Check out this new home defense ammo! It looks vicious!



Be sure to check out the watermelon at around 1:17

Got to like that...That said, I see lawyers with hardon's filing lawsuits. I would rename the rd to something like worlds best Squirrel killer.

Difference between this and "EXTREME SHOCK" ammo?

1. Blocks of jell look pretty small.

2. No inch scale for comparison

3. Watermelon could be as small as a grapefruit looks no larger than a basketball.

I'm basing this mostly on the apparent size of the 9mm bullet.

Price?

Personally I like "In The Red" exploding target mix in the large grain size. You can fill a hollow point or "hollowed" point bullet with it and it will withstand being fired while exploding on impact.

Of course I'm uneasy about anything new. But I'll try a box whenever they come out with 45acp or 12 gauge.

I'll wait for independent testing.

But, marketing hype is one thing, they also state the following...

Weight 96gr
Velocity 1265fps
“muzzle energy” “490″ recently changed to "370"

They don’t say 490/370 what... Do we assume foot-pounds, joules?

Joules
96gr=.006221 kg
1265 ft/s=385.572 m/s

KE=.5 * m * v^2
462.4 J

Using the standard formula for kinetic energy, 96 grains at 1265 fps yields just 341 ft/lbs.

Anyway you measure it... Anyone up for a False Claims suit?
