NIJ STANDARD TEST ROUND

Round	Velocity (ft/s)
.30-06 M2 AP (Steel Core Armor-Piercing)	~2,880 ft/s

In addition to stopping penetration, the armor must limit backface deformation to 44mm to reduce blunt force trauma.

To learn more about the NIJ body armor standards, read our Understanding Body Armor Ratings article.

OFFICIAL TEST REPORT

Want to see the full test report? Download the test document below:

*Note: In the penetration column, "P" stands for partial penetration, meaning the bullet was captured by the armor and did not fully pass through. This is a successful result. A failure would be marked as "C" or "CP" for complete penetration, indicating the bullet fully passed through the armor.
