You`re right about APCR, but my bullet isn`t designed to be a ultimate AP ammo. Its a compromise between armor piercing and stopping power. Such small Dart (bullet has 6mm diameter, with sabot even less) would easily penetrate soft armor, but it make small and smooth wound. Wider penetrator - nastier wound and lower AP. But tungsten is denser than lead or copper, and also as alloy with carbon is harder than steel, thats why my bullet would have better penetration than FMJ bullet (but not as good as in dart configuration). For add more stopping power furrowed steel jacket was added. It`s opening like a flower in flesh for better kinetic energy transfer. Result: If enemy is not wear body armor, he would suffer more damage from bigger wound, and You need less shots to kill. If he wear a body armor, he recive smaller wound (jacket would be stopped by armor, but penetrator pierce it). With Dart, he suffer even smaller wound if he don`t wear any body armor (penetrator pierce his body with minimum energy transfer), and You need more shots to kill).
