This video details a ballistic test of the .40 S&W caliber, specifically using a Sig Sauer P226 with 165-grain Full Metal Jacket ammunition. The test involved shooting through a 1980s van, including its side and firewall, to assess penetration capabilities. The results indicated that the .40 S&W round was less effective than anticipated, failing to penetrate the firewall and showing less fragmentation than expected. Significant issues were encountered with the chronograph, leading to unreliable velocity readings.

This video provides an expert-level look at the .357 Magnum's power, specifically testing a Ruger GP100. The host, with high authority, uses a chronograph to measure muzzle velocity and conducts a penetration test through a van, demonstrating the round's effectiveness and fragmentation. The test highlights the .357 Magnum's ability to penetrate vehicle doors but notes limitations against engine firewalls compared to other calibers.
