IQ LINE OF CARTRIDGES
This new line of ammunition
is loaded with the first intelligent bullet, made of an alloy (no
lead) with a low specific weight. This feature allows light bullets
like these to have a size similar to those projectiles made from
lead.
We call them intelligent
bullets because they recognize the hardness of the target at the
moment the projectile hits it, and in nanoseconds the projectile
configures accordingly. Thus, if the target is very hard, the IQ
bullet will have superior penetration while maintaining its weight
and size. If the target is ballistic gelatin, it will not overpenetrate,
transferring all the energy into the soft target, and breaking apart
into three or four sharp fragments, each creating independent wound
channels.
Two additional features
that make this high performance ammunition unique is that they can
be fired in any firearm made for the corresponding caliber, without
any modification to the firearm, and recoil is not greater than
when shooting regular ammunition.
The IQ line
of ammunition was specially developed with personal defense and
law enforcement applications in mind and it is also suitable for
hunting.

The high performance
and terminal ballistics of these ammunition is not achieved solely
by one of its characteristics (be it energy, material or any other
alone), but it is the result of the combination of all of them.
