7 PRC V.S. 300 Win Mag Ballistics Gel Test

This video details an extreme accuracy challenge where participants shoot at distances up to 1000 yards. It highlights the performance of various precision rifles and cartridges, including 7 PRC, 6.5 PRC, and .308 Winchester. The competition emphasizes shooter skill in adjusting for wind and ballistics, with Nate ultimately winning the challenge and a belt buckle prize.

This video compares the 7 PRC and 300 Win Mag cartridges through a series of penetration tests involving steel and wood, as well as a water jug test. The presenter, an experienced shooter, found the 300 Win Mag consistently outperformed the 7 PRC in terms of hole size and penetration depth across these specific tests, contrary to his initial expectations.

This video details the inaugural Backfire Accuracy Challenge, featuring custom and factory rifles from various manufacturers. Expert insights are provided on rifle components, ballistics, and competitive shooting strategies. The challenge highlights the performance of different calibers and builds at extended ranges, culminating in a tie-breaker for the championship.

This video provides an in-depth analysis of rifle accuracy, challenging industry claims with extensive 20-shot group testing. The Backfire team highlights the Horizon Vandal X as the most accurate factory hunting rifle and a custom 6 Dasher as the most accurate overall. They emphasize that recoil, not price or weight, strongly correlates with accuracy, and identify top performers in various price brackets.

This video details a 100-yard ballistics gel test of four different 6.5 Grendel loads fired from an 18-inch barrel. The test evaluates Speer Gold Dot 120gr, Hornady SST 123gr, Barnes GMX 120gr (all-copper), and Hornady ELD-M 123gr. The instructor provides insights into bullet expansion, penetration depth, and potential hunting applications for each load.

This video provides a data-driven comparison of various rifle cartridges, focusing on their 'flatness' of trajectory. The expert analysis, utilizing chronographs and detailed data tables, highlights how muzzle velocity and Ballistic Coefficient (BC) influence long-range performance. Key takeaways include the superior flatness of cartridges like the .22 Creedmoor and the impact of barrel length on velocity.

This guide details how to significantly reduce the noise signature of a .22 LR pistol using a suppressor and subsonic ammunition. The presenter, demonstrating high authority, explains the physics behind suppressor function and the importance of ammunition choice for optimal quietness. The video culminates in a direct comparison showing the suppressed pistol is quieter than a compound bow.

This video debunks a politician's claim about the weight and caliber of an AR-15. The speaker, demonstrating expert authority, clarifies that an AR-15 typically weighs around 6.5 lbs, not the equivalent of 10 moving boxes. It also explains that while some rare AR-15 variants can chamber .50 Beowulf, the common calibers are much smaller, like .223 Remington or 5.56 NATO, and not the .50 BMG.

This video provides an expert-level analysis of 12-gauge shotgun ballistics, featuring insights from Jim Harmer. It details the destructive potential of a 12-gauge load in ballistics gel, highlighting the wide wound channel created by numerous pellets. The content includes a breakdown of shotgun shell components and emphasizes safety warnings for viewers.

This video from Backfire offers an expert assessment of a pre-owned Browning X-Bolt Pro Featherlight in 300 RUM, highlighting its resale value and the significant recoil associated with the caliber in a lightweight platform. The instructor emphasizes understanding why high-end firearms might be resold, particularly due to chambering and its impact on shootability.
