Pow'r Ball defense rounds

Has anybody shot this stuff? Me and my dad were at the range and he's really picky about his defense rounds and thought this stuff looked like a great design as its modeled to fit the same as a standard full metal. I haven't been able to shoot a clip through yet to see if there are any issues with it, but have you guys had any experience with it? I can post a pic of the round if need be.

Fixed!

Never heard of the stuff.

It's what I carry. Shoot's just like any other ball ammo, well maybe a little more bang due to the +P. No issues here.

Winchester has used this design for a long long time in the 25 auto rounds. It is to make up for the low velocity and light weight of the round. If there was really anything to it I think they would have expanded the lineup.
