Does it perform to the same level as far as velocity, expansion, and/or penetration? Can you patent a projectile?

Yes and I have, it's an epic insane procedure designed by patent attorneys to bilk you out of tens of thousands of dollars.


And yes I had to take them to court. Fun fact since the assholes at VG didn't spend 20 years testing, and refining the designs they just did a change to avoid violating my patent. That changed reduced how well the bullet would perform. Had they actually done the work they would have known that.

The issue with this round while it meets penetration depths, those petals and disruptions happen very early and don't extend past the 4-6" mark, leaving only a .22 cal base to to do the work to depths.
