GyroJet, a very kewl concept. In practice not so much. One has to remember they were dealing with 50 y/o ammo. I do believe if this concept progressed further it may have been just as reliable as modern cartridge ammo. The major issue is acceleration distance. The concept is not adequate for short range or personal defense distances. This round may have found it's place with hunters.
