This video demonstrates the exceptional accuracy of a Winchester Model 70 Featherweight rifle chambered in .270 Winchester at 500 yards. Using 130-grain Berger ammunition and a Vortex 6-24x scope, the rifle consistently achieved sub-MOA groups, specifically 2-inch groups at the extended distance. The shooter highlights the rifle's performance with precise, repeatable impacts on a steel gong.

This video provides a detailed ballistic gel test and review of the S&B Exergy .40 S&W 130-grain solid copper self-defense ammunition. The instructor, with extensive experience, tests the ammunition from two different barrel lengths (3.5-inch Glock 27 and 4.5-inch Glock 22) to assess velocity, expansion, and penetration. While the ammunition demonstrated good expansion and penetration, the instructor found the velocities, particularly from the shorter barrel, to be on the lower side for .40 S&W, suggesting it might be underloaded for his personal preference.

This video tests Winchester Ranger Bonded 130 grain 38 Special +P ammunition, a law enforcement variant of the Winchester Defender, to assess its self-defense capabilities. The test involves heavy clothing penetration using ballistic gel fired from a Taurus 856 and a Ruger GP100 revolver. The presenter also shares affiliate links for ear protection and their Amazon storefront, while emphasizing safe shooting practices on private property and no direct sales of firearms or ammunition.

This video tests the Norma Golden Target 130-grain match bullet for hunting applications, challenging conventional wisdom. The test reveals significant expansion and cavitation, with the jacket fragmenting early but the core retaining some mass and achieving penetration. The results suggest this target bullet could be effective for deer-sized game.

This guide details a comprehensive reloading and testing process for the 130gr Sierra GameChanger bullet in 6.5 Creedmoor, as demonstrated by Johnny's Reloading Bench. It covers brass selection (Peterson vs. Starline), primer choice (CCI No. 41), OAL considerations for different rifle platforms (T/C Compass vs. AR-10), and load development with Alliant Reloader 16. The guide emphasizes meticulous reloading techniques, range testing with a MagnetoSpeed V3 chronograph, and ballistic gel evaluation for terminal performance.
