This video presents a ballistic gel test of Scorpion 10mm 180 Grain JHP ammunition, comparing its performance from a Glock 29 (3.8-inch barrel) and a Glock 20 (4.6-inch barrel). The instructor, Tools&Targets, critiques the ammunition's claimed velocity and energy, deeming it "weak 10mm" compared to premium loads. Despite this, the gel test shows good expansion and penetration from both firearms, with the Glock 20 achieving slightly better results.

This video details a ballistic gel test of the Winchester Ranger .40 S&W RA40180HP 180-grain JHP ammunition. The test includes chronograph readings from short and full-size barrels and examines projectile performance through a heavy clothing barrier. The presenter provides insights into the old-school design's performance in modern testing scenarios.

This video provides an expert-level ballistic gel test of Federal Punch .44 Special 180-grain ammunition, conducted by the host of Tools&Targets. The test utilizes a LabRadar chronograph and standardized gel blocks with clothing barriers to assess performance from both a Charter Arms Boomer and a Taurus Tracker revolver. The data reveals impressive expansion and penetration, making it a viable self-defense option, particularly for short-barreled revolvers.

This video details a comprehensive ballistic gel test of Buffalo Bore's 180 Grain .357 Magnum ammunition. The test, conducted by a firearms instructor, measures muzzle velocity from both 4-inch and 6-inch barrels, analyzes gel penetration and expansion, and weighs recovered projectiles. The results indicate exceptional performance, with significant energy transfer and deep penetration, suggesting suitability for defense against larger threats.

This video provides a ballistic gel test and review of Federal Classic Hi-Shok .40 S&W 180 Grain JHP ammunition. The presenter, an experienced firearms instructor, tests the ammunition's velocity and terminal performance from two different Glock pistols (G27 and G22). The results indicate inconsistent expansion, particularly from the shorter-barreled G27, likely due to lower velocity and the older design of the Hi-Shok projectile.

This video reviews the SIG Sauer P220 Legion in 10mm, highlighting its performance and features. The presenter, Justin Opinion, notes the pistol's substantial weight due to its all-steel construction, which effectively manages the 10mm recoil. Key features discussed include the Legion's excellent trigger, X-Ray sights, G10 grips, and the new Cerakote finish.

This video features a ballistics gel test of various .44 Magnum handloads fired from a late 1970s Ruger Super Blackhawk. The instructor, with apparent experience in firearms, tests four different bullet types: 180gr JHP, 240gr Hornady XTP, 240gr Speer Deep Curl, and 255gr hard cast. The test focuses on penetration depth and wound channel characteristics, with velocities recorded via chronograph.
