Cut shell testing results
« on: August 07, 2011, 10:48:33 PM »
I made up a test wall 2x4 with 1/2" sheetrock, one with out insulation and one with fiberglass insulation.
The results were about the same.
The sheetrock was 20' away and the back target was 10' behind the sheetrock.

Not a armor piercing but like a slug until it goes through two layers of sheetrock then it's like birdshot.
It would be safer then a slug if you were concerned about over penetration.
