No. What it would do is permit a comparison of lead-core FMJ performance from all three calibers.


I dunno. Has it? Cool

Stan:

And I will let it go down the same path as the other five or six identical threads.

I can do the testing but you design the test with one caveat. It will have defined standards and if any of the cartridges fail any of the tests, it will be considered as FAILING that test.

Start with accuracy since it is directly related to lethality. 50 % at 500 meters on an E-Sil is the normal standard. I don't have a 500 yard line but do have a 300 and 600. I will reduce a target to 300 for this test.

Will use a JP upper for the Grendel and a AR-10 and M-4 with decent barrels for the US service ball. I will use the same optic for all rifles. Nightforce 10X with a two minute dot.

Lets see your test and standards.
