    Black Hills 5.56 62 Gr. Dual Performance

    Announced back in January during SHOT it flew under the radar but now Im starting to see this stuff in stock at various dealers so I was curious if people had any experience with the round yet.

    "Our Dual Performance™ line features a monolithic machined copper projectile that immediately begins expansion upon impact forming a temporary cavity exceeding the capability of conventional bullets. Once the large primary cavity is created, the petals release from the body of the projectile to cut separate wound tracks through the stressed tissue. The body of the bullet, still retaining a substantial percentage of its original weight but now free from the unnecessary drag, penetrates deeply to ensure maximum effect on the target."
    Looks to be a Lehigh Defense Controlled Chaos design which I did not care for when I first heard about it 5 years ago, machined brass + lightweight 45gr gimmick bullets, no thanks. However Ill take notice if Black Hills is involved and they made the switch to all copper. Gel shots look M855A1 like without the steel penetrator or Mk318 like with the solid copper shank going deep. May be worth taking a look if it can offer better accuracy over Mk318 or actually having a consistent supply over A1.
