Has anybody tried the Lehigh defense Xtreme penetrator or Xtreme defense ammo? Underwood is loading these funny looking solid copper bullets as well.
I've seen some neat videos online of gel test with this stuff on reputable YouTube channels like ammo Quest. This stuff is an incredible performer in ballistic gel, but how much of this technology is simply an exploitation of ballistic gel and not a real world Improvement in regards to bullet performance in actual flesh, tissue, bone....Etc?
While it appears that this stuff makes a mess out of gel blocks even with diminutive rounds such as 32 ACP or 380 acp, I simply have a hard time believing it would do the same to actual Flesh at those velocities. I would really like to see some testing of this stuff on actual animal flesh. Somehow I got a feeling that these blocks that are almost split in half by their 357 Magnum rounds would turn into simply a decent wound Channel in actual Flesh, and the decent wound channels created by 380 or 32 would be no different than the pin-hole type wounds that are created by your typical flat tip rounds.
I could be wrong, but I will not be swapping out my gold dots anytime soon until further real world testing is done.
