Marketing hype

edit

This is all based on marketing hype and 'news' stories. There is no research, fact-finding, or evidence to back up any claims beyond the anecdotal. From the description of the ammunition, it appears to be nothing more than frangible ammunition as has been available for generations.— Preceding unsigned comment added by Asams10 (talkcontribs) 02:22, 2 February 2006 (UTC)Reply

I suggest you rewrite the article to accurately reflect this, then. --Agamemnon2 06:22, 2 February 2006 (UTC)Reply

Frictional heating

edit

and what about frictional heating, and the fact theat bullets are hot coming out of the barrel, I've seen metical photos of gunshot wounds pointing out localised cooking from the heat of the round. my guess is that there is too much thermal noise for it to pick up the difference in temperature between a human body and anything else, especially on a hot day..— Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.52.83.223 (talk) 04:50, 23 August 2006 (UTC)Reply

Apparently these Blended Metal Bullets are really Civilian Varmiting bullets given a new name. --Paulwharton 03:46, 11 December 2006 (UTC)Reply
May want to merge RBCD stub into this article. BTW, it says the firm does make blended-metal bullets. Askari Mark (Talk) 00:46, 30 January 2007 (UTC)Reply
Blended-Metal Bullets are a projectile. RBCD is a company that makes a product. In this case they make Cartridges for firearms. While RBCD uses projectiles in their buisiness they are not the same thing. --Paulwharton 07:20, 25 March 2007 (UTC)Reply

Split from RBCD Performance Plus, Inc.

edit

I have split out this article from RBCD Performance Plus, Inc. as per the discussion at Talk:RBCD Performance Plus, Inc.#Confusion. RBCD Performance Plus, Inc. does not actually produce blended-metal bullets (as defined by the US Navy), so it was confusing to the reader to have the two topics merged.
