    It was comical until I remember that those people can vote, too.

    Please say that some people are trying to drop logic bombs on that nonsense.

    I can explain it to you. I can’t understand it for you.

    The balloon is full of liquid, looks like yellow paint, so it's not that weird that it fragments the round. But Matt Guest noticed that when they hit a little high on the gelatin block, at least half the fragments (I'm sorry, "trocar points") just go shooting off at a 45-degree-angle toward the ceiling. Whoops.
    Not my thing. I have enough trouble killing paper with FMJ.

    The water balloon is identical in density to the cranial vault of everyone "drooling" to buy the R.I.P. ammo as this entry suggests, so please don't downplay the relevance of the water balloon testing protocol: http://thelibertydigest.com/2014/01/...ners-drooling/

    Funny thing is, 52gr bullet at 2100fps is still more "shockwave" than a 5.7 can generate.

    Fan boyz really gnash teeth and rend garments when you bad mouth the 5.7.
