SLAP = Saboted Light Armor Penetrator - Pretty successful in .50 BMG. These are .22 or .25 cal tungsten penetrator in plastic sabot. Just how a stryker would fare against these is probably classified, but I have no doubt that they'd chew up a m113. I read on the rbcd website (table since removed) that their version of this ammo had a muzzle velocity of 5900 fps. Also heard that they aren't as accurate as .50 BMG ball.
