Assess for number of<unk>  to help determine if projectile may still present in body
Exit<unk> may not follow logical trajectory
Strongly consider not documenting "entrance" vs. "exit" given medicolegal implications if not completely sure
Entrance<unk> (typical features)
Round, punched out hole
Marginal abrasion or abrasion ring
+/- fouling (soot)
+/- stippling (punctate abrasions from<unk> powder impact)
Exit<unk> (typical features)
Usually larger (except head)<unk> edges may be reapproximated
No marginal abrasion
Slit-like, stellate, circular
Irregular due to loss of kinetic energy, bullet deformation, yaw
Range of fire
Contact (< 12 inches) → fouling/soot, muzzle stamp (tight contact)
Intermediate (2.5-3.5 feet) → +/- fouling, stippling
Distant (>3.5 feet) →<unk> only<unk> gun extrance<unk> 
Marginal abrasion, fouling, stippling
Plastic wad may be found in body if range <5-10 feet
Close range (<12 inches) may have ~1 inch diameter single hole with fouling
3 feet - round hole, scalloped edges, stippling
4 feet - round hole, scalloping, satellites
Distant (>10 feet) - pellet spread
