Quote: Dogfish said: One projectile currently under development by Lehigh bullets, a custom bullet mfg, is an 86 grain aluminum hollowpoint. These exit at about 3,100 fps for 1,800 foot pounds of energy, but with the right powder you could push that upwards of 3,500 fps. The upside to this bullet is that it dumps its energy with 6 inches or less. CQB anyone? Foot pounds energy (fpe) on these rounds are between 1,800-2,400. The standard 5.56x45 SS109 62 grain load develops just 1,200 fpe.
I'd hate to see the business end go "flash".
sounds perfect for CQB <---- "Jihad this!"
