This video from Banana Ballistics tests the penetration capabilities of various 9mm self-defense rounds through interior drywall. It compares the performance of FMJ, frangible, and several hollow-point bullet designs, including Federal HST, Hornady XTP, Speer Gold Dot, and others, to determine which rounds offer the least wall penetration in a miss scenario and optimal expansion when hitting a target. The testing highlights the importance of bullet design for self-defense effectiveness.

This video provides a detailed ballistic gel test and review of Buffalo Bore's 9mm 115-grain Plus P Plus ammunition.
