A direct hit would be devastating. It's 6k fps. It'll go through your whole house, vaporizing shiit on it's way. It's not a home defense round. A direct hit, at "not long range" is exactly why it's here. And it is devastating.

To see what happens on impact?
98Z5V Posted July 27, 2019 Report Posted July 27, 2019 (edited) There's nothing left of it. It vaporizes. Everything. Edited July 27, 2019 by 98Z5V

I've been waiting for a response for 3 days. I wish they would hurry.

Robocop1051 Posted July 27, 2019 Report Posted July 27, 2019 The 500Blk 185gr Aluminum round is only projected to travel around 4200 fps.... Lol, only??? That's still over 7200 ft lbs of energy!! There's not much that comes close to that kind of power. The weight + material + velocity + shape/diameter = a short range dispersion of massive energy The hollow aluminum will fragment on impact and have very low penetration, BUT..... The energy will likely travel MUCH further, causing hydro-static shock possibly 10x the distance of the penetration. This would literally be an explosion of flesh, or similar materials.

You went to 185gr?!!? That's fuckin' NUTS!!!
