The steel not being mounted still allows the bullets to pretty much fall where they impact at 100 yards. In the end of the video I show a steel core round that hit the metal. They don't fly further than 5 or 6 feet away from the steel. I would not ever shoot at a steel plate that was mounted under 200 yards, that indeed is a formula for disaster. I believe you are correct bamaranger, from what I've gathered it was cheaper to produce these mild steel core rounds, than to produce all lead rounds. The true AP rounds have a little tungsten mixed in them.
