This video details a ballistic gel test of Norma MHP 9mm 85 Grain ammunition, comparing its performance from a subcompact (Canik MC9) and a full-size (Glock 17) pistol. The test focuses on velocity, expansion, and penetration through a clothing barrier, providing specific measurements and observations on projectile performance and recoil characteristics.

The video provides an update on ammunition availability and pricing across several local shops and online retailers. The presenter notes that while some calibers remain well-stocked, prices are generally higher than in the past. Several new ammunition acquisitions are showcased, including 20 gauge, 50 Beowulf, 45 ACP, 10mm, and 357 Sig, with plans for future testing. A new Glock 29 in 10mm is also introduced for short-barrel testing.

This video showcases Black Hills Ammunition's new offering featuring Hornady CX bullets. The CX bullet is a monolithic hollow point with a polymer tip designed for aerodynamic flight and terminal expansion, promising high weight retention for deep penetration. The presenter demonstrates its performance in ballistic gel, highlighting its effectiveness for serious hunters.

This segment from Gun Talk Radio features Daniel Cox, VP of Product Portfolio at Norma/RUAG, discussing Norma's expanded presence and new ammunition lines in the US market. Cox highlights Norma's commitment to quality control across all manufacturing stages, from brass and powder to primers and bullets. He introduces two new self-defense handgun rounds: the MHP (Monolithic Hollow Point), which is cold-formed to pre-imprint expansion properties, and the NXD (Non-Expanding Defensive), which utilizes fluid dynamics for energy transfer without expansion, offering consistent performance and reduced recoil.

This video provides an expert-level analysis of the Norma MHP (Monolithic Hollow Point) 9mm Luger 108-grain self-defense round. The instructor, demonstrating high authority through detailed testing protocols and comparisons, evaluates its performance in ballistic gel and through various barriers. The Norma MHP shows exceptional expansion and weight retention in gel but struggles with barrier penetration, leading to a conclusion about its suitability for civilian self-defense in specific scenarios.
