This video details a ballistic gel test of Corbon Power Ball .45 ACP +P 165-grain ammunition, evaluating its performance from different barrel lengths. The test highlights significant inconsistencies in both muzzle velocity and terminal ballistics, with some rounds showing minimal expansion while others fragmented. The instructor concludes the ammunition is unreliable due to inconsistent loading.

This video demonstrates the dangerous consequences of shooting mild steel targets with standard rifle ammunition. The instructor emphasizes that rounds did not penetrate but instead created significant craters, highlighting a critical safety concern. Viewers are strongly advised against replicating this experiment due to the potential for ricochets and unpredictable projectile behavior.

This video features testing of Federal 165 grain Fusion ammunition against an AR550 steel plate. The description indicates that the plate was returned for quality testing and is confirmed to be without defects, suggesting it was impacted by a powerful round. The content focuses on ammunition performance and material resilience.

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 from Civilian Tactical provides a detailed comparison of 115-grain 9mm ammunition versus DoubleTap Ammunition's unique 165-grain 9mm+P Equalizer round. The Equalizer features a two-part projectile designed for both expansion and deep penetration, demonstrated through ballistic gel testing. The host, identified as a knowledgeable enthusiast and gear reviewer, showcases the performance differences, highlighting the Equalizer's advanced terminal ballistics.

This video tests Remington Golden Saber 165-grain .40 S&W self-defense ammunition. The test involves firing the ammunition through heavy clothing into ballistic gel using a Glock 22 and a Glock 27. The content focuses on evaluating the performance of the Golden Saber rounds in a defensive scenario.

This video details a ballistic gel test of Sig V-Crown .40 S&W 165-grain ammunition fired from Glock 22 and Glock 27 pistols. The instructor, with extensive experience testing V-Crowns, highlights impressive expansion and adequate penetration, noting that clothing barriers would increase penetration. The test provides valuable data for those prioritizing expansion in defensive handgun rounds.

This video demonstrates the penetration capabilities of .40 S&W 165-grain Full Metal Jacket ammunition when fired into a large block of ice. The instructor, from Buckeye Ballistics, measures the bullet's depth of penetration, noting any protrusion and the total distance traveled within the ice block. The experiment aims to provide a visual understanding of how this specific ammunition performs against a dense medium, with future tests planned for other calibers.
