This video provides a detailed, expert-level comparison between the .30-30 Winchester and .45-70 Government calibers, focusing on their barrier penetration capabilities. The host, demonstrating high authority, uses specialized ammunition and Henry SPD rifles to test performance against wood, concrete, sand, and steel. Unexpected results highlight the nuanced performance differences between these classic cartridges, especially with modern ammunition and rifle designs.

This test compares .300 Blackout and 9mm penetration through common barriers like drywall, car doors, and body armor. .300 Blackout demonstrated significantly higher energy transfer and penetration potential, causing more extensive damage to drywall and studs. Both calibers penetrated car doors easily, highlighting their limited effectiveness as cover. Level 3A body armor stopped all tested rounds but showed significant backface deformation.

This video provides a comprehensive comparison between the 300 Blackout and the 30 Carbine, focusing on barrier penetration and terminal ballistics. The 300 Blackout consistently outperformed the 30 Carbine in tests involving lumber, concrete, and steel, demonstrating superior penetration and terminal effects. While both calibers failed to penetrate sand, the 300 Blackout showed significantly more cavitation in ballistic gel, highlighting its modern effectiveness.

This video showcases the Q Fix rifle in 8.6 Blackout, highlighting its ASMR-like unboxing, compact transportability with a folding stock, and suppressed firing characteristics. The demonstration emphasizes the distinct 'thump' of the 8.6 Blackout round and the satisfying 'ping' on steel targets, alongside the rifle's rapid short-throw bolt action and high-end optic setup.

The 8.6 Blackout significantly outperforms the .338 ARC in barrier penetration, demonstrating superior performance against concrete and mild steel. Its 1:3 twist rate enables impressive bullet expansion and wound cavities, especially with subsonic loads, while the .338 ARC struggles in these areas. The 8.6 Blackout also benefits from standard AR-10 magazine compatibility, offering higher capacity than the .338 ARC's reliance on .400 Legend magazines.

This video compares 300 Blackout and 8.6 Blackout performance, revealing that standard subsonic rounds struggle against barriers like concrete. Exotic solid copper rounds, like Gorilla Ammunition's 342 gr Pork Shredder, show superior penetration. High RPMs generated by 8.6 Blackout's fast twist rate (1:3) are crucial for terminal ballistics, especially with solid copper projectiles, as conventional bullets can disintegrate.

This video rigorously tests the terminal ballistics of the 8.6 Blackout subsonic cartridge using human-analog dummies and ballistics gel. It highlights the caliber's extreme rotational energy, massive temporary cavities, and devastating wound channels, particularly with heavy, slow-moving slugs. The testing confirms 8.6 Blackout's effectiveness for specialized roles requiring suppression and high energy transfer.

This video showcases an Active Division run during the Moons Out Goons Out 2024 staff match, featuring a 9mm Hi-Point carbine paired with a BE Meyers MAWL. The shooter hypothesizes that the firearm's reliability and accuracy were sufficient for hitting a silhouette at 125 yards, but acknowledges the Hi-Point's shortcomings in reloading and manual of arms, which hindered performance. The BE Meyers MAWL is highlighted as a crucial piece of equipment that significantly improved the shooter's results, preventing a dismal outcome. The description also lists numerous sponsors who contributed to the event's success and prize table.

This video introduces the Q Boom Box, a new rifle chambered in 8.6 Blackout, presented by Kevin Brittingham. The 8.6 Blackout caliber is highlighted as being three times more powerful than .300 Blackout, offering increased range and energy. The review details the rifle's specifications, including its compatibility with AR-10 magazines and a unique 1:3 fast twist barrel rate, which enhances subsonic projectile performance. Terminal ballistics are demonstrated through ballistic gel and synthetic head testing, showcasing significant wound cavities and destructive potential.

The 8.6 Blackout cartridge, developed by Q, offers .338 projectile power in a package compatible with standard magazines, building on the legacy of 300 Blackout. It utilizes a shortened 6.5 Creedmoor case and is optimized for short barrels, providing effective subsonic performance out to 300 meters. Testing demonstrates significant terminal energy transfer and quiet operation when suppressed.

This video discusses Gorilla Ammunition's innovative polymer-cased ammunition designed for NATO rounds. A key feature highlighted is a significant 30% weight reduction compared to traditional brass casings, which can offer advantages in logistics and handling. The focus is on the material science and practical implications of this new ammunition technology.

Part 17 of the Coast to Coast tour visits Hobb's Island Shooting Range in Huntsville, Alabama. The event featured shooting various firearms including The Fix by Q, Noveske N6 Leonidas, Honey Badger, H&K SP5, B&T TP9, Glock 44, Hi-Point Carbine, and Sugar Weasel. Ammunition included 5.56mm, subsonic 9mm, subsonic 300 Blackout, and supersonic 300 Blackout. Attendees also interacted with silencers, EOTech optics, SB Tactical braces, Edgar Sherman Design slings, and tripods from Two Vets Sporting Goods. Photos were captured by Pine Tree Riot Media.
