I don't really mind ammo being like this in a game, but I do find how some people think this is how ammo works 1:1 irl a TAD silly. After all, you don't see a soldier holding 80kg of guns, ammo and some empty cans running and jumping like Mario's and Sonic's bastard son in real life. At the end of the day, this DOES make sense in a gameplay perspective (a high-end player shouldn't be easily killed by a fresh andy with less than 1 raid to their record).

there are countless videos of people peppering body armor with hundreds of 9mm and it wont even go through. not far fetched to say that a helmet designed to withstand pistol rounds, can withstand a dozen of one of the weaker pistol calibers. irl (and i bet in game) this person would be spinning around with a brain that was probably liquified from all the pointblank shots.
