Member chucky2 sent a full box of these to put them to the tests!! Thanks for sending these ${$default_cool_smiley}$

I will chronograph 2-3 in 4.75" and 6" barrels, send one to The Shadow for a pull-down and send however many Chopinbloc wants for gel/armor/meat/etc... testing he wants. Should be interesting!

Looking forward to the testing. 1700 FPS! ${$default_shocked_smiley}$

Cool looking to see the numbers!

Looking forward to it.

I will definitely be following this one! Is anyone set-up to test stability at moderate (75-100 yard) ranges? I always wonder about that with light for caliber projectiles.

Heading out this morning for a long overdue Shootfest to run these and some others.

Thanks for testing these out for us All! Man had I known you were going to share the Post-It I'd have written a little neater! ${$default_cheesy_smiley}$ Bah, who am I kidding...that's about as neat as this computer geek can write haha...

Nothing beats my mess! ${$default_shocked_smiley}$

In the past Kevin put out some actual results in pistols they test with. I didn't see anything for these on his site ${$default_huh_smiley}$

If they are based off the Glock 4.6" barrel, they fall short.

EAA Limited Pro 4.75" barrel 1607, 1651, 1660. Average 1639.33 FPS/ 685 LBS
EAA Super Match 6" barrel 1686, 1714, 1716. Average 1705.4 FPS/ 743 LBS

I think I will pass the results by Kevin if he's reachable.

Don't forget t he solid copper bullets are longer, and he may not be able to stuff as much powder in those cases.

I shot some of into a ballistic material we had laying around. These did not penetrate (neither did a .223), but they felt every bit of full power 10mm ammo in my Glock.

True! It will be interesting to see if the pull-down shows Lovex and if it's a compressed loading.

The info I got from somewhere showed Silhouette.

Looking forward to it. Thanks for the chrono information!

The_Shadow · November 17 2016 04:05:54 PM MST

The last one was loaded with Silhouette|

That one wasn't compressed was it?

The_Shadow · November 17 2016 05:24:41 PM MST

It was probably close or touching the base of the bullet...nothing like that Power Pistol loading from Buffalo Bore! ${$default_roll_eyes_smiley}$

Underwoods rep though is that they meet what's on the box (and in many cases exceed it). If these are hitting those speeds then IMHO, they shouldn't say 1700 on the box. If the 4.75 average is 1640 then 1650 would be a more appropriate number.
