Maybe some confusion regarding the function/intended purpose of bonded/barrier-blind ammo? Hint: It's not designed to penetrate "more barriers" than standard (fragmenting) ammo.
And again, most pistol-caliber rounds will zip through multiple layers of drywall with ease as well, often with more "lethality" than a .223 round after they exit. If you don't want to take my word for it, you can contact the FBI's FTU (or whatever they call it these days). They've done exhaustive scientific studies/experiments on the subject, and I'll defer to those results/conclusions over a couple YouTube vids. YMMV...
