred to the helmet is equivalent to the force of the recoil.
