    I have researched and looked into it as much as I can. So now i am calling the professionals, aka :ingo: So here is a chance for all of you that want to try out the ballistics and bullet penetration of something different! They say that this ammo can go through hard surfaces like; car doors, brick walls, ect. BUT when it comes into a soft tissue it will fragment and not over penetrate.

    If you want links to some RBCD ammo

    If anyone would get some actual range reports or anything having experience with this ammo, post it!!

    Curiosity on this is killing me!! Anyone know anything about this ammo?

    LeMas/RBCD Ammunition Analysis - M4Carbine.net Forums

    The summary:
    Congress appropriated $1,050,000.00 in the FY03 budget for the government to conduct a comprehensive study of LeMas “BMT” ammunition and evaluate the remarkable claims made by LeMas. A 3 year, multi-agency testing effort was conducted and the results compiled and documented. The long awaited USSOCOM/ARDEC report on LeMas ammo was made available for distribution to authorized organizations in August of 2007. Virtually every single claim made by Mr. Bulmer and Mr. Hamilton regarding LeMas bullet design, manufacture, construction methodology and composition, pyrophoric and thermodynamic properties, behavior in tissue simulant, intermediate barrier capability, terminal performance in tissue were all determined to be FALSE.

    Thanks Shooter great find, so i am guessing that there is nothing all that "GREAT" and definitely not "BLENDED METAL" with the RBCD ammo! So got me all excited for nothing....

    This ammo is in the category of low mass, high velocity variety. Since muzzle energy varies linearly with mass and quadratically with velocity, this ammo attempts to up the energy without increasing pressure over safe limits.

    Like many complicated things, this one view is not the whole story.

    Thank you kindly. This buckeye appreciates the opportunity.

    I run several searchbots (search rotots) on subjects that where I have done research I hope others find useful. RBCD popped up your forum.
