This video reviews DoubleTap's 10mm 155-grain copper expander ammunition through ballistic gel testing. The presenter, an experienced firearms instructor, found the ammunition to be underpowered for the 10mm caliber, despite good expansion and penetration. While deemed adequate for self-defense, it doesn't meet the 'hot-loaded' expectations for 10mm.

This live stream from Tools&Targets celebrates reaching 100,000 subscribers and features extensive viewer interaction. The host discusses various firearms-related topics, including ammunition performance, firearm preferences, and YouTube's platform dynamics. Key discussions revolve around 10mm ammunition, with specific recommendations for Buffalo Bore and Underwood, and general thoughts on self-defense calibers.

This video presents a ballistic gel test comparing two 10mm Underwood ammunition loads: a 155-grain XTP and a 150-grain Nosler Sporting projectile. The test, conducted using a Glock 20 Gen 4, measured velocity, penetration, expansion, and fragmentation. While both rounds performed well, the 155-grain load demonstrated superior expansion and slightly less fragmentation, leading the reviewer to favor it for self-defense applications.

This video tests Remington HTP .40 S&W 155-grain self-defense ammunition through ballistic gel with heavy clothing barriers. Despite advertised muzzle velocities of 1205 fps, actual chronograph readings from a 3.5-inch Glock 27 averaged 1060 fps and from a 4.5-inch Glock 22 averaged 1128 fps. Critically, the ballistic gel test revealed a complete failure to expand in both tests, with projectiles penetrating both gel blocks without significant expansion, leading the instructor to deem the ammunition unsuitable for self-defense.

This video provides a detailed ballistic gel test comparing Federal Premium HST .40 S&W ammunition in 155-grain and 165-grain weights. The instructor, using a Glock 27 with a 3.5-inch barrel, measures velocity, penetration, and expansion for both loads after passing through a heavy clothing barrier. The 165-grain load demonstrated slightly superior performance in penetration and expansion, though both rounds performed exceptionally well.

This video focuses on the accuracy of a Taurus PT140 Millennium Pro pistol chambered in .40 caliber. The shooter attempts to achieve accuracy using a table rest at a local range, noting that the gun has the potential for better performance. The ammunition used is American Eagle red box 155 grain. The description highlights the shooting conditions and the intent to demonstrate the firearm's potential accuracy.
