This video highlights the impressive performance of DoubleTap ammunition, particularly its hard-cast bullets and full copper hollow points, when tested in ballistic gel. The presenter notes that DoubleTap ammo has been used in carry guns for years and was amazed by its penetration capabilities, with one load blowing through 16 inches of gel and another penetrating 15 inches. The ammunition is deemed highly suitable for self-defense applications with small revolvers.

This video tests the penetration capabilities of Underwood Ammo's 10mm hard cast bullets against soft targets, specifically watermelons. The experiment aims to see if these powerful rounds can be 'caught' in soft media after previously being tested against body armor. The results indicate the hard cast 10mm rounds are highly effective at penetrating multiple layers of soft material.

This video demonstrates a rigorous ballistic test of the .45-70 Government cartridge for self-defense applications, featuring the Henry Lever Action .45-70 T-Rex rifle. The host, an established firearms content creator, utilizes specialized equipment and a realistic ballistic dummy head target to evaluate ammunition performance. Key takeaways include the extreme power of the .45-70, particularly with heavy, high-velocity loads like the Grizzly 460gr +P Hard Cast, showcasing its potential for devastating effect.

This video provides a detailed ballistic gel test comparing various 10mm loads fired from a Glock 29 and a Springfield Armory XDM. The instructor analyzes bullet expansion, penetration depth, and wound channel characteristics for different bullet types, including hard cast, hybrid hollow points, and jacketed hollow points. Key takeaways include the performance differences based on bullet design and velocity, with some bullets designed for .40 S&W showing over-expansion and under-penetration when fired at 10mm velocities.

This video from Kentucky Ballistics tests the penetration capabilities of the Henry 45-70 All-Weather rifle using Underwood Ammo's 430-grain +P hard cast load against a 100 lb ice block. The test, conducted by Scott, demonstrates the significant power of the 45-70 Government cartridge, though it ultimately failed to fully penetrate the ice block. The content highlights practical ballistics testing and firearm performance in an outdoor context.
