The copper jacketed lead bullet is manufactured by the Hornady Manufacturing Company, Grand Island, NE, and part number 45177. The weight of the bullet is 14.9 g (230 grain) and the sabot 1.2 g for a combination total of 16.1 g. The projectile used for testing was a 1.145 cm (0.451 inch) diameter, 2.4 cm (0.945 inch) long, copper jacketed lead bullet with a rounded tip in a 1.371 cm (0.54 inch) outer diameter, 2.2 cm (0.866 inch) long plastic sabot.
