This video tests the effectiveness of diamond-tipped bullets against various barriers, including steel targets, ballistics gel, and level 3A body armor. The experiment uses lab-grown diamonds and moissanite stones embedded in hollow-point bullets across several calibers. While the diamond tips proved incredibly durable, they did not significantly enhance penetration through body armor compared to standard hollow-point rounds. The tests highlight the extreme hardness of diamond and its resilience even under direct bullet impact.
This video from Civilian Tactical explores the terminal ballistics of shooting moissanite (a diamond simulant) from an Axor Arms folding shotgun. The experiment tests accuracy, energy transfer, and penetration against a shrapnel vest, providing insights into the effectiveness of such projectiles against body armor. The host demonstrates a high-energy, experimental approach to ballistic testing.
