King! I just wanted to mention “Shell Shock” ammo. It uses stainless steel cases that can be reloaded over 30 times!!! I know you reload and you maybe familiar with these stainless cases. I just wanted to inform you in case you didn’t know.

Indeed! I've done some reviews on ammo using those cases. Seems to be pretty legit.

Interesting results! Definitely a lot better than I would have expected. Would you choose this over RMA 1155?

@BuffRANGE

If the price were the same, I would take this design over the 1155. Even at probably $50-60 more than the 1155, I'd take this as well. Over the 1165, that will have to be tested..

@@BuffRANGE Fair enough, I think the real attractive part about the 1155 is that you can pretty much get two of them for the price of one of these

@@Grooove_e indeed. And by price I meant when TA runs those 40-50% off sales. This is a solid $175-200 plate. A $350 is a little much.

Is it worth the price jump from their non-NIJ certified lvl4?

Hey buff I’m wondering if as a ‘over the counter’ way to ‘defeat’ level 4 would be a 12 gauge magnum slug perhaps 1 1/4 oz or heavier or better yet a brenneke black magic? I want to know if on stand alone level 4 they would go deeper than 44mm…. Also I wonder how deep backface would be on steel 3+ armor? What do you think

only WHO TEE HOO on KZread has ever tested level 4 against a 12 gauge magnum slug like a brenneke and the backface was insane Appeared to be nearly two inches however against calibrated FBI clay would it be over 44 limit

Do you think basic m855 green tip in 22 creedmoor would have the construction to beat lvl4 ceramic, lvl3+ ceramic, or lvl3 steel plates using your KAK 18" upper. My guess is lvl4 no, lvl3+ maybe (brand dependant), lvl3 steel yes. Also thanks for all the data over the years, you're channel is truely invaluable for ballistic info

@BuffRANGE

Ай бұрын

@@brendenblair3706 it’s confusing because not only is that a performance standard, It’s also generally used for a shape, size and cut standard. As far as performance goes, you’re right a sapi plate is effectively a level three whereas an ESAPI is a level 4+ because it has a lot higher performance requirement than level four. Has to stop M2AP 3 hits with one at 3000 fps :)
