This video tests SinterFire Special Duty ammunition, a sintered copper and tin powder-pressed projectile, in 9mm and .380 ACP. The instructor, experienced in firearms testing, evaluates its performance in ballistic gel with a clothing barrier. While initially skeptical of its light-for-caliber nature and powdered construction, the instructor is surprised by its controlled fragmentation and penetration, particularly from the 9mm variant. The testing provides velocity data, gel penetration depths, and fragment counts, offering insights into this unique ammunition type's defensive capabilities.
