Stats

In-game description

A 5.7x28mm FN SS197SR cartridge with a 2.6 gram lead core polymer tipped expansive bullet with a copper metal jacket, in a brass case. This bullet features a ballistic tip that acts as a wedge on the lead core upon impact, allowing the bullet to expand and cause significant damage on the target, and despite the peculiarity of its design and its low speed compared to other cartridges of its caliber, it is able to pierce basic ballistic body protections.

Against which armor

Penetration 25 is above the resistance of class 2 armor (20) — while such armor is intact, the round penetrates it more often than not. Against class 3, penetrations are rare until the armor is worn down.

For example, the vests it can defeat: 6B2 body armor (Flora), PACA Soft Armor, PACA Soft Armor (Rivals Edition). The full table is in the armor classes guide.
