Wall penetration is a very analogue system, mostly based around the type of bullet and how far it has traveled already as well as thickness and type of the obstacle you hit.

For example, shooting a compact round at a fence within a few meters usually makes the bullet go through, however if you shoot from a longer distance, at some point the bullet will not be strong enough to pierce the fence anymore.

For trees it can mean that even a nitro bullet will eventually lose enough power over distance that it fails to penetrate a tree.

If it was through a tree, it likely just chipped through the outer part. Keep in mind, trees are round (duh!) which means the mass to penetrate is less to the sides than in the middle.

I know its a le meme but the uppercut is basically a Colt Walker. 1847ish I think and was made because a Texas Ranger officer wanted a pistol that could take down a man OR a horse. A bunch of the original 5000 went back to be fixed since the load was so hot too, a pretty interesting forgotten weapons video about them is available!

The Uppercut is a fictional converted revolver that fires .45-70 rifle rounds instead of the pistol cartridges. The weapon in the video is probably as close as it gets to that firepower. The real-world parent of the Caldwell Conversion would be the Colt Open-Top revolver from 1871, which was based on the trend at that time to convert cap'n'ball guns to load cartridges, but was actually built from scratch rather than a conversion. The Caldwell Conversion in the game is a fully invented gun that we assume could handle the strong force from the larger caliber rifle round when properly reinforced.
