This video tests the downrange energy of a .22 caliber BRK Sarro rifle using H&N slugs at 130 yards. The test utilizes Firebird targets, which explode upon impact, to visually demonstrate the slug's energy transfer. The rifle demonstrated impressive accuracy and sufficient power to knock over the target stand at the tested distance.
This video compares the energy output of four different calibers: .22LR, .223, .308, and .50 BMG, using water bottles as a penetration medium. The .22LR, fired from a Volquarts and Arms Mamba, showed minimal energy. Surprisingly, the .223, from a Bursas Bar 15, exhibited even less energy than the .22LR, only bursting one bottle. The .308, from a Diamond Back rifle, penetrated two out of three bottles. The .50 BMG demonstrated significantly higher energy, creating a large crater and breaking three bottles instantly.
This review tests the FlatBers Ammunition Caliber 12, priced over $10 per round, to assess its value. Tests included energy impact on a 5-gallon water jug, accuracy on paper targets, and terminal ballistics using ballistic gelatin. The ammunition demonstrated impressive energy, extreme accuracy, and effective terminal performance with 12 inches of penetration, making it suitable for home defense.
This guide details a comprehensive three-step process for testing shotgun slug performance, as demonstrated by Civilian Tactical. It covers energy impact using a water jug, accuracy on a paper target, and lethality analysis via ballistics gelatin, concluding with reliability in a semi-automatic shotgun. The G2 Research R.I.P. slug is evaluated for its effectiveness in home defense scenarios.
This video compares an AR-15 and an AK-74 in a speed and energy test. While the AR-15 is noted for its modularity and bullet performance, the AK-74 demonstrated superior speed in a specific trial and more kinetic energy transfer when impacting a soda bottle. The host, an influencer, concludes the AK-74 performed better in these particular tests.
This video provides a direct, albeit informal, comparison of the ballistic energy delivered by an M1 Garand chambered in .30-06 and a .303 British Jungle Carbine. The test uses canned fruit as targets to visually demonstrate the destructive power of each rifle. The presenter, from Civilian Tactical, concludes that the M1 Garand delivered more energy, shredding its target more effectively.
This video tests .380 ACP ammunition to determine its energy output, aiming to find the most powerful options and achieve 300 ft-lbs of energy. It also includes links to other videos on .380 gel tests, as well as 9mm velocity and gel tests. The description lists various equipment used in the videos, including steel targets, cameras, editing software, ballistic gelatin powder, scales, chronographs, and shooting targets, many of which are linked via affiliate links.
This video features a ballistics gel test of Red Army Standard (RAS) 7.62x39mm ammunition, specifically loaded with the 8V3 projectile. The test aims to gather velocity and energy data for this newly available ammunition, manufactured at the Vympel plant with sealed neck and primers. The video also includes various promotional links for apparel and the creator's online presence.
