This video features a detailed, albeit destructive, test of the Triton Ronin optic. The optic was subjected to multiple shots from an airsoft rifle using birdshot and buckshot ammunition, as well as submersion in water. While the optic eventually failed due to water ingress and impact damage, it demonstrated surprising resilience, with the reticle remaining functional and the glass intact through significant abuse. The test highlights the optic's limitations under extreme conditions but also its unexpected durability for its price point.

This video from Civilian Tactical provides an educational comparison of .357 Magnum Full Metal Jacket (FMJ) and Soft Lead Point ammunition. The host, demonstrating expertise in firearms and ballistics, uses a suppressed lever-action rifle on an outdoor range to show the terminal performance differences when impacting a pumpkin. The soft point round clearly demonstrates superior energy transfer and destructive capability compared to the FMJ.

This guide details a practical test comparing the effectiveness of buckshot versus birdshot for home defense scenarios, using pumpkins as targets at close range. The demonstration, led by the Tática Civil channel, highlights the significant difference in impact and exit wound characteristics between the two common 12 gauge loads. The presenter, an experienced firearms content creator, emphasizes safe handling and practical application, showcasing the Beretta A300 Ultima Patrol shotgun.

This video from Civilian Tactical explores the relationship between sound and terminal ballistics. The host demonstrates that while a suppressed .38 Special round is significantly quieter, a supersonic .357 Magnum round, even when suppressed, produces a much larger wound cavity and greater overall damage to a target. The expert assessment highlights the host's high authority and clear understanding of ballistics.

This video compares the power of two distinct .22 LR ammunition types: the very low-power Aguila Super Colibri and the high-velocity CCI Stinger. Using a suppressed Beretta 21A Bobcat, the demonstration highlights the significant difference in terminal ballistics by observing the impact on a pumpkin. The Super Colibri produces minimal damage, while the Stinger creates a much larger, more destructive wound channel, illustrating the vast spectrum of performance within the .22 LR caliber.

This video demonstrates the penetration capabilities of the .50 BMG cartridge, specifically when fired from a Caruna Firearm Raptor .50, against multiple pumpkins. The experiment aims to determine how many pumpkins a single .50 BMG round can effectively penetrate before losing significant energy or deviating. The results highlight the extreme power of the .50 BMG round and the complex nature of ballistics when encountering multiple barriers.

This YouTube video explores the difference between Hollow Point (HP) and Full Metal Jacket (FMJ) ammunition by conducting a test using a pumpkin. The title directly poses the question of which ammunition type is superior in this specific test scenario. While the exact firearm and calibers are not explicitly stated in the provided text, the comparison of ammunition types suggests a practical demonstration relevant to firearm enthusiasts interested in terminal ballistics and ammunition performance.

This guide details a practical test comparing birdshot and buckshot performance using pumpkins as targets. The Civilian Tactical host demonstrates proper firearm handling with a Beretta A300 Ultima Patrol, highlighting differences in penetration and wound cavity size. The experiment provides valuable insights for self-defense ammunition selection at close ranges.

This guide details a terminal ballistics demonstration comparing 9mm Full Metal Jacket (FMJ) and Hollow Point (HP) ammunition using pumpkins as targets. The Civilian Tactical host, a subject matter expert, showcases the significant difference in damage potential, with the HP round causing catastrophic expansion and destruction due to its design, proving its effectiveness for terminal damage over FMJ. The test utilizes a 2011-style handgun and slow-motion footage for clear visualization.

This video demonstrates a comparative ballistics test between a single 50 BMG round and 00 buckshot, using pumpkins as targets. The 50 BMG round completely vaporized the pumpkin and created a deep penetration in the ground, while the 00 buckshot caused significant internal damage but left the pumpkin largely intact. The video also promotes tactical deals available through armory.deals.

This video demonstrates a "Pumpkin Massacre" ballistic test comparing the terminal effects of various handgun and rifle calibers. Instructors Doran and Coach from Tactical Hyve pit 5.7x28mm against 9mm Luger, 22 TCM against 5.7x28mm, and 5.56x45mm NATO against 300 Blackout, all fired from short-barreled platforms into water-filled, corked pumpkins to assess damage and mess. The results highlight differences in projectile mass, velocity, and energy transfer.

This video showcases a ballistics test comparing the penetration power of several high-caliber firearms, including revolvers like the Magnum Research BFR, Taurus Raging Hunter, and Smith & Wesson Model 500, against a stack of pumpkins. It also features a Serbu BFG-50A .50 BMG rifle and concludes with an M67 grenade detonation. The expert analysis highlights differences in terminal ballistics based on caliber and ammunition type, demonstrating significant energy dump and penetration capabilities.
