That's the problem with Russian ammo. Crazy Ivan changes projectiles any time he wants. That said, I got expansion with the 154 gr also. I'd say that if you're thinking of putting some away for SHTF, shoot it through some water jugs and if the recovered bullet is expanded and weighs more than half the starting weight, you're probably good to go.

It looks as though the 9mm spun its nose off...I was wondering how they would hold up.

The thing that I was concerned with was the rifling twist direction, as it relates to the bullet nose design...

Well, that and that everything they claim is a steaming pile of bovine excrement. The physics just aren't there for any mechanism other than expansion to cause significantly greater wounding at pistol velocity. I'm sticking with my Gold Dots.

  Did the POTUS confiscate all of your pistols?  ;D

Lol. I've been focusing on rifles lately

Cool test, thanks for doing it! 

Haven't seen M855A1 available commercially. 

Performance in gel similar to Lehigh's controlled chaos or Federal's MK318 Mod 0....
