This video provides an in-depth review and testing of the Grimburg TYR Less Lethal Launcher, featuring guest Houston Jones. The review highlights its exceptional power, confirmed by chronograph readings and extensive ballistic gel testing, which demonstrated significant penetration and damage capabilities for a less-lethal device. The testing was conducted by Scott from Kentucky Ballistics, an established personality in firearms and ballistics testing.

This review of the AEA Element MAX .58 caliber air rifle, presented by an experienced reviewer from 1ShotTV, details its impressive ballistics, achieving 600 ft-lbs of energy and 800 fps with a 398-grain projectile. The guide covers its operation, refilling with a GX Pump, and extensive testing including penetration in peanut butter, expansion in water jugs, and a detailed ballistics gel test. The reviewer highlights its manageable recoil and lightweight design compared to other big-bore airguns.

This video compares Underwood's 68-grain 9mm +P Extreme Defender ammunition against Hornady's 135-grain 9mm +P Critical Duty. The Underwood offers a significant reduction in carry ammo weight (25% less) while delivering substantially more muzzle energy (489 ft-lbs vs. 369 ft-lbs). This demonstrates a tactical advantage for concealed carriers seeking to optimize their loadout.

This guide outlines a power testing protocol for Gamo Swarm air rifles, as demonstrated by Ben Pierson. It details steps for measuring muzzle velocity, penetration through steel and water jugs, and considers environmental factors like altitude. The testing emphasizes consistent pellet selection and the use of specialized equipment for accurate data collection.

This video provides an expert-level comparison between the .50 Beowulf and .458 SOCOM calibers, featuring data-driven insights from an established firearms reviewer. The comparison includes chronograph readings for muzzle velocity and energy output, demonstrating the performance differences between specific loads from Alexander Arms and Black Butterfly Ammunition. The review also touches on terminal effects using a practical, albeit unconventional, test.

This video details a ballistics gel test of Wolf Military Classic 5.45x39 soft point ammunition fired from a 16-inch AK-74 variant with a cold hammer forge barrel. The test highlights the ammo's expansion characteristics, penetration depth, and energy output, noting it performed better than expected for Russian ammunition. The instructor also explains the removal of denim from rifle testing protocols based on expert advice.
