Used them for force on force room clearing years ago with face shields. Came in a room on the sunny side of the house and had to tip my head back to get the glare off the face shield and caught one of those in the upper lip. I guess you could call in red neck botox.

I still have some too. 30,38, and 45's. I remember seeing them in the late 60's. There was an article in one of the gun rags where they put an obscenly amount of Bullseye in a 357 mag case and seated one of the wax bullets. IIRC, velocity was close to 3000fps, but dropped off fast. They said they weren't toys as up close it would probably kill, but I know at 25 ft. it would dent a pop can pretty good, but not penetrate it. Heck of a muzzle flash though. I was trying fast draw with my Blackhawk and shot at a tarantula that happened to walk by my pop cans. Found one leg, but that was it.

Yeah, I have one of the tools. Before I got it, I just prepped the cases like a cast boolit, but not as much flare on the case mouth, and then just seat the bullets with my thumb
