The fragmenting copper core is interesting. From a purely hypothetical standpoint, and understanding potential liabilities if a person were to load their own defense ammunition, would think this be a good or bad round?
Its core is fragmenting copper. So based on the ballistic gel images on the link, it seems like it would transfer all of its energy to tissue fast and create a significant wound cavity. Also, due to fragmentation, would you suspect it wouldn't suffer as much from over-penetration through drywall and plywood?
Or, would you suspect in this application, the end result would be a so-so round like Glaser Safety Slugs?
