Terrible ballistic coefficient dart

At 880 fps this 176 grain dart should have gone much further into the target.
The T shirt acted like a drag racing parachute.
The positive is that the Trom-Boyn is shooting faster and one 174 grain dart was clocked at a blazing 1011 fps.

I agree on the poor penetration. I countersink nails in one shot.

Just as long as it's good enough for your range

It would be an interesting experiment to see how far you can shorten the t shirt material until stability is lost.
