This video details a ballistic gel test of Buffalo Bore's 125-grain .357 SIG Low Flash ammunition. The test evaluates performance across two different barrel lengths, measuring muzzle velocity, penetration, and projectile expansion. The results demonstrate consistent and effective terminal ballistics suitable for self-defense applications.

This video provides a detailed ballistic gel test and review of Fiocchi Covert X .357 Magnum 125-grain ammunition. The instructor, with apparent expertise in firearms testing, evaluates the ammunition's performance across two different barrel lengths: a 2-inch Taurus 605 and a 4-inch Ruger GP100. The test focuses on muzzle velocity, projectile expansion, and penetration depth in ballistic gel, offering insights into the ammunition's self-defense capabilities.

This video presents a ballistic gel test and review of Fiocchi Covert X .38 Special +P 125-grain ammunition. The instructor, with apparent experience in firearms testing, evaluates the ammunition's performance from both a 2-inch Taurus 856 and a 4-inch Ruger GP100. The test includes velocity measurements and gel penetration/expansion analysis, aiming to determine the effectiveness of this self-defense round.

This video presents a ballistic gel test and review of Speer Gold Dot 125-grain .357 Magnum ammunition, evaluating its performance from both a 4-inch and a 2-inch barrel. The instructor notes that while the 4-inch barrel achieved acceptable penetration and expansion, the velocity was lower than advertised, and he expresses a general dissatisfaction with Gold Dot's consistency across calibers. The 2-inch barrel demonstrated a significant velocity drop and complete failure to expand, leading to over-penetration and a classification as a failure for self-defense purposes.

This video focuses on the Glock 23 pistol, specifically highlighting its performance with 125-grain hollow-point ammunition. The title suggests a demonstration of rapid firing, often referred to as 'double tap,' and the use of defensive ammunition, implying a potential review, range test, or self-defense application. The content is likely aimed at firearm enthusiasts interested in the Glock platform and ammunition performance.

This video details a ballistic gel test of Federal HST 125gr .357 Sig ammunition fired from a Glock 31 with a 4.5-inch barrel. The test measured velocity, penetration depth, retained weight, and expanded diameter through ballistic gelatin, a bear block, and four layers of denim. Results indicate consistent performance and significant expansion.

This video details a ballistic gel test of Remington Golden Saber 125-grain .357 Sig ammunition fired from a Glock 31 with a 4.5-inch barrel. The test yielded impressive results, with significant wound cavities and excellent bullet expansion, demonstrating the cartridge's effectiveness. The presenter emphasizes the consistency of the results and the impressive performance compared to other calibers.

This video provides a detailed ballistic gel test comparing 110-grain and 125-grain Remington HTP .357 Magnum ammunition fired from a 2-inch barrel Taurus 605 revolver. The instructor analyzes velocity, penetration, and expansion, noting significant differences in recoil between the two loads. The 125-grain load demonstrated superior penetration and expansion, making it the preferred choice despite higher recoil.

This video details a ballistic gel test of Black Hills Ammunition's 125-grain Honey Badger subsonic 9mm rounds. The test compares performance from a short-barreled Canik MC9 and a longer-barreled Glock 17, measuring velocity and gel penetration. The instructor notes the projectiles' tendency to tumble, discussing its effectiveness and reliability compared to expansion.

This video details a ballistic gel test of Defiant Munitions' 9mm Luger 125-grain +P Defiant Defensive Match ammunition. The test evaluates projectile expansion, penetration, and velocity from both a Glock 17 (4.5-inch barrel) and a Canik METE MC9 (3.1-inch barrel) using a layered clothing barrier. The results indicate consistent and effective performance across different barrel lengths, making it a viable self-defense option.

This video conducts a ballistic gel test comparing Magtech, Sig Sauer V-Crown, and Federal HST 9mm jacketed hollow point ammunition. The presenter, Guns Pinoy, evaluates expansion and penetration, noting that while hollow points are generally more expensive, they are preferred for defensive pistols. The test uses a Glock 19 and a 10% FBI Gel block from Clear Ballistics.

This video details a comprehensive ballistic gel test of Federal Train & Protect .357 Magnum 125-grain VHP ammunition, evaluating its performance from both a short (2-inch Taurus 605) and a long (6-inch Colt Python) barrel. The test provides detailed velocity readings, penetration depths, expansion measurements, and projectile weight retention, highlighting the significant impact of barrel length on performance.
