SHOT Show Coverage

CORBON is now making a DPX load in .32 ACP.  The new load pushes the 60 grain, all-copper DPX bullet at 1050 fps (measured from a 2.5″ barrel.)  According to CORBON, “…[the DPX bullet] when fired into 10% ballistic gelatin with a 4 layer denim barrier shows penetration at 9 inches and consistent recovered diameters of .60 inches.”

While not my first choice for self-defense, it sure does beat a harsh word for stopping an attacker.  If CORBON is getting consistant expansion through the denim barrier, I am impressed.

Of course, this does lend further credibility to my musings last month that the .32 is the new .380.

Thanks to the Tactical Wire for the tip on the new load.
