I’m not going to say that the G2 R.I.P. is junk. It does have the capability to penetrate deep enough to cause an incapacitating hit if your aim is good enough to put it on target. It’s not like some of the other gimmick rounds that woefully underpenetrate. But that said, the only thing it really brings to the table that’s new (a big shallow surface wound) is done at the expense of delivering destruction where you want and need it – by putting the biggest possible bullet deep within the body. That’s a poor tradeoff. But the decision’s yours – decide and use whatever you’re comfortable with. Just consider making your decisions based on knowledge and results, rather than on over-the-top claims and marketing hype.

womp womp...

Well they still look good, thats about all I can say in a positive manner.

Maybe better results with the .40 and .45 versions, if that ever happens now.

I just had to bump this... after a search.

because a co-worker comes to me and says 'Have you seen this new awesome ammo?!1' He was 4serious

I had never heard of it, but he was sad when I was done making fun of him.
