Ballistics Information and Data

Group we are working an attempted homicide / suicide pro bono. Is anyone aware of where we could gather ballistic data for a 25 calRaven Arms pistol? Specifically how close the weapon can be to thetarget and not leave tattooing and the average distance the casingis ejected from the weapon after firing. -MW


You may try contacting a company called HP White located in Street, Maryland. HP White conducts a variety of ballistic testing for numerous agencies and may have information available for you, if not at least they could probably send you in the right direction,

Hope this helps. -MD


Your question about Tattooing would relate more so to the specific ammunition that was used less to the weapon. The distance that the casing traveled would relate to both the weapon and the ammo. BUT not all of the casings (from the same ammo lot) fired from the same weapon will land in the same area. -WL
