This demonstration by Civilian Tactical showcases the significant terminal ballistic differences between standard 5.45x39mm ammunition and the 7N6 'poison bullet'. Through ballistic gelatin testing, the video illustrates how the 7N6 round's design causes immediate tumbling and yaw, leading to a dramatic energy dump and a much larger wound cavity compared to the standard round. The instructor's expertise is evident in the controlled testing and clear explanation of the observed phenomena.

This video demonstrates the extreme penetration power of a Barrett .50 caliber rifle by firing it through five drywall panels. The demonstration highlights how the massive .50 BMG round can easily pass through multiple barriers, even beginning to tumble by the fifth panel. While not practical for home defense, the footage showcases the rifle's raw power and the physics of high-caliber ballistics.

This review details a ballistics gel test of Golden Tiger 7.62x39 124gr FMJBT ammunition fired from an SGL 21-61 rifle. The ammunition demonstrated good performance for its class, achieving an average velocity of 2367 fps and 1542 ft-lbs of energy. Both rounds tumbled early in the gel, with the second shot penetrating 29.5 inches. The instructor highlights its suitability for hunting but not home defense.
