Videos tagged with Hard Barrier Test

This video provides a comprehensive test of Jesse James' Black Label 115-grain 9mm self-defense ammunition. The instructor, with a clear understanding of ballistics and firearm performance, conducts multiple tests including watermelon penetration, ballistic gel with and without clothing, and a hard barrier test. The results indicate mixed performance, with notable differences observed between a compact carry pistol (Sig Sauer P365XL) and a full-size duty pistol (Glock 17).

This video provides a comparative analysis of three popular 9mm duty ammunition types: Hornady Critical Duty 135gr +P, Federal Premium Hydra-Shok Deep 135gr, and Speer Gold Dot G2 147gr. The tests simulate real-world scenarios, including heavy clothing penetration and a 16-gauge sheet metal barrier test, to evaluate expansion, penetration, and overall performance. The instructor offers insights into which rounds excel in different situations and provides a recommendation based on observed results.
