This video provides a detailed ballistic gel test comparing Federal Punch .22 Magnum and .22 Long Rifle ammunition fired from a Heritage revolver with a 3.5-inch barrel. The instructor, with clear expertise in firearms testing, presents velocity, penetration, and expansion data for both calibers. The .22 Magnum demonstrated superior penetration and expansion compared to the .22 LR, though at a significantly higher cost.
This video tests .17 HMR ammunition from Hornady (17-grain ballistic tip) and CCI (20-grain soft point/hollow point) in ballistic gelatin at approximately 10 feet. The test reveals that the 20-grain CCI round exhibited better expansion and penetration compared to the 17-grain Hornady round at this close range, with the 17-grain round acting more like a frangible projectile.
This video features Edwin Sarkissian, a practical field tester, comparing the ballistic performance of 9mm Luger and .40 S&W Federal Premium Hydra-Shok hollow point ammunition against sheet metal barriers. Using a Glock 19 and Glock 23, the test aims to demonstrate penetration differences. The results indicate minimal difference in penetration against this specific hard barrier for these particular loads.
