The Armies and Works that you hold Dear,
Are to him but the Playthings of the Moment,
To be turned over with the Flick of a Finger,
And the Turning of a Page"

This is a copper framentation round, not anything that would do MD.

I actually saw that and immediately thought of the one wheeled cycle in Atlantis (or Splynn, not sure which).

They are hyping the velocity and the fact that in penetrates bulky clothing and...wait for it...sheetrock...oooh. Not a MD capable round. In order to do MD, by my calculations, a round would have to achieve in excess of 25mm of penetration in rolled homogenous armor equivalent (RHAe)... I have the calcs on my computer, I can post them later.

And yeah, a round that's designed to penetrate thick clothing and split for maximum tissue damage is so far from an MD weapon it's ridiculous. If it's not packing Rocket Propelled Grenade level devastation, it's likely not approaching MD.

Agreed, MD it is not. Lethal however it is.
