This video provides an expert-level comparison of 9mm Hollow Point (HP) and Full Metal Jacket (FMJ) ammunition, utilizing FBI-standard ballistic gel. The host, identified as a Subject Matter Expert in tactical equipment, demonstrates the superior terminal ballistics of the Defiant Munitions 9mm TCX HP round, highlighting its significant expansion and energy dump compared to the FMJ's deep penetration with minimal expansion. The test was conducted using a Canik Mete SFT pistol on an outdoor range.

This video from Taran Tactical, featuring renowned instructor Taran Butler, experimentally tests the famous 'Dirty Harry' claim about the .44 Magnum's destructive power. Using realistic ballistic dummies, they demonstrate the catastrophic damage inflicted by both a Smith & Wesson Model 29 chambered in .44 Magnum and a 44 Auto Mag, concluding that while heads don't literally fly off, the destructive potential is immense.

This entry details the innovative NovX ammunition, focusing on its 9mm Engagement Extreme +P load. It highlights the unique fluted poly-copper ARX projectile and its two-piece Stainless Steel/Aluminum (SST) case, designed to achieve high velocities and create significant cavitation, often referred to as a 'liquid sonic boom.' The information is presented with technical specifications and performance data, drawing from expert analysis by NRA publications and NovX CEO.

This video provides an expert-level ballistic gelatin test comparing 9mm and .45 ACP defensive ammunition. Instruction comes from Pete, a retired USSF member, who details the performance of Barnes TAC-XPD 9mm and Cor-Bon Pow'R Ball .45 ACP.
