Oh, what I meant was just for the "extra" DR sloping gives in Gurps... But in my haste to upload my orginal post I just now realized I am in error.

The formula I posted agrees with what David said *without* a fudge for an increase chance of deflection... I got the formula I posted mixed up with a simular but diffrent on in my head that did need a fudge factor... So My bad. Nix what I said about "bouncing", I goofed up.
