Combat Archery Ammunition - (August 22, 2008)
Effective immediately, the following changes to equipment are required due to repeated incidents of helm penetrations: 
	* Combat Archery ammunition may have at most 1.25" thick padding on the tip after taping. 
	* All UHMW & Siloflex/Rubber Stopper ammunition must have a side wrap of foam added that brings the total diameter of the blunt to at least 1.5" after taping. This wrap must extend from the tip to at least 1/2" over the UHMW or Siloflex itself. 
	* All fletches on any arrows, bolts, or thrown weapons can project no further than 1/2" from the shaft, or must be 1.5" thick.

Can I use 1 1/2" UHMW without a wrap of foam instead of 1 1/4" with?
