Videos tagged with Fort Scott Tumble Upon Impact

This video presents a ballistic gel test comparing several premium handgun ammunition types, focusing on the unique 'Tumble Upon Impact' (TUI) projectile from Fort Scott Munitions. The instructor, with a background in forensics and law enforcement, highlights how TUI projectiles, unlike traditional hollow points, tumble end-over-end after initial impact to create a larger wound channel and achieve deeper penetration. The test compares TUI against Norma Monocore, Federal Hydra-Shok Deep, and Hornady Critical Duty, providing visual evidence of wound tracks and penetration depths.

This video presents a ballistic gel test comparing Fort Scott Ammunition's 9mm Tumble Upon Impact rounds against standard Browning 115-grain Full Metal Jacket (FMJ) ammunition, fired from a Canik TP9SFx. The test aimed to evaluate the tumbling and wound channel characteristics of each round. While the Tumble Upon Impact rounds did tumble and create a significant wound channel, the presenter found the performance to be comparable to the FMJ rounds, which also exhibited tumbling and created a substantial wound channel, albeit with greater penetration. The presenter questions the cost-benefit of the specialized ammunition.

This video provides a comparative analysis of the top five lead-free self-defense ammunition options, establishing a performance baseline using two leaded 9mm rounds: Hornady Critical Defense and Buffalo Bore +P+. The instructor emphasizes terminal ballistics and energy transfer, ranking lead-free alternatives based on their ability to match or exceed the performance of traditional leaded ammunition in self-defense scenarios. The recommendations focus on rounds that offer reliable expansion or penetration without compromising firearm longevity or shooter control.
