I think they just threw the bow in for kicks because in the original
intro they only talked about the 4 pistol cartridges.
the bullet issue doesn't matter because we cant get the AP rounds. (Just like the 308 AP is not available to us. To compare the AP 308 to the commercial ammo we can buy would be the same scenario.
I just thought the bow part was interesting and actually thought it would defeat the body armor based on past experiences on game.
in the test he used a 70 pound draw weight, I consistently shot/hunted with 85 to 95 lbs draw weight and this would have surely
changed the out come, but most bow hunters consider 70 pounds draw weight the average for most. Nothing like a good test to bring things into perspective.
Unlike some test, this was very fair and the vest was a good median to test with because each hit was in a different area and the material was undamaged due to other shots. some media changes if shot more than one time. sorry your favorite pistol didn't come out on top but nether did the bow. They were actually very close to each other.
I am doing some testing using WW 1 AP bullets in a 300 rum to see what the penetration will be with 5 to 600 ft/sec added velocity for hog hunting. I realize the results will be totally different than with commercial ammo.
