This YouTube video presents a gel test analyzing the performance of .223 62gr Power Strike ammunition fired from a 10.5" upper. The test utilizes a high-speed camera to capture detailed data on penetration (12.7"), retained weight (19.9gr), neck expansion (0.5"), and TSC (8.5" x 3"). Velocities are recorded with an average of 2,376 fps, a standard deviation of 19.54 fps, and a spread of 46 fps. The video emphasizes its educational purpose, focusing on the technical aspects of ammunition performance without offering any firearms or accessories for sale, and explicitly states compliance with YouTube policies.
This video evaluates the performance of the resurrected Super Vel .38 Special +P 90gr JHP ammunition. Using a Smith & Wesson Model 638 revolver and a Phantom V642 high-speed camera, the test assesses penetration, expansion, and retained weight in both bare gel and heavy clothing simulations. The ammunition, historically significant as Super Vel invented the hollow point, is tested for its effectiveness. Velocities are also recorded and analyzed, showing an average of 1,251 fps.
This video tests if 9mm 147gr Gold Dot ammunition remains subsonic when fired from a CZ Scorpion with a 7.72" barrel. The test uses a Phantom V642 high-speed camera and clear gel to measure velocity, penetration, expansion, and retained weight. Results show average velocities around 1,160 fps, with penetration depths and expansion metrics documented for both bare gel and heavy clothing tests. The video emphasizes its educational purpose for understanding ammunition performance.
This video presents a ballistic gel test of the 9mm Sig Sauer P365 115gr V-Crown ammunition, fired from a 3.1" Smith & Wesson Shield pistol. The test assesses penetration, expansion, and retained weight under both bare gel and heavy clothing conditions. High-speed camera footage from Aimed Research is utilized to capture the event. The results show moderate penetration and expansion with the V-Crown rounds, with velocities averaging around 1,083 fps.
This video tests Wolf's 6.5mm Grendel 100gr FMJ ammunition using a 12.5" upper in a controlled ballistic gelatin setup. The analysis focuses on penetration, yaw, expansion, fragmentation, and retained weight, captured with a high-speed camera. Key metrics are provided, including penetration depth of 20.6", 92.8gr retained weight, and an average velocity of 2,337.00 fps. The test assesses claims about early yaw and temporary stretch cavity formation for this specific ammunition.
This video provides a detailed ballistic gel test of the .300 AAC Blackout cartridge, specifically using a 125-grain Speer TNT projectile fired from an 8-inch, 1:7 twist AR-15 upper. The analysis focuses on penetration depth, fragmentation/expansion, and retained weight, directly relating these metrics to defensive use scenarios. High-speed camera footage from Aimed Research is utilized to capture the impact dynamics. The test measures velocities, penetration exceeding 18.6 inches, and a retained weight of 77.8 grains.
