‘The Last Round You’ll Ever Need’: The Awesome New Bullet Billed as a ‘One-Shot Manstopper’
The Blaze ^ | 1/27/14 | Elizabeth Kreft

Gun owners who prefer a hollow point design to a full metal jacket might have found a new favorite.

G2 Research (G2R) released it’s new Radically Invasive Projectile (R.I.P.) this month, hoping to “take the civilian and law enforcement markets by storm, and truly become the last round you’ll ever need.”

G2R, based in Winder, Ga., highlights that the bullet points are manufactured with trocar angles — or simply put, edges with three angles reaching one point — to “penetrate the dermis layer more efficiently.”

The G2R website explains the R.I.P. acts like a full metal jacket when it impacts solid objects: “It is capable of going through barriers such as sheet rock, plywood, sheet metal or glass and still performs its original intent. The bullet shreds through solid objects and only then, expands its energy.”

A trauma center surgeon's nightmare. I'm glad a lot of this *specialty ammo* wasn't around in '74 when I was robbed and shot.

It is better to give than to receive.

Having once been on the receiving end, I’d agree 100%.

Wouldn’t even need to be tungsten.

I would think a length of “drill rod” would work well too, and be much easier to acquire/machine.
