Ok. I can't edit my original post, but I'm pretty sure this is a joke.
92lbs of recoil energy from a pistol?0 -

Okay, I'm confused. How can a bullet that is .825 wide make a .25 hole? Let alone 5 bullets .825 wide make a .1 hole.
I'm new to this so someone explain please.0 -
CGR-
Preliminary testing of the new cartridge has been conducted using a single shot, closed-breech pistol with a 10" barrel, and has yielded excellent accuracy results. 5-shot, 100 yard groups have averaged 0.25 MOA, with the largest groups measuring 0.5" and the smallest groups measuring 0.1", regardless of who on the Guns and Shooting Online staff has done the shooting. Seldom, outside of the pages of print magazines, has the shooting world seen such a consistently accurate cartridge
They're not talking about the size of the hole but how close the groups of shots are to each other. The .25 MOA is minute of angle.0 -

Groups are measured from center to center, not by outside diameter of the group. A two shot .5 group from a 22cal would be 2 distinct holes, while from a 50cal it would look like a figure 8, even though the C-C measurment was identical.
BTW, don't look for this at a store near you very soon, handguns over 50 cal are still a no-no.0 -
