INDEPENDENT VERIFICATION

There have been a few posts written in this forum that have used chronographs to show how independent tests have given velocity results way short of the factory velocity claims by DT. It is therefore my concern, as an Officer whom carries DT ammo in my duty weapon, that DT ammo likewise is verified independently for expansion and penetration. Factory gelatin claims need to be verified and independently tested. Unfortunately, on my pay I do not have the resources to conduct such tests. I'm hoping that someone who has the means, will conduct said tests. Thank you.

It is violent in appearance but not in essence" (Hunt 88).
