Special thanks to JohnKSa for supplying the ammunition
Cartridge : Remington 180gr JHP (part # R10MM4)
Firearm : Colt Delta Elite with 5" barrel length
Block calibration : All depths corrected (From 12.5cm @ 581 ft/sec)
Shot 1 - Impacted at 1065 ft/sec, expanded to 0.669" average diameter and penetrated to 14.1" plus. The 'plus' is because the bullet exited the back of the block and penetrated ~ 4" into the polyester bullet arresting box. The bullets actual penetration should be well over 15".
Shot 2 - Impacted at 1124 ft/sec, expanded to 0.647" average diameter and penetrated to 12.7".
Shot 3 - Impacted at unknown velocity (chronograph malfunction), expanded to 0.664" average diameter and penetrated to 13.1".
