Re: New bullet. Check website, watch videos. Discuss.
its been done adnausium on you tube , we pretty much know that it deploys its trocars in a radial pattern over a wide area....The criticism here had been it wont penetrate, its not effective, ect.... I shot barriers with it and similar jacketed bullets , the issue if its a true car door is irrelevan...

Re: New bullet. Check website, watch videos. Discuss.
the jeans represent interior upholstery and/or padding on the door panel , and , the board is similar to a interior door panel backing , the metal is the skin and or internal braces. I don't understand what you want me to do, the RIP performed in a manner in which you want a bullet to when encounter...

Re: New bullet. Check website, watch videos. Discuss.
so, a person standing outside your passenger window shooting at you. would be a good example of this setup........so, you think adding a layer of clothing on the water jug (simulating a clothed person) would keep the jackets on the bullets?

Re: New bullet. Check website, watch videos. Discuss.
so your saying it would be easier for the XTP and the Golden saber to perform as well as the RIP if it was arrainged the other way?...I'm wondering how do you get the bad guy to stand on the "Correct" side of the door?

Re: New bullet. Check website, watch videos. Discuss.
I'm not sure...I think the FBI calls jacket separation a fail? so I can only speak to the XTP and Golden sab as a possible fail... it was sort of a "Car Door" mock up...similar material at similar spacing with a hydraulic target (person) at a similar distance behind it. looks like if you have a JHP,...

Re: New bullet. Check website, watch videos. Discuss.
seems a little excessive for squirrels and maybe a little under powered for elk. So, probably not the last round I would ever need. that being said.
