I had some of this ‘gifted’ to me by a friend when he was with a department in another town. Had been tried and found actually that in real-world it didn’t have the penetration they wanted, didn’t do the soft tissue damage expected, and it was notably less accurate. They went with something else & the remainder got “dispersed” to friends. I used it up just running USMC “box” drills, etc. And wouldn’t spend $$ to buy it on my own.

Thank you Herschel for posting this. I always enjoy Paul Harrell’s quirky test regimen. His meat target is classic.
I would love to see this compared to a Hornady V-Max projectile (which is 60-grain in .223). I suppose I will just have to set up my own meat targets when the weather breaks above freezing.

Ammo is a construct of the white male capitalist pig patriarchy and goes against the people’s unity.
Bullets will be remade in the shape of little potpurri scented hearts and the ballistics will be reduced to even lower than a well thrown rock.
All comrades of the unity collective will love each other and put down their weapons by order from esteemed CPUSA party member comrade kommissar Uncle Joe our dear papa.
