 Smoking! Out of the EAA Elite Limited 4.75" barrel 1700, 1715, 1724. Average = 1713 FPS/ 815 LBS  :o

Shot at Plywood followed by Drywall. I actually think it was a win because neither type of material made it fragment (watch the impact on the rear bank). Now if it hit something hard like a bone  :o

Milo actually wants me to do the Pineapple! Next time...

So unlike the DRT rounds:



Where the composite material totally exploded early, I think these may actually go in a little. The gel test will be the most interesting of these!

It sounds like it is extremely hot from the video.

Are there any pressure signs?

 These and the 140's are rather pleasant to shoot plus not as loud. You really should pick up a box of each and try them. Let me get some brass measurements and pictures. I didn't see anything when I picked them up.

I have to wonder if these are a copper jacket with the compressed powdered copper inside. 
There are some frangibles that are completely compressed powdered copper or tungsten/copper formations.  I don't think the Tungsten is used for rifled use as that may be harsh on rifling.   However they are used in matrix BB's for shotgun with smooth bores.

Varmint rifle rounds are made similar to those DRT with the compressed pellet inside the thin copper jacket, which explodes as the varmints are struck, with pieces parts flying in many directions.  One showing a grape being hit.
Barnes has some videos but they require downloading http://www.barnesbullets.com/information/high-speed-video/

Those look like any 10mm fired brass I have shot.

Very nice.
