The Army's new M855A1 62 gr EPR fired from 20" AR-15 into Spartan 3610 GL level III+ composite plate. Care to make a prediction?

Interesting result! BTW, where did you find M855A1?

I really dig your channel...Keep up the good work!

I lost. Though, only to a degree. I voted it would penetrate the plate and it didn't in a technical sense. But that is enough BFD to shatter one's sternum.

That A1 is moving SO DAMN FAST....that's M193 velocity at 3261fps from a 20"!!!

I see why they crimp the primers so well....they have to. I would love to see the pressure curve on that ammo.....

Thanks again, Andrew! Great job!
