Yep, I would like to give this a try/test.

Interesting. I wonder if there will be issues with it not penetrating deep enough to stop some threats though. That would be my concern.

I wonder the same thing. Though with follow up shot(s) that may not be as much an issue.
I just see the applications for this ammo being used. For example a small apartment in an apartment complex or a home where the neighbors home might be fairly close. Close enough that FMJ's, hollow-points, even the Critical and or Duty type ammo could cause damage or worse.

By no means am I arguing with you. Just thinking this outloud and online :grin:

The link is no longer working, does anyone have more up to date information?


I am very interested in "barrier sensitive" ammunition, the opposite of barrier blind. My reason is, as the poster above me surmised, I live in a condo  I am very concerned with wall penetration. For that reason my carry pistol is a 380 and I use ARX ammunition.


I am interested in other options in barrier sensitive ammunition.

I never got around to building a couple of test walls with 2X4s & drywall.  I always wanted to test my shotgun with different shot #s.  So I'm still keeping #5 Pheasant loads with the gun.
