I realize that it's a good excuse to shoot stuff, but I can already predict the results of such a test (ie; both rounds penetrate 2x4, and depending on what type & thickness of plate, both rounds will perform identically on the steel plate). I personally would be more impressed with a water penetration test, like the box 'o truth guys did (Box 'O Truth; Water vs. Rifle Rounds, Water Box #2, Water Box #1 (pistol rounds)). This will show you a more "real-world" simulation of penetration capabilities of each round, more-so than 2x4's and steel plates. Just my 2 cents, don't let me stop you from ventilating those 2x4'sgunnoob said:I'm testing it once and for all guys. American Eagle vs Czech M43. 2x4 and steel plate penetrations. I'll report back with pics.
