    They would be great to shoot down drones.
    Experience. What you get just after you needed it.

    Does the blue cap break up in flight ? Can't see how you'd get a spread pattern... Be interesting to see what a 10m paper target looks like.

    Think they call them 'Glaser' bullets designed to penetrate n shed all energy inside target without over penetration ie aircraft or light walled buildings.

    Buffalo Bill used a similar system in his Wild West Show.

    He'd come riding into the Tent on his White Horse with both pistols drawn, shooting and smashing plates thrown up by his assistant.

    Most people thought he was a very good marksman, which he was, however the shot he was using in the pistol loads did help build that reputation.

    Cheers

    The glaser rounds are large jacketed hollow points with a blue cover with pellets in them.
    These are close but they aren't them.

    Will post a picture of them later.

    Don't see any difficulty in that. Would be piece of piss.
    No pistol club in NZ would allow anyone to attempt it I would think.😆
