Hello Twisted1, yea it's me The_Shadow Ha ha ha ha :D
Seeing how the supply situation is in shambles, we are seeing that many things are being substituted to fill the needs. This has included, bullets, powders and primers, various other items.

The question is when will things get back to a more normal situation.... ???

Those look like the Zombunition rounds I have. They were sold from Selway Ammo some time ago.

I picked up two boxes yesterday of what I think are the XTP version.

With the price of these things I am going to reserve them for carry.

Edit: Upon closer inspection, I think the ones I got are the newer bullet. They do look a lot like an XTP. Does anyone have an idea what they are?

Edit II: I just sent Tim Sundles an email inquiring about the new bullets.

Did we gel test the Zero's?

The PBR 180gr is a Zero and about the same speed. The video is in the sheet but should I put a column for bullet type?

That sounds like a good idea if you have the time.

I heard back from Tim Sundles. He didn't give me the make of the new bullets but he did tell me to expect 15 inches of penetration in 10% ordnance gel.

He also said with the variables in living tissue and bone to expect anywhere from 12 to 16 inches penetration with this load.
