This video presents a 100-yard ballistics gel test of four different 7.62x39mm ammunition types: Sabre Blade Black Tip, Hornady SST, Federal Soft Point, and a Speer Gold Dot handload. The test is conducted using a Ruger Ranch Rifle with a 16-inch barrel. The video aims to visually demonstrate projectile expansion and penetration in ballistic gelatin for each load, providing insights for firearm owners interested in terminal ballistics of this common caliber.

This test evaluates Sabre Blade Black Tip .300 AAC Blackout 110-grain ammunition across two AR-15 platforms (8.5" and 16" barrels). The 8.5" barrel achieved 2164 FPS and 18.5" penetration with 97.8-grain retention, while the 16" barrel reached 2455 FPS and 15.5" penetration with 58.2-grain retention. Both demonstrated immediate expansion and fragmentation, with the shorter barrel retaining more projectile mass.

This video tests the effectiveness of Sabre BLADE Black Tip 5.56 ammunition, specifically the 62 and 75-grain variants, in a self-defense scenario. Using a Palmetto State Armory AR-15, the test involves a heavy clothing ballistic gel setup to simulate real-world performance. The content aims to determine if this ammunition lives up to its potential for personal defense applications.
