    Not in stock.
    We could isolate Russia totally from the world and maybe they could apply for membership after 2000 years.

    No hits on AmmoSeek.com and the LGS where I work has not been able to find it either...

    Despite 2 cannelures, the 9mm hydra-shok deep repeatedly lost its jacket after going through 16ga sheet metal into clear gel:

    (sheet metal test begins around 6:30)




    Note: This test was clear gel, not ordnance gel. And the FBI uses 2 sheets of 20 gauge (0.8mm) steel spaced 3.5" apart vs this guntuber's single sheet of 16 gauge (1.4mm) steel.

    Whew, I was starting to think I was the only one using ball ammo in my .380 & .32. While I'd love to have both, if I can only have one I'll always take penetration.

    On this forum, plenty of folks are carrying wadcutters in their .38s.

    But watch out .32 will get you kilt in da streetz!

    Seems like it did not affect penetration (understanding clear jell is not any kind of realistic indicator of terminal performance).

    Good timing—looks like they have stopped most non-case sales (of all products) for a few days to catch up on orders.
    Look forward to some tests!
