I am not sure where this thread belongs, so if it needs to be moved please do.
I know kevlar is great at stopping large caliber pistols cartridges such as 9mm 357 mag 45 acp even some 44 mag ratings out there. Out of curiosity, I was looking at plate armor other day. These things are rated to stop even AP 30/06, and designed to be worn under kevlar vest. My questions is does plate have issues with stopping small fast calibers? kevlar cant stand things such as 7.62x25 and 5.7 rounds. does plate have this same drawback? This question is purely educational, with no reason for self defense or carry options. I am just curious
