Box O' Truth #23 - ExtremeShock™ Ammo

It
blew up the jug and then bounced off the
"wall".
Then
we tried a Fang Face round.
It also blew up the water jug and pieces
of it stuck in the face of the "wall".
How
about a test using water?
We drug out the Waterbox O' Truth and bought
a bunch of water jugs.
We added some material in front, cotton
towel and blue jeans to simulate clothing.
DocGKR, a recognized expert, once told me,
"Be aware that water generally reveals
the maximum upset which can occur to a projectile
in soft tissue -your actual result in living
tissue may be somewhat less. You can also
use the water testing to get a rough estimate
of bullet penetration depth in soft tissue--bullets
penetrate approximately 1.6 to 2 times as
much in water as in soft tissue".
So, we'll look at penetration using those
standards.
First
a round of Ranger SXT.
It
penetrated 3 jugs, or approximately 10 inches
of ballistic gelatin.
