This video tackles the question of whether the .40 S&W cartridge is obsolete, despite its continued availability from major manufacturers and firearm makers. It features Brownells Gun Techs Caleb and Steve to discuss the cartridge's performance compared to the 9mm Luger and .45 ACP. The discussion highlights advancements in terminal ballistics for both 9mm and .40 S&W, with the 9mm offering advantages in recoil management and magazine capacity. However, the video argues that the .40 S&W remains accurate and can be more readily available during ammo shortages, ultimately concluding that the cartridge is not obsolete.
