    I think the more outlandish and garish the ad is in regards to firearms the higher the chance that the product will not live up to expectations.

    I googled it up...

    http://www.theboxotruth.com/docs/bot23.htm

    On sheet rock, the Fang Face round penetrated 11 boards and didn't expand at all; the Freedom round penetrated four boards. Fired through clothes and into water jugs, neither round penetrated very deeply...estimated 3-4 inches equivalent of ballistic gelatin. That may not be deep enough to guarantee damage to internal organs.

    Well, jugs of water aren't human tissue; perhaps, ballistic gelatin tests would be more enlightening. But based on those results, the Extreme Shock rounds appear to be nothing special. I probably wouldn't drop that kind of cash on them without more compelling data...

    I am reminded of the Black Rhino ammo hoax...
