There are several things.  They shoot R-L which is not the industry standard.  There is minimal permanent crush cavity.  Most fragments only penetrate 5".  As Double J pointed out what happens when it is fired into several layers of clothing?  I think there will be even less penetration. 
What's the most dangerous thing said in the US Navy? -- A Chief Petty Officer saying "Watch this s$%^!!"

"I can imagine no more rewarding a career. And any man who may be asked in this century what he did to make his life worthwhile, I think can respond with a good deal of pride and satisfaction: 'I served in the United States Navy.'"

I want my rounds to stay together as much as possible without massive fragmentation.  If I want stuff to scatter I will use a shotgun.   :twocents:

Looks pretty cool. Lehigh has been making rifle and pistol bullets a lot like this one for about 10 years.

I have some of the Lehigh Maximum Expansion bullets for a couple sub sonic guns. I will be putting them to work hunting this coming year.

I use multiple rounds and stagger them in my magazine already. One for penetration and one for kinetic energy effectiveness. You just don't know what you will face if ever. I like this round. Full metal jacket, one hollow point and then this round. Then repeat. Nice. Kind of like "don't put all you eggs in one basket."  ;)

I carry .357 Sig and use only FMJ and I have no doubt I can get a CNS disconnect.

This is a gimmick and a waste of money :twocents:

I'm listening. And I noticed that comment. But like in summer heat where there is not that much apparel worn wouldn't all that copper spreading across the target be immediately heart stopping?


*** added later ***

I know what you are saying. I'm pretty confident with my 45 ACP no matter what I have in it. And right now I only have Federal 185 JHP Personal Defense rounds in it. It's my mini I have staggered.

I'm more interested in turning off the data to the muscles than stopping the heart.

Anyway......GO HAWKS!!!
