I will admit to surprise, but that wound channel looks pretty narrow -- similar to Tony's description of the M-1 Carbine ball round.
I know that the blunt shape of .38 Special wadcutters and semi-wadcutters make a difference on rabbits. I wonder if a truncated cone might still get through the vest but have more effectiveness in the gel.
Alternatively, go with a longer, pointed bullet.
