This video provides an expert-level ballistic gel test comparing Lehigh Defense's 90-grain Xtreme Defense against a 124-grain premium hollow-point, both fired through a plywood barrier from a 9mm Wilson Combat Professional. The Xtreme Defense demonstrated superior barrier penetration and consistent performance without over-expansion, while the hollow-point clogged with plywood debris, failing to expand and risking over-penetration. The test highlights critical differences in terminal ballistics when ammunition encounters intermediate barriers.
