Verified Performance,
Published Data.
The performance of the MRR projectiles was tested in a CIP-certified pressure gauge barrel, with a Kistler 6215 piezoelectric transducer and an instrumented laser dot at 2.5 m from the muzzle. The results were published in Armi e Tiro, one of the leading Italian applied ballistics journals.
