I use these as plinking rounds in my reloads for my 9mm and 223. Pretty fun lil bullet and surprisingly accurate.
I flinched those closer he got.
Still perfectly safe 👌🏻
I’ve seen it available on a ton of websites but never understood the utility of it. Thanks for the info.
You’re most welcome! Happy to showcase it 👌🏻
Didnt know this was a thing, thank you!!
You’re welcome! It’s quite interesting for sure
"Thing" is a character in the Adam's Family.
Go train indoors at the Sig Academy in NH. Frang is mandated on their indoor ranges. Look at the floor under the steel targets and you'll be shocked at how much dust from the bullets is on the floor. There had to be millions of rounds worth on the ground during the LE Low Light Instructor class I took. It was inches thick all over the floor.

Me : I'm frang mang, mang.
Where can I find some of those those are so awesome you don't have to worry about going through a wall or through a door or glass after going through a person or you miss they explode so you don't do any other damage what a great concept
So they WILL penetrate soft barriers. Glass can slow them down, but they will go through standard interior house walls and such. They require something as hard as themselves or harder in order to pulverize into powder.
I believe Midway USA is their main distributor at the moment.
This should not be used for duty or personal defense ammunition. It is really only good for steel target shooting. Our police range did use it for a while because it was supposedly less wear and tear on the baffles downrange.
@@signal13 this flat point variety no. Their duty line on the other hand does exceptionally well when tested in gel. Check out my other video here->
Frangible Self-Defense Ammo?? @sinterfire Special Duty 9mm & 45 Auto Tested in Ballistics Gel
th-cam.com/video/Xa6gOx_z0UU/w-d-xo.html
@@thereloadingcraft Interesting video of the self defense hollowpoint version. I too, was unaware until now that it was a thing. Performance in gel was pretty decent too. Perhaps a little to much overpenetration of some of the fragments, but far better than I would have suspected. That temporary wound cavity was pretty impressive though. Apparently, the Federal Air Marshals did use frangible ammo for a time, but switched back to hollowpoint ammo because studies showed that the risks of catastrophic depressurization on an aircraft had been greatly overestimated. Thanks for the reply.
Ooh yes get nice and close and breathe in all them heavy metals 👌🏻
The indoor range has a positive ventilation system to carry the fine particulate outside. We were fine.
Nice, that makes shooting steel worry free. Thx for ederacating us Mericans.
You’re welcome, and yes it does!
I'll stick with the incendiary rounds.
I like objects igniting at 3-5 thousand degrees and continue to burn. Brings anyone right out of plated armor, and severely injures those in vests...
Rounds that get it done.. incendiary...
1. Need a gel block to see performance. A body is not a steel plate
2 I'd be concerned about using any specialty ammo in a self defense situation.
So with the flat nose range training ones they’re obviously not designed for self defense. SinterFire DOES make duty hollow points that do quite well in ballistics gel. Check out my gel test on them here ->

Hes a dam good shot
Thanks 👌🏻
Lead free right? That’s what the green is referring to?
Correct. The greenline is completely lead free, both in projectiles and the primers.
Nice presentation!
Thanks!
What is the purpose of this ammo?
Will it still hold effective against human targets?
Is is for in home self defense?
Pardon my lack of understanding.
Thanks.
These would pass straight through most likely. They only break up when hitting something as hard as themselves or harder, and soft tissue isn’t harder than compressed and sintered copper/tin. Definitely 100% lethal, and they will pass through a 16” 10% ballistics gel block.

Sounds like nano tech 🤔 it inters your blood stream
What a great idea
It’s a very neat way to prevent ricochet’s or fragmentation dangers.
frangible ammo. AKA small door breaching rounds. these rounds are made and function the same as 12g breaching rounds.
Legends will remember the Nighthawk M1911 review with frangible ammo from FPS Russia 🔥
Takes me back…
Who tf really hasn’t heard about frangible? Truly?
Check out the comments on this short. People are losing their minds because they don’t realize it’s frangible or know what frangible is, even though I expressly said it.

@@thereloadingcraft lol you’re right, that’s so funny to me!! It’s such an old development.
It’s been around for a while, was a surprise to me too how many haven’t heard of it.
I imagine these would be ideal for home defense since you dont want to shoot through the wall and hit a family member or something
Any bullet capable of meeting minimum penetration specs and stopping an attacker is going to go through interior walls. If it doesn’t, it’s not going to be viable to use for self defense in the first place.
Even though I knew what frangible ammunition is, I still got nervous watching you shoot the steel from so close
Oh it’s definitely an adrenaline experience the first couple times you do it. I’ve tested it enough times and seen the production to know it’s safe
This is revolutionary
Interesting. What are their ballistic properties compared to conventional ammunition? Do these come in varied bullet weighs? How about barrel fouling?
There are various weights, but they typically are going to be lighter than a comparable FMJ. velocities are a bit higher thanks to the lighter weight, and barrel wear is reduced because they’re lower pressure than heavier weight ammo.
So what your saying is I need a hardened steel box my supressor thies rnds and I can shoot in my garage without the nabors calling the cops!?? I'm sold
Never used the Sinterfire frangible, but I do use the Norma LE frangible rounds.
What would this do in ballistic gel? How much penetration could this have if you accidentally used it as carry ammo?
These would pass straight through most likely. They only break up when hitting something as hard as themselves or harder, and soft tissue isn’t harder than compressed and sintered copper/tin. Definitely 100% lethal, and they will pass through a 16” 10% ballistics gel block.

I understand that they are designed for close range. At 50yrds I have had a meter discrepancy!
Discrepancy in POI? What caliber were you using?
@@thereloadingcraft I would have to find them, either .223 or a 5.56. I switched to ball nose and I was at a 3 mill group (I am not a marksman by any means) but my (older buddy) was giving me crap saying it was my red dot. Ammunition was a gift and using a 5.56/.223 ar. After changing to a normal round it hit steel every time at 50-75 yrds!
Interesting 🤔
I know with the 9mm there can be a bit of an impact shift due to lighter projectile and faster/flatter velocity.
In 223/5.56 though I haven’t noticed much difference. They’re standard 55 grain, and are doing around the 3100 FPS out of a 16” barrel. Could’ve been a difference in an earlier lot, or maybe something specific to the rifle perhaps. I’m honestly not sure
So what happens if you shoot someone with them? How much penetration does it offer? Does all the energy get dumped into the body making it more effective then a pass through shot?

Created for air marshals and carrying on aircraft and to not penetrate walls so you don't take out your neighbors when someone breaks into your apartment
Not completely correct. They WILL penetrate interior walls-in fact any bullet designed to be lethal will penetrate multiple interior walls. Exterior walls though, especially if they’re made of brick or block will stop them however.
@@thereloadingcraft yeah I looked that up after but definitely for aircraft
I didn’t realize the aircraft bit. Makes perfect sense tho 👌🏻
@@thereloadingcraft colt or s&w made a revolver for air Marshals I'm pretty sure it had a plastic cylinder because of how lowpressure it was and it fired ceramic bullets so it wouldn't over penetrate. I believe they used them in the 70s and there may have been 1 case of someone actually using it. Ian from forgotten weapons has a video on it
@@UncleHashy I will have to look it up! Love Ian’s channel and the cool pieces he shows!
Good to know for when you have to turn your hallway into a shooting range..🤭
Now this just makes me wonder how these would do against a person. I mean if you didn't want to have to worry about over penetration, then THIS would be your best bet. Plus I wonder if this couldn't be considered "less than lethal" rounds, as they would probably not penetrate very far into a person either.

No I didn’t. It stops and powder-izes on the steel, not as much as a divot or dent.
Got a bunch of it. Cuts my carry weight down a few ounces and I know I won’t over penetrate my target

I can never tell when y'all are joking or serious.
@@NOOOOOOO0OOOOO well its important so you dont hit anything behind the target!

What's that do to your bore of the gun??? What do you clean it with? 🤔
Nothing regular ammo doesn’t…? It’s copper just like regular FMJ against your barrel.

Best of both worlds.
Stay safe peeps.
Why is this bullet that doesn't do bullet things so fun? Lemme show ya
Would be nice to see some collateral damage testing. Shoot some dry wall, bricks, lumber etc.
Definitely can arrange that, I know for a fact they will penetrate drywall no problem, but should stop on brick or block. Lumber is an interesting one, need to test that and find out 🤔
Wow!
Why did you not do a gel test? Thats what i really want to know. How does it act in a soft target?

@@thereloadingcraft noted, *thank you*
And great explanation
Thanks!
Correct me if I'm wrong but wouldn't that make it penetrate way worse while also costing more? Maybe I'm not the target audience.
So these (the flat point models) will penetrate soft tissue, but will stop and fragment into small pieces whenever they hit something as hard as themselves or harder (think brick, block, steel, etc)
SinterFire does make Frangible duty projectiles which are designed to perform well in gel, check out my video on them here. th-cam.com/video/Xa6gOx_z0UU/w-d-xo.html
It turns to dust on impact so how would it penetrate more?
In soft tissue it will penetrate like an FMJ. They only go to dust when they hit something harder than themselves
What about breathing that dust? Safer than lead?
Positive ventilation with dust extraction near the target, so we weren’t breathing it. But yes a lot safer than lead even if you were.
ghost bullets
They’re not, because they do leave particulate behind, and if they hit soft tissue act like a normal projectile. They only powder on hitting something hard.
I've definitely been hit by ricochets of sintered/frangible ammo, but it just hurt, no bruising or cuts.
What mfg. sintered were you running? With the SinterFire it feels like you’re having sand blown on you on the beach, nothing even stinging.
@@thereloadingcraft federal syntek
@@thereloadingcraft also, sorry, can you upload the excel sheet you're using to calculate price per bullet?
I was pretty sure and just did some research-syntech uses a polymer coating over a lead core and is not a true Frangible bullet. It will still send lead splatter out after it hits the target. I would not recommend shooting it up close for that reason. Unless there is a true Frangible offering in their syntech lineup that I’m missing, of course.
And yes on the spreadsheet, though it will be a bit as I work second shift and won’t be home till late.
Actually send me an email at thereloadingcraft@gmail.com and I will send it to you that way.
Huh. Neat!
Agreed, they’re super cool!
What's the damage like need some bolistic test done
So the regular flat point training rounds will go straight through a 16” gel block. Their Special Duty Hollow Point projectiles on the other hand do quite well in ballistics gel, and you can see my test on them here ->th-cam.com/video/Xa6gOx_z0UU/w-d-xo.html
What makes this desirable in any way? The other things I've watched about it is that the collateral damage would be approximately the same.
They’re completely lead free, and they don’t splatter and ricochet like standard FMJ’s do, if they hit something hard
@@thereloadingcraft looking for a low collateral damage antipersonnel round. Got any suggestions?
@@fppro1679 can you define what you mean by low collateral damage?
@@thereloadingcraft damage other than the intended target, going through walls, etc. Looking for something expends all its energy in the primary target.
If you’re hitting the intended target, most defense hollow points will dump 90%+ of their energy. Any bullet designed to meet defense protocol standards WILL penetrate through interior walls, and anything that will not is underpowered at best.
Are they legal ? What does it leave in a person ?
These would pass straight through most likely. They only break up when hitting something as hard as themselves or harder, and soft tissue isn’t harder than compressed and sintered copper/tin.

i know frangible ammo from fpsrussia
It's been around for a long time, but extra salty.
and what happens if your target is wearing dense and thick clothing?
Unless that clothing happens to be Kevlar or has steel in it, the standard FP models should penetrate right through. We’re planning a heavy clothing ballistics gel test here soon
Too bad SinterFire won't run at all in my wife's G42. Maybe if I find a lighter recoil spring assembly it might.
Possibly? Is it the factory spring?
@@thereloadingcraft it is. Though I probably should clarify that with the pistol in my wife's hands, the SinterFire ammo would stovepipe nearly every round, though in my hands, I could typically run a full mag without failure. Which indicates to me that a weaker grip (limp wrist) may be the actual issue & not 100% an ammo issue. Either way, the ammo does have to be reliable in a particular pistol WHILE in the hands of the person who will be carrying it.
We took her G42 out to the range last week & put 8 different boxes of hollow point ammo through it so we would know before a potential GO GO GO.
3 brands would either stovepipe or just wouldn't push the slide far enough to even engage the ejector, leaving the spent brass in the chamber. And those Federal HSTs... oof. Makes that G42 feel like a 38 spl J-Frame.
What was surprising to me was that the ultra light Liberty Civil Defense rounds weren't much better in the perceived recoil department. Sig & Rem. did pretty well, but I was also disappointed with Hornady for having 3 : 20 feed hang issues.
At any rate, more ammo ordered & in route for further testing.
Afterwards I would likely be open to seeking out an alternate recoil spring assembly.
Definitely seems like a grip issue if it’s cycling perfect for you but not for her. Aside from seeing if she can improve her grip, I would recommend making sure all metal-on-metal components are well lubed (any excess friction retarding the slide travel speed can have compounding effects when in a weak grip) and if it’s still doing it then maybe check into recoil springs. The spring needs to be strong enough to reliably chamber even when it’s dirty, but light enough to allow the slide to go fully rearward when fired to extract and chamber the next round.
So now i can shoot in my house 😊
No! 😅 these will still go through drywall like nothing. These would pass straight through most likely.

You definitely don't want to be breathing in that frag dust if you're indoor shooting. Also I've had pretty poor performance with the greenline ammo as in multiple hangfires and even a squib once.
The room we were in had positive ventilation to remove the particulate. Also if you had issues with it, reach out to SinterFire-their customer service is top notch, and if there was an issue in the product I guarantee they will do their best to make it right.
Wouldn’t want to breath it in
We didn’t. Positive ventilation and particulate evacuation in that range.
So, what's the point of this? From what I understand If it would be used as a self defense round it would still penatrate a body and keep traveling and penatrate walls until it hits steel. Who has steel built into their walls at home? Maybe I'm missing something.
The point of the standard flat point rounds is for training on steel where you won’t have ricochet hazards. For the defense HP loads, they will break apart when hitting concrete, block, steel, and asphalt although they will take chips out of those respective materials. They are also lead free, and can be shot indoors without lead exposure, provided you’re running the green line which has lead free primers as well.
The primer in these can corrode fast though
Um….what? They use non-corrosive primers, like all modern ammunition manufacturers do.
@@thereloadingcraft something happened. During the pandemic, I purchased sinter's hollow points and fmj rounds because they were the only thing available at the store due to the shortage. I stored these along with my Remington, Winchester, and some foreign polish 9mm rounds and the only problem out of all the ammo was my sinterfire's had green around the brass and the primer, and the letter stamp I'm between the rim and the primer. I didn't buy enough to call and complain, I had around 100 rounds out of 300 to go bad. All properly stored in my range gear. I like the performance of this ammunition, but from what I have seen I would 100% not recommend for long term storage unless this was just a rare blue moon event, the stars aligned, and I got screwed. The length of storage time was around one year. Not long at all. I know of people who have ammo that is older than me and I'm 32 and their stuff still works lol. Who knows, but I thought I would just throw my feedback out there in case any need to know
I bet thats really healthy to breathe in
It’s a positive ventilation room with dust extraction, and furthermore there is no lead particulate!
What exactly would you use this for?
Anywhere that you’re training on steel inside normal shoot ranges (say 15 yards and in) and don’t want any kind of richochet hazards, or anywhere you do not want lead exposure.
Does it foul up your barrel?
Not anymore than regular ammunition.
Mike Glover thinks this is what hollow point do
I shot some frangible bullets and it would go through a brake rotor
That’s odd…what brand Frangible and was the rotor super thin or something?
@@thereloadingcraft they were inceptor frangible for 50 Beowulf. The rotors were off the back of a grand caravan and about 1/2 inch cast
so, if you don't want the cops to match a projectile to your gun...
That’s literally not even how bullet tracing works…also they don’t fragment unless they hit something harder than themselves…
So untraceable bullets?
No, they still leave fine particulate, and the standard FP models don’t fragment in soft tissue. (They stay solid)

Weird. Guess I'm just old school.
Nothing wrong with old school. SinterFire has been making these since ‘98, and I believe early versions of Frangible go back even further than that.
What happens if you shoot people with em
But... Why?
Dont breathe that in.
The room has positive ventilation
Inhaling all that lead can’t be good
There is absolutely zero lead in SF GreenLine ammunition.
Do they come with 7.62x51 NATO?
Asking for a friend...
I believe so? Would have to check Midway
Last I heard, frangible ammo is illegal to own. Has it been made legal?
Frangible has never been illegal to own, at least here in the US. You may be thinking of armor piercing?
Tell them they should invest in respirators
There is a positive ventilation system to carry the particulate away from the shooters
Untraceable rounds sounds like a bad idea
They’re not untraceable in the least.
Can you explain exactly how its a bad idea?
Still finding regular ball ammo for cheaper then this stuff.
Yes ball is cheaper, but you can’t do this with ball
How much is a box tho ? Lol
