Sinterfire same place we ordered them from when we had enough brass to list our frangible load.

You cannot buy the 42 gr ones from sinterfire. Only 45gr and higher. If you want the 42gr ones Rocky Mountain Reloading has them for a good price.

Here is a link to a deer shot with a Frangible, it's graphic so be warned
This was a "one shot kill" if I've ever seen one.

I would like to see a gel test done with a sinterfire frangible shot from a 5.7 pistol. I wonder if it would have a similar effect on a human at close range?
