This video explores the terminal ballistics of Open Tip Match (OTM) rounds, often referred to as Match Kings, particularly in hunting scenarios. The instructor emphasizes that despite the 'open tip,' these rounds are not designed for expansion like hollow points but rather for accuracy and consistency due to their high ballistic coefficient. The video stresses that effective use, especially on game, relies heavily on precise shot placement rather than relying on bullet expansion, drawing on personal hunting experiences in Africa.

This comprehensive guide details a ballistic gel test for 6.5 Creedmoor ammunition, featuring expert insights from Johnny's Reloading Bench. The test systematically evaluates the terminal performance of various bullet types (143gr ELD-X, 140gr SST, 130gr SGK, 129gr ABLR) at a realistic hunting distance of 200 yards. It covers preparation, execution, and analysis of bullet expansion, penetration, and weight retention, providing valuable data for hunters and handloaders.
