Hey folks,
Here is the result of today's rifle vs pistol on 1/4" steel. This hunk of metal was taken from an old fireplace insert.
7.62x51, 24" barrel, 150gr, 50 yards
5.56x45, 16" barrel, 55 gr, 50 yards
.38 Special, 2.5" barrel, 130 gr, 10 yards
.357 Mag, 2.5" barrel, 158 gr, 10 yards
Really shows the difference between "cover" and "concealment" when facing different firearm platforms.
As the saying goes: a pistol is so you can fight your way to a rifle.
Safe Shooting.
