This barrier test compares 6.5 Creedmoor and .308 Winchester using various materials like lumber, sand, concrete, and steel. While 6.5 Creedmoor penetrated lumber better, .308 Winchester showed superior performance against thicker steel plates, creating deeper craters. Both calibers were stopped by sand, and both penetrated concrete, leading to mixed results and a personal preference for .308 Winchester by the host for barrier penetration.

This video conducts a comprehensive barrier test comparing 9mm and .45 ACP ammunition across lumber, sand, concrete, and ballistics gel. The 9mm caliber demonstrated superior penetration in lumber and ballistics gel, ultimately winning the overall challenge. While both calibers struggled with sand and concrete barriers, the 9mm's performance in gel, including a slightly wider wound channel, suggests its effectiveness in self-defense scenarios.

This YouTube Shorts video showcases a barrier test of a 300 HAM'R Protector Carbine using 110gr Controlled Chaos ammunition. The test utilizes high-speed camera footage and 24-inch gel blocks to demonstrate the projectile's performance and wound channel after penetrating various barriers, aiming to prove its ultimate effectiveness.

This video provides a comprehensive test of Federal Punch .40 S&W 165gr JHP ammunition, comparing it against the established Federal HST 9mm +P 124gr JHP. The host, demonstrating high expertise, evaluates terminal ballistics through bare gel and heavy clothing barriers, alongside recoil and hard barrier (plywood) tests. The Federal Punch is highlighted as a cost-effective and consistent self-defense round, performing admirably across various scenarios.

This video from 1ShotTV tests the performance of Fort Scott Munitions' 115gr 9mm T.U.I. ammunition. The test involves firing the rounds through barriers such as glass, wood, and metal before impacting Clear Ballistics 20% Ballistics Gel. The firearm used is a Glock 17. The creator explicitly states this is not a scientific test but for fun and experimental purposes. The video also includes a request for channel support via Patreon.

This 9mm defensive load barrier test evaluated Underwood Xtreme Defender, Hornady Critical Duty, Speer Gold Dot, and Federal HST through drywall, wood, and sheet metal into ballistic gelatin. The Underwood Xtreme Defender consistently performed best, maintaining expansion and penetration. Traditional hollow points like Gold Dot and HST struggled with expansion and over-penetration after encountering hard barriers, often plugging with debris.
