| Does anyone know where I can get a copy of the Strasbourg Tests? This was a terminal ballistics research project conducted in Europe during 1991-92 that used live animals as targets. |

Hello, There is considerable debate on whether the Strausbourg Tests are real or fabricated. Most of those in the wound ballistics industry seem to think the tests were fabricated. I recall seeing some data (Dale Trowert(?) stopping power page?) and recall that it mirrored stopping power almost exactly (foot-pounds of energy being the deciding factor). But once again, the nature of the tests seem to be quite suspect. You might want to try over at the tactics forum. I apologize, I am so feeble a moderator, I don't know how to move your post.
