This review tests CCI Blazer 9mm JHP ammunition through two different barrel lengths (3.1" and 4.5"). While the ammunition met advertised velocities from the longer barrel, its performance in ballistic gel was deemed poor, with significant over-penetration and lack of reliable expansion from the shorter barrel. The reviewer concludes that despite its price point, it does not offer good value or performance compared to other options.

This video provides a comprehensive overview of new ammunition introduced at SHOT Show 2025. Key highlights include Winchester's modernized 22 "Sharps" cartridge addressing 22 LR limitations, Hornady's 338 ARC designed for AR-15 platforms, CCI's affordable Blazer Brass JHP training rounds and specialized Rimfire loads, Remington's Core-Lokt Tipped Lever Gun ammo and upland/waterfowl shotgun loads, and Federal's expanded HST line with a new 44 Magnum offering and specialized hunting cartridges like the 7mm Backcountry.

This video from Kentucky Ballistics, featuring Scott, explores the minimum velocity required for a 9mm bullet to achieve lethal effect. Using a Ballistic Dummy Lab torso and a ProChrono DLX chronograph, the experiment systematically tests various 9mm loads fired from pistols with different barrel lengths. The results demonstrate a clear correlation between velocity and penetration, culminating in a dramatic test of a 4-gauge shotgun.

This video provides an expert-level review and ballistic gel test of Black Rambo 9mm JHP ammunition, comparing it against Hornady Critical Defense. The host, GHG Hussle, demonstrates practical range experience by using industry-standard Clear Ballistics gel to analyze terminal performance. The comparison focuses on bullet expansion, penetration, and temporary wound cavity size, offering insights into the effectiveness of Black Rambo as a defensive ammunition option.

This video demonstrates a ballistic gel test of the Federal Hydra-Shok 147-grain 9mm Jacketed Hollow-Point (JHP) ammunition, fired from a Glock 19. Ed Combs, Associate Editor of Concealed Carry Magazine, explains the importance of terminal ballistics and addresses concerns about over-penetration. The test results show the bullet achieved 18-19 inches of penetration and significant expansion, providing practical insights into the effectiveness of this popular self-defense round.

This video details a ballistic test on a Dodge Stratus, evaluating its protection against 9mm handgun rounds. Expert Edwin Sarkissian uses a Glock 19 with both FMJ and JHP ammunition, demonstrating the limited ballistic resistance of the vehicle. The test highlights how different ammunition types perform after penetrating the car's structure, offering practical insights into vehicle vulnerability.
