This guide details a comprehensive test protocol for evaluating airgun slugs versus pellets, as demonstrated by the Host of Shooting Gear Reviews. It emphasizes using specialized equipment like a slug barrel, digital scope, and chronograph to analyze terminal ballistics on ballistic clay at various distances. The expert-level analysis highlights the significant advantages slugs offer in penetration and retained energy for hunting larger or tougher game.

This video demonstrates the effect of rifling on a bullet's flight and terminal ballistics. Using a Ruger SP101 in .357 Magnum, the instructor fires a round into ballistic clay, visually showing the rotational damage path caused by the rifling. The demonstration highlights how spin stabilizes the projectile, influencing its impact and energy transfer. The speaker's high authority level is evident through their precise handling and use of specialized testing materials.

This video showcases the terminal performance of G2 Research R.I.P. .45 ACP ammunition fired from a 1911 pistol into ballistic clay. The demonstration highlights the projectile's unique design, which causes it to fragment into multiple pieces, creating a significant wound cavity. The experienced shooter's safe handling and clear demonstration provide valuable insights into this specialized ammunition's effects.

This YouTube Shorts video demonstrates the creation of DIY welder's blanket body armor using materials from a local hardware store. The description indicates a full video is available, which will detail the construction process and subsequent testing against NIJ Standards. The testing includes a ballistic clay box to assess both pass-throughs and back-face deformation. The video also promotes the creator's website for non-homemade armor solutions.

This video demonstrates a point-blank 9mm ballistic test on a Level 3A body armor vest using ballistic clay to measure backface deformation. The test, conducted by 704 Tactical, highlights that while the vest stopped the round, the significant indentation in the clay indicates a potentially lethal impact to internal organs in a real-world scenario. The expert reviewer emphasizes the importance of understanding backface deformation beyond just round penetration.

This video tests the performance of an affordable Bullet Safe NIJ Level 3A body armor vest and a ballistic cap against various handgun and pistol calibers, including 9mm, .357 Magnum, .44 Magnum, .30 Super Carry, 7.5 FK, 5.7x28mm, .460 S&W, and 7.62x39mm. The testing focuses on backface deformation using ballistic clay to assess the impact energy transferred through the armor, demonstrating the vest's ability to stop common handgun threats while highlighting its limitations against rifle calibers.
