This video reviews PolyCase ARX ammunition, highlighting its unique polymer and copper dust projectile construction. The ammunition is designed for defensive purposes, creating a significant wound cavity through a kinking effect rather than expansion. Tested in a Springfield XDS, the .45 Auto, 114-grain rounds achieved 1150 FPS, demonstrating reduced felt recoil, making it a potentially suitable option for compact concealed carry firearms.

Quick Summary

PolyCase ARX ammunition utilizes a unique projectile made from a blend of polymer and copper dust. Designed for defensive use, it creates a large wound cavity through a 'kinking' effect rather than expansion. The .45 Auto, 114-grain rounds achieve 1150 FPS, making them a strong candidate for concealed carry firearms due to reduced felt recoil.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is unique about PolyCase ARX ammunition?

PolyCase ARX ammunition features a projectile made from a blend of polymer and copper dust. This unique construction is designed for defensive purposes, creating a significant wound cavity through a kinking effect rather than traditional expansion.

What are the specifications for the PolyCase ARX .45 Auto ammunition?

The reviewed PolyCase ARX ammunition is in .45 Auto caliber, featuring 114-grain bullets. It achieves a velocity of 1150 feet per second, which is notable for its lighter bullet weight.

Is PolyCase ARX ammunition suitable for concealed carry?

Yes, the video suggests PolyCase ARX ammunition is well-suited for small concealed carry firearms like the Springfield XDS. Its lighter bullet weight and high velocity can contribute to increased velocity from short barrels and reduced felt recoil.

How does PolyCase ARX ammunition create a wound cavity?

Instead of expanding, the PolyCase ARX projectile is designed with grooves that, when impacting a medium, cause a 'kinking' effect. This mechanism directs energy to create a large wound cavity and significant damage, similar to how a kinked garden hose affects water pressure.
