This video conducts a ballistic gel test comparing two .38 Super self-defense ammunition types: Colt Defense (DoubleTap) 124gr JHP and Lehigh Defense 115gr Controlled Fracturing. The test, performed from a Colt Gold Cup National Match 1911, reveals significant differences in terminal performance. The Colt ammunition failed to expand, tumbling and exiting the gel block with no expansion, while the Lehigh ammunition fractured as designed, with its fragments and core achieving substantial penetration and spread.

Ted from Line45 reviews Lehigh Defense's Controlled Fracturing (CF) ammunition, highlighting its unique design where the bullet splits into multiple 'petals' upon impact while the core continues to penetrate. This creates multiple wound channels, offering enhanced tissue disruption without sacrificing terminal ballistics. The ammunition is CNC machined from solid copper, lead-free, and demonstrates consistent performance across various calibers in gel tests.

This guide details the expert testing of the Lehigh Defense 9mm 115-grain Controlled Fracturing bullet, utilizing a Wilson Combat SFX9 and ballistic gelatin. The analysis covers bullet mechanics, performance through bare gel, heavy clothing, and Level 3A body armor, emphasizing its terminal effectiveness and safety features for law enforcement and civilian self-defense. Instruction is provided by industry leaders like Bill Wilson, Ken Hackathorn, and Paul Howe.

This video from The Gun Collective covers Lehigh Defense's innovative ammunition offerings showcased at Shot Show 2020. The presentation highlights their controlled fracturing technology, subsonic 50 BMG rounds, 450 Bushmaster fracturing bullets, and the XD line of extreme defense ammunition in calibers like 9x39mm and 300 Blackout. A key focus is the introduction of more affordable 'Eco' versions of their CNC-machined bullets, making advanced defensive ammunition more accessible.

This video reviews Lehigh Defense's 170gr 300 Blackout Controlled Fracturing ammunition, tested in a Northwest Rifle. The reviewer expresses mixed feelings about the results, particularly noting the high cost of over $2 per round and an expectation of reliable cycling at that price point. The description implies that cycling issues were encountered, leading to disappointment.

This video provides an in-depth look at the Henry All-Weather Steel rifle in .45-70 Government, emphasizing its robust construction for harsh conditions. The VSO Host, demonstrating high authority, conducts rigorous testing with specialized Lehigh Defense ammunition, comparing its performance against standard hunting rounds and other Henry models. The review includes precise measurements of trigger pull and rifle weight, offering valuable insights for hunters and firearm enthusiasts.

This video provides an expert-level analysis of Lehigh Defense 300 Blackout ammunition for hunting, featuring detailed ballistic gel tests and a 'Porkzilla' simulation. The Military Arms Channel and IraqVeteran8888 collaboration highlights the terminal performance of various loads, recommending the 194gr Maximum Expansion for its penetration and expansion characteristics in subsonic applications. The assessment emphasizes practical hunting scenarios and the specific performance of controlled fracturing and maximum expansion projectiles.

This video details a ballistic gel test of Underwood Ammo's 9mm +P+ Controlled Fracturing round, featuring a Lehigh Defense bullet. The test demonstrates the bullet's design to fragment into three pedals upon impact, with the central core continuing to penetrate. The results show significant wound channel creation and provide penetration depth and weight retention data, offering insights into its potential for self-defense applications.

This video features a ballistic gel test of Underwood Ammunition's 460 Rowland 170 Grain Controlled Fracturing Hollow Point rounds. The description mentions "Underwood gel test" and provides links for "1776 United Shirts" and to sign up for an email list, along with social media links. The content focuses on the performance of this specific ammunition in a gel medium, which is a common method for evaluating projectile expansion and penetration in self-defense or hunting scenarios.
