The R.I.P. stands for Radically Invasive Projectile, and it's built around a concept that's genuinely different from your standard hollow point. Instead of relying on controlled expansion, this round uses machined copper petals that break away on impact and radiate outward like a holesaw, while a central core continues forward for penetration. It's the kind of design that looks wild in the box and performs exactly as engineered.
G2 Research engineered those copper petals with precision, and they separate cleanly when the round hits soft tissue. The geometry of each petal is calculated to reduce drag and maintain velocity as the fragments move through their wound paths. You get multiple shallow channels radiating out from the primary impact, plus the core penetration running straight through. It's not the traditional expansion hollow point approach you're used to, but it's a legitimate alternative built on applied physics.
This load runs at 1,250 feet per second with 319 foot-pounds of energy from that light 92-grain projectile. You're looking at 14 to 16 inches of penetration and up to 6 inches of spread across those separate wound channels. The ammunition loads into reloadable brass cases with Boxer primers and non-corrosive construction, so you can reload if that's your thing. It feeds reliably in modern 9mm pistols.
The solid copper construction means zero lead downrange, which matters if you run drills indoors or in ranges with good ventilation concerns. Clean shooting, environmentally conscious, and it meets non-lead requirements for states that care about that.
Instead of expanding like a traditional hollow point, the R.I.P. features eight machined copper petals that separate from the core on impact and radiate outward while a central core continues forward. This creates multiple independent wound channels rather than a single expanded cavity. The design is engineered for fragmentation in soft tissue while acting like a solid round through barriers.
Yes. While the petaled design looks aggressive, G2 Research engineered these rounds to feed reliably in modern 9mm pistols. The ammunition uses standard brass cases and loads into standard magazines just like any other 9mm. Many users report feeding without issues in common platforms like Glocks, M&P9s, and other center-fire semi-auto pistols.
Solid copper construction eliminates lead contamination downrange, making it cleaner to shoot indoors and in enclosed range environments. It also means the ammunition meets non-lead requirements in states like California where environmental regulations restrict lead ammunition. The solid copper design is equally capable of achieving the fragmentation performance G2 engineered into the trocar geometry.
This load is specifically engineered and marketed for self-defense and personal protection, not general range training. The premium construction and specialized design make it more expensive than standard practice ammunition. It's best reserved for carry rotation, testing reliability in your specific firearm, or defensive scenarios.
