If a 230 grain 10mm won't take a violent meth head out, what in sam hell will?

Be sure to read the reviews.

to me its kind of a gimmick round.

i should really just shut up since i havent shot any of them but from what comparisons ive read elsewhere you are better served by a solid single heavyweight JHP.

quote:
230gr Equalizer @ 1040fps - 11.0" and 17.0" / .62" and .40"


the JHP doesnt penetrate to a foot in gel. the ball does but it really aint that big.

AGREED i dont wanna be shot with it! sorry not tryin to piss on the thread... the reviews ARE funny! especially how it cuts off on the one talking about how it "stopped a pissed off russian..."

although this is marketed very skillfully, what you end up with is two projectiles that dont penetrate as well as a single JHP (because physics dictate the two projectiles will split the power). just get a 180 grain JHP from double tap or buffalo bore and you will be better protected than any other round youll find available commercially. seriously, i cannot imagine any meth-head being able to withstand a solid hit from 180 grain 10mm in excess of 1200 fps and both BB and DT exceed that mark with room to spare (DT @ 1300 fps, BB @ 1350 fps).

This was mainly a joke but it is kinda fun to think about I guess. I'm sure penetration would really lack here, maybe even failing FBI minimum standards
