This video tests the performance of HSM 200gr Unicor .45 Auto ammunition fired from a short-barreled Springfield Armory XDS mod2 pistol into ballistic gel. The test evaluates penetration, retained weight, and expansion through bare gel and heavy clothing. The data indicates that while penetration is adequate in bare gel, expansion is nonexistent through heavy clothing, raising questions about its effectiveness as a self-defense round from short-barreled .45 ACP firearms. The video also highlights the relatively low velocity achievable with .45 Auto in shorter barrels.
