Finally got a chance to try out the ASYM 70g TSX rounds, BCM and Aimpoint on something other than water bottles this weekend. At end of a business trip to Dallas, got out to hunt some hogs and see for myself how the round performs. Went out here: http://www.bouldertexotics.com/. They were...

Thought I could add something here as requested for actual training and courses of fire. I am a federal uniformed police officer and as such am required to qualify four times a year with our sidearm (Glock 22, .40). We also carry the MP5 (10mm, as a lot of our work is in a city environment...

NJ Very lucky in that I get to go to a few different ranges for work, training and qualifying. Army post at West Point, NY has a terrific 300m range with pop up targets that Army uses for it's rifle qual course. Sorry don't have pics available but it is a great place to shoot. Most often...

SD, I think you may be right on the 300 black transition. Hard to argue with the terminal results of that round in an LE confrontation. Seems to be easier to mainstraim than some of the "boutique" rounds like the 6.8 (another round that shows tremedous terminal ballistics). If you told...

5.56 rounds in that shootout were nothing like barrier blind loads used today. Not to discredit you but you are using data from 1986? That incident prompted the FBI to change their way of thinking and rounds must now pass their testing to be considered ready for duty. Current FBI, and many...

Going to be lots of glass coming back at you, especially from side windows. On the up side, the side glass will be gone after first shot, allowing you clean follow-up shots. If out through windshield, try to go low through windshield as you will completely obscure your own vision if you...

OP, when I have questions like this I simply look to the end-users that post here and other places to see what they have found with actual experience. Guys that shoot people in the face for a living and have their lives depending on the effectiveness of their weapons/ammo have opinions that...

Flintknapper, Linked to you from another site and after reading just a few of your posts, I joined THR and have just spent the better portion of my "free" time this week reading through this thread and I am hooked. I have become very familiar with the AR platform as it is a big part of...
