This video from Banana Ballistics provides an expert-level comparison of two powerful subsonic cartridges: the .50 Beowulf and the .45-70 Government, featuring Steinel heavy hard cast bullets. The host, demonstrating high expertise in ballistics, conducts controlled tests on ballistic gel, plywood, and steel targets, utilizing Banish suppressors. The analysis includes terminal performance, penetration capabilities, and recoil comparison, offering valuable insights for firearm enthusiasts interested in heavy subsonic loads.

This video tests Steinel's .45 ACP ammunition, specifically loaded to lower .455 Webley pressures, in a standard 1911 pistol. The experiment confirms that these reduced-pressure rounds possess sufficient energy to reliably cycle the 1911's action, with the slide locking back on an empty magazine. This demonstrates the viability of using such ammunition in 1911s that might otherwise be damaged by standard .45 ACP loads.
