OK, I'll admit that I was exaggerating a little about the heavy overcoat.
One of those will definitely stop most Cowboy Action Shooters' .38 Spl handloads, but a .41 RF derringer load MIGHT get through...LOL Glad you enjoyed the video. |

A recent GUNS Magazine article...
...found greater velocity and penetration than previously thought for the .41 Short Rimfire. Smokeless powder rounds were found to deliver a 130 grain bullet at 550 to 600 fps from a Remington derringer.

When did they start offering smokeless?
That bumps up velocity from BP by about a hundred fps.
