12 inches in gel is bare minimum, anything that cannot reach that depth is disqualified for recommendation. These things are coming in at 9 inches or so, so its a complete failure. The nose cone may go deeper? There are many high quality factory rounds today that will punch deep and wide, something the Tango cannot.
Federal's 9BPLE (and similar 115JHP+P+ loads) fail to reach 12" in gel. The 357Mag 125JHP fails to reach 12" in gel. Yet these loads have proven themselves time and time again to be excellent stoppers for decades. People need to stop drinking the FBI's Kookaid.
