If we can get past all of the BS from the guys who have not used this technology, and truly know nothing about it, I think I can explain how the technology works, and perhaps some will see it has real utility in some applications. Lets get some facts on the table upfront.....


1. I do not advocate gut shooting an animal, it is not necessary. I will never advocate this.

2. There are two schools of thought concerning terminal ballistics in a hunting environment. The first is "Don't over penetrate, use all of energy of the projectile to cause tissue damage." The second school of thought is, "Make sure you have a large exit wound so the blood trail is easy to track." Although both methods will kill game, we know that the first method is more efficient and will kill quicker, all other criteria being equal. We know this from Fackler's research, and from live tissue tests and other data collected. I much prefer an animal to fall in his tracks, I know right where to find him, especially on dangerous game. No one wants to follow a blood trail into tall grass or dense brush looking for a wounded brown bear, no matter how good the 'blood trail' is........Deleted by CalHunter...

3. DRT bullets are not the same technology as 'Extreme Shok' ammo. The cores are different and the jackets are different.



The lead bullet engineer has several tools at his disposal when designing a bullet for a specific application......

A. Jacket thickness and shape

B. Percent alloy of lead and antimony (more antimony = harder core)

C. Bonding of core to jacket.

D. Tip design, (hollow point, lead point, polymer tipped)


The DRT engineer has several additional tools that effect bullet performance in a profound way.....

A. Core compression

B. Percent binder added to the tungsten

C. The size and shape of the tungsten particle
