This video provides a detailed ballistic gelatin test comparing FN's 40-grain FMJ and 40-grain SS197 V-Max ammunition fired from a PSA Rock 57 pistol. The test evaluates projectile performance, including velocity, penetration, expansion, and tumbling, both in bare gelatin and after passing through a makeshift barrier. The presenter notes the tendency of 5.7x28mm FMJ to tumble and its impact on damage, contrasting it with the SS197's ballistic tip performance.

This video provides a ballistic gel test comparing CCI and Hornady .17 Mach 2 ammunition, both featuring V-Max bullets. The test reveals similar penetration depths between 6 and 7 inches, with fragmentation observed in both. The CCI ammunition showed slightly heavier recovered bullet weights and a marginally larger expanded diameter, potentially due to its slightly lower advertised velocity.
