This video conducts a ballistic gel test on .45 Auto Federal 230gr HST ammunition fired from a short-barreled Springfield Armory XDS 45. The test aims to determine if the HST round can still achieve effective expansion despite the inherent limitations of a short barrel and slower velocity. Data on penetration, retained weight, and expansion diameter is presented for both bare gel and heavy clothing tests, along with velocity measurements. High-speed camera footage is utilized for detailed observation.
