The Box O' Truth #6 - Ballistic Resistant Glass Gets Tested - Page 4

It blew a hole about 4 inches by 6 inches through the glass.

To be honest, we felt that the glass had been compromised somewhat by this time due to cracks made by the 12 gauge slug.

But it wouldn't have made any difference.

Lessons learned:
1. Shooting stuff is fun.

2. Bullet resistant Polycast is bullet resistant. For some bullets. Not so for others.

3. Handguns are handguns and rifles are rifles. Once again, enough said.

4. Shotgun slugs are awesome. Tman and I discussed how we are continuing to gain respect for the 12 gauge slug.

We don't want to over-learn any lessons. That doesn't mean that it is the best defense load, but it sure seems to be a tough penetrator.

Thanks to Pighelmet for the material and thanks to Tman for the photo work.
