DittoGone already dammit.
My guess is that this is basically a flat nosed CCI Stanger'.Watched 22 Plinkster video and tried to order some soon after your post, but DENIED!
Would be interested in seeing how this bullet performs out of various length barrels and reliability in cycling semi autos, especially finicky ones.
I was sure hoping that you'd come along to address this.29gr "self defense" load? Lulz.

How irresponsible is it of Federal to name their .22LR ammo of any sort "personal defense"?
I don’t know, I think there’s a place for it. If someone is going to carry a .22, they might as well carry the most optimized ammo they can get for it. If this is that ammo, so be it.
I only came here for this.I wonder how easily you can get 11 of these to fit into an ear canal...
Just think if you shot 6 22lr rds from a 3" barrel into a bad guy it adds up to the same power as one 9mm rd.There's no optimizing .22 for self defense except by the marketing department. Will it break bone? Will it reliably penetrate the front of the skull? Will it resist deflection by teeth and round bone? Will it defeat light intermediate barriers and make accepted penetration requirements? Will 27gr vs 40gr do any of that better?
If you're carrying a .22 handgun you've already decided to rely very heavily on psychological stops and given up a lot of territory in terminal ballistics. "Optimizing" isn't going to change that in any meaningful way, with the one exception of reliability.
