200 gr subsonic REAPR fired from 8" 1:7" AR into calibrated 10% ordnance gelatin, with and without four layers of denim.
BB calibration: 597.3 fps, 3.6"
The sun was not co-operating so impact velocity was not recorded on either shot. I intend to test this some more but I only have a few so I didn't want to "waste" any on just a velocity.
On the denim shot, the projectile passed completely through the 14" gelatin block and six water jugs. The projectile was not recovered.
On the bare gelatin shot, the bullet passed through the 14" gel block and stopped before entering the first water jug. It measured 0.972" x 0.623" and weighed 199.3 gr.
Bear in mind that this is a subsonic load intended for discrete hog hunting so as not to spook cattle. It is not intended for defense.
