Robocop1051 Posted July 27, 2019 Report Share 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.

That's the one I've got. You went to 185gr?!!? That's fuckin' NUTS!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
