This video provides a detailed ballistic comparison between 9mm Luger and .45 ACP, focusing on energy retention at 100 yards. The analysis, conducted by an instructor using a LabRadar, highlights how the .45 ACP, despite a lower muzzle velocity, retains more kinetic energy at distance than the 9mm.
This video provides a detailed 100-yard ballistics comparison between the 6.5 Grendel and 50 Beowulf cartridges, utilizing a LabRadar for precise velocity and energy measurements. The analysis, conducted by an instructor with high authority, highlights the 6.5 Grendel's superior aerodynamic efficiency, showing it nearly matches the 50 Beowulf in kinetic energy at 100 yards despite a significant muzzle velocity difference, suggesting potential for greater energy retention at longer distances with less recoil.
This video provides a detailed ballistic comparison between 6.5 Grendel and 7.62x39 cartridges, focusing on energy and velocity retention at 100 yards. Expert analysis highlights the 6.5 Grendel's superior downrange performance due to its higher ballistic coefficient, making it a more effective choice for hunting at extended ranges compared to the 7.62x39.
This video provides a direct comparison of .300 Blackout and 5.56 NATO energy output out to 75 yards, using two 16-inch barrel AR-15 platforms and specific handloads. The analysis, conducted by The Gun Dungeon Host, utilizes a LabRadar to measure velocity and calculate energy, concluding that .300 Blackout offers significantly more energy at these distances, making it a strong contender for deer hunting where a minimum of 1000 ft-lbs is often recommended.
This video provides a detailed ballistic gel test comparing Liberty Ammo's 70gr 'Bear Country' and Underwood's 200gr 'Hard Cast' 10mm loads. The host, demonstrating high expertise through rigorous testing, found the Liberty round fragmented excessively, leading to shallow penetration, while the Underwood round, despite its heavier weight, also underperformed in velocity compared to advertised specs. Neither round was deemed ideal for bear defense based on this testing.
This video provides a detailed comparison of three popular chronograph brands: ProChrono, Caldwell, and LabRadar. The host, demonstrating high expertise, tests their accuracy and consistency using both 5.56 rifle and 9mm pistol ammunition. The analysis reveals that while differences exist between the devices, the natural shot-to-shot variation of ammunition is often more significant.
This comprehensive review details a ballistic gel test of the Winchester Black Talon .357 Magnum 180-grain ammunition. Conducted by the Tools&Targets host, the test utilized a Ruger GP100 and Colt Python, measuring velocities with a LabRadar and analyzing wound channels through heavy clothing barriers. The results demonstrate significant expansion and penetration, with projectiles retaining 100% of their weight and expanding to approximately 0.75 inches, showcasing the effectiveness of this older ammunition design.
This video compares the energy retention of two different weight projectiles for the .30-06 caliber at 100 yards. It specifically examines a 150-grain bullet against a 208-grain bullet. A Labradar is used for precise measurements, and the video features several firearm-related brands and retailers, including Vedder Holsters, Targets Sports USA, Shootsteel, Infinity Targets, Sig Sauer, Federal Premium Ammo, Midsouth Shooter Supply, Guns.com, Magpul, Bear Creek Arsenal, Palmetto State Armory, Creedmoor Sports, and Legal Heat CCW Training.
This video provides a first look at the Labradar LX Compact Chronograph, a new mini-sized shooting chronograph utilizing Doppler radar. It measures projectile speeds for rifles, handguns, pellet guns, bows, and crossbows, offering data like maximum/minimum velocity, average velocity, extreme spread, and standard deviation. Key features include an internal battery and a bright LCD display. The LX's measurement ranges are detailed for different projectile types, and it includes a built-in IPSC/USPSA/IDPA Power Factor calculator. The video also directs viewers to Shooting Sports USA for more content.
This video provides an in-depth look at the new Garmin Xero C1 Pro Chronograph, covering an unboxing, complete setup process, and initial testing. The presenter shares their thoughts and opinions on the device, specifically posing the question of whether it will make the LabRadar obsolete. The video includes chapter markers for easy navigation through topics like attachments, app functionality, shooting data analysis, and overall conclusions. It also subtly prompts viewers for subscriptions.
This video focuses on essential accessories and practical tips for the LabRadar chronograph, aiming to improve setup, usability, and accuracy, ultimately preventing missed shots. The content highlights specific products like a battery pack, Quad Pod, carry case, Arca Swiss mounting plate, and sights from MK Machining and JKL Precision. It also mentions FatBoy Tripods and Thunder Beast Arms suppressors. The presenter, Gary Melton, is a former U.S. Army Special Forces Green Beret and experienced tactical instructor, bringing a high level of expertise to the discussion.
This comprehensive AR-15 barrel length test by Garand Thumb, featuring Noveske rifles and Primary Arms optics, provides empirical data on velocity, drop, and accuracy across six barrel lengths (10.3" to 16"). The analysis, aided by an engineer and LabRadar, highlights the critical role of velocity for 5.56 NATO effectiveness and offers specific application recommendations for each barrel length, from CQB to open environments.
