Not a "warhead". A machine turned chunk of solid brass. Just a simple necking down of a 20mm case. You could do the same with a 40mm case, or a four inch naval shell. But who would be fool enough to put something like that to their shoulder.
My new EDC. Subcompact model doesn't print super badly if I don't move much at all. Had a couple FTFs first time at the range. Friend said I was limp-wristing it. I'd give him the finger if it weren't for the arm cast.
Ok. Here is a serious question. If the 40 pound barrel and action is mounted on a 70 Lb stock secured to a 100 lb lead sled how many 100's of foot pounds can you expect in the way of felt recoil to your body. How far will the scope drive drive into your face, and who will have the balls to pull the trigger a second time ? Only a fool would create a wildcat cartridge like this. It is not practical ! It's actually stupid !
Not practical to purchase and fire effectively. I'll stay put with my .22 mag handgun and rifle (with scope), thankyou. No more or less than what I need. More cost effective and available rounds to chamber and fire before reloading, less recoil,
less noise, and more painful if carefully placed in the face, neck, hands, feet,
and groin.
My shoulder hurts just looking at that motherfucker... Ouchy!
You absolutely would not have a shoulder left after shooting that little guy.
Shit, I just bought one in a Derringer... lolz
You're a mad man...
OK, stupid me. Who or what gun, cannon, anti-aircraft is this shot out of and is is currently available for purchase?
I appreciate that they refer to the rounds as “warhead”. 👍🏿👍🏿

Thanks, Who is the manufacturer of the gun and what is it called.

At that size, I think it's an anti-vehicle round!
20k psi sounds WAY too low. That’s like weak 9mm pressures.
Yeah I'm fucking confused. This thing sounds like some fucking black magic bullshit.
60 bucks a round. 15k.rifle.
If lucky.
To destroy vehicles at that range, $60 a pop is a steal.
When every shot counts
Nothing annoys me more than mixing up metric and standard numbers in specs.
But damn, supersonic at 5400 meters? No wonder they call it a warhead.

I need this
When can my town vote on buying the hardware for these mofos?
This is for when you really want to reach out and touch someone.. really reach out.. and touch them real fast... I like it....

Not really. They want to sling a slug with a great bc (ballistic coefficient) very far away with little drop.
Great then you buy one to shoot Prairie dogs with at 5 miles. LOL.
JESUS. FUCKING. CHRIST.

For anyone curious about muzzle velocity, it’s only about 2900fps. The BC of that projectile is what makes it shine.
