My caliper measured estimate of the expansion of the 9mm round (from the picture, using the .45 measurement given for scale) shows at .81 inches.
I’d like to see some denim covered gel tests. This looks pretty impressive.
Still have a bunch of Black Talons. They open up in a similar manner.
All copper is a bit lighter than lead. Corbin has developed most of the defense bullets in use today.

Ouch! Those might sting a tad!
Interesting, I’d like to know what velocities they’re driving these at to get this expansion.
Sadly they probably won’t make it in my favorite caliber, .38 Super.
Glaser safety slugs silver is what I use out of my 44 SPL. IMHO it’s hard to beat.
DRT comes in handgun calibers. Serious stuff with no/minimal collateral damage risks
One of the major concerns with any bullet is to achieve the maximum stopping power at the lowest possible caliber. Stopping power is the bullet’s ability to kill a target by means of ballistic injury. The DRT bullet possesses the power to kill quickly and inflicts massive damage in even its smallest versions. Even though the bullet does come apart, the ability to have a delayed expansion allows this particular bullet to go through light barriers before it expands. It does not act like traditional frangible ammo in the sense that lack of penetration has been the calling card of that type of ammo. We have effectively developed bullets that are penetrating and frangible.

Sick.
I’d like to see how these work on Taliban flesh...
Great for putting down rabid animals and zombies...
