The video emphasizes safety protocols for shooting activities.
This video evaluates Speer's .45 Auto 230gr Gold Dot Short Barrel ammunition. The reviewer addresses the common challenges of using .45 Auto in short-barreled pistols, such as reduced velocity and expansion. Terminal performance is tested by shooting the ammunition from a Springfield Armory XDS Mod2 into ballistic gel, with results documented for bare gel and heavy clothing. Velocities are also recorded and analyzed. The video aims to determine if this specific load is well-suited for self-defense applications from a compact firearm.
