Videos tagged with 115 Grain

This video details a ballistic gel test of Corbon Glaser Powerball .38 Super ammunition, featuring both 115-grain and 100-grain variants. The test includes a heavy clothing barrier and chronograph readings, demonstrating impressive velocity, expansion, and penetration. The presenter, an experienced firearms instructor, highlights the ammunition's performance and reliability, despite minor firearm-related hiccups.

This guide outlines the process of using Winchester White Box 9mm ammunition for test firing firearms, particularly after repairs or for new handgun validation. The principle is that if a firearm functions reliably with this commonly available and standard-velocity ammunition, it should perform well with most other ammunition types. This method is presented as a benchmark for ensuring general firearm functionality.

This video provides an objective and analytical comparison of Federal Premium's new 9mm Punch 115gr and 124gr self-defense ammunition. The host, demonstrating high authority through standardized testing, found the 124gr load superior in this specific test due to better velocity, energy, and expansion from a short-barreled pistol.

This video highlights a generous donation of 1,000 rounds of 9mm ammunition from Gregory Romeo of Devil's Advocate Armory LLC to Jordan of Poor Boy Arms. The ammunition, specifically Blazer Brass 115 grain, is intended to support future content creation, including reviews and FRT (Firearm Review Test) videos. The gesture is framed as a significant blessing and a testament to community support within the firearms content creation space.

This video provides a detailed ballistic gel test and review of Buffalo Bore's 9mm 115-grain Plus P Plus ammunition. The instructor, demonstrating significant expertise, tests the rounds through two different barrel lengths (3.1-inch Canik MC9 and 4.5-inch Glock 17), providing precise velocity, expansion, and penetration data. The review highlights the ammunition's impressive performance, consistent expansion, and manageable recoil, deeming it a 'perfect 9mm round' for self-defense.

This video details a ballistic gel test of Remington HTP 9mm 115-grain ammunition, evaluating its performance from two different barrel lengths: a 3.1-inch Canik MC9 and a 4.5-inch Glock 17. The test includes a clothing barrier and measures muzzle velocity, expansion, and penetration. The presenter, an experienced firearms instructor, provides analysis on the ammunition's effectiveness for self-defense, noting its solid performance for standard pressure 9mm.

This video reviews Mags and Co. ammunition packaged in sealed 'soup cans' designed for long-term storage. The presenter tests 9mm Luger (115gr and 124gr FMJ) and 5.56 NATO (62gr FMJ) for velocity and reliability. While the 115gr 9mm and 5.56 NATO performed well and met advertised velocities, the 124gr 9mm did not. The packaging includes discreet food-themed labels and oxygen absorbers for preservation.

This video focuses on a specific ammunition issue, 'bullet set back' and 'shearing,' experienced with Blazer 115 Grain ammunition. It highlights a problem that can arise during firearm cycling, potentially impacting reliability. The content appears to be an analysis or demonstration of this ammunition-related malfunction.

This video provides a detailed ballistic gel test and review of Fiocchi Hyperformance 9mm 115-grain standard pressure ammunition loaded with the XTP projectile. The instructor, with clear expertise in firearms testing, analyzes velocity data from two different barrel lengths (Canik MC9 and Glock G17) and evaluates terminal performance in ballistic gel, including expansion, penetration, and projectile recovery. The review highlights the ammunition's consistent performance and effectiveness for its class.

This video tests Federal's 9mm 115 Grain Range Target Practice (RTP) ammunition using a chronograph at seven yards with a Grand Power K100 pistol. The testing focused on velocity, energy, consistency (extreme spread, standard deviation), and cost per round to determine its value for target practice. The ammunition performed consistently and felt slightly hotter than other Federal loads tested, suggesting it could be beneficial for overcoming common shooting issues like limp-wristing.

This video reviews 15 different 9mm ammunition loads suitable for self-defense in 2025, detailing their bullet weights, performance characteristics, and intended applications. It highlights key features like expansion, penetration, and recoil management for each option, offering insights for choosing the right self-defense ammunition.

This video details the process of replacing the factory recoil spring in a Glock 19X equipped with a Radian Ramjet and Afterburner compensator. The presenter experiments with lighter aftermarket recoil springs (15lb and 13lb from NDZ Performance) to address weak ejection observed with the stock 18lb spring, demonstrating the impact on spent casing ejection distance and recoil impulse.
