Any update on this? Have you tested any solid copper barrier blind rounds at the range for accuracy?
I haven't even been home since I posted that. Nor will I for another week.

Out of my Glock 26, the Xtreme Penetrators are no different than anything else I've shot at 10 yards or less. I still need work on pistol shooting to get any groups worth noting so I can't really comment on accuracy.
On my 9mm carbine, I get dime sized groups with a red dot supported with my elbows on a table at 25 yards.
