308 Win - 168gr Sierra Match King vs Hornady Match

This video tests ten popular deer rifle calibers using ballistic gel to evaluate terminal performance. The .308 Winchester and 7mm Remington Magnum demonstrated excellent penetration and expansion, while the 6.5 Creedmoor fragmented significantly. The .300 Winchester Magnum over-penetrated, and the .243 Winchester showed the weakest performance.

This video investigates claims about the terminal ballistics of a 30-06 round allegedly used in an incident involving Charlie Kirk. Through ballistics gel and simulated tissue/bone testing, the host demonstrates the significant energy transfer and penetration capabilities of the 30-06, particularly with FMJ ammunition. The tests highlight the potential for massive internal damage and bone shattering, questioning the reported lack of an exit wound.

This YouTube video, titled "Flintlock vs 308 #tctop5 #tcarms #2", appears to be a comparison video featuring two distinct firearms: a Flintlock rifle and a rifle chambered in .308 caliber. The description is minimal, but the title strongly suggests a head-to-head evaluation or demonstration of these firearms, likely focusing on aspects such as performance, historical context, or practical application. The inclusion of hashtags like #tcarms and #tctop5 indicates it's part of a series and likely from a channel focused on firearms content.

This guide details a practical method for testing different Black Hills .308 Winchester loads to determine optimal accuracy for a specific rifle. It emphasizes the importance of controlled range conditions, including barrel cooling and consistent shooting techniques, to identify the best-performing ammunition. The analysis highlights how bullet weight and design can influence point of impact and group tightness, with the 178gr ELD-X ultimately producing the tightest group in this test.

This expert-level analysis ranks seven highly accurate hunting calibers for 2026, drawing on data from match shooters and ballistic experts. It details the origins, performance characteristics, and hunting suitability of calibers like the 6.5 Creedmoor, 6mm Creedmoor, .308 Winchester, 6.5 PRC, .280 Ackley Improved, 7mm Remington Magnum, and .243 Winchester, highlighting their strengths in accuracy, recoil management, and effective range for various game.

This video demonstrates the initial testing of an Aero Precision .30 caliber suppressor on a .308 AR-10 platform. The speaker notes the suppression is 'not bad' but encounters a significant malfunction (double feed/stovepipe), correctly diagnosing it as a potential need for gas block adjustment due to the suppressor's backpressure. The review highlights practical field testing and troubleshooting from an experienced shooter.

This video demonstrates a successful method for removing a severely stuck case from an AR-10 barrel using a high-pressure grease gun and hydraulic oil. Despite a previous gunsmith's failure, the technique involving a custom adapter and specialized grease gun achieved extraction. Post-removal inspection and range testing confirmed the barrel's integrity and sub-MOA accuracy.

This video provides a comprehensive guide to reloading ammunition for the Thompson Center Compass chambered in 300 Winchester Magnum. It meticulously covers each stage of the reloading process, from an introduction and detailed discussion of components and equipment to the practical steps of brass resizing and preparation, load data analysis, setting overall length (OAL), priming, powder charging, and bullet seating. The video culminates in a range test to evaluate the reloaded ammunition, followed by a brass inspection and group review, and concludes with future plans. The content is highly educational for anyone looking to start reloading this specific caliber and rifle.

The Vortex Diamondback Tactical 6-24x50 offers excellent value for its $400 price point, featuring First Focal Plane (FFP) capability and a usable EBR-2C reticle. While it shows some chromatic aberration and has slightly mushy turrets compared to higher-end models, its tracking accuracy is comparable to the more expensive Strike Eagle. It's a strong contender for budget-conscious long-range shooters, though FFP might be less ideal for hunting than SFP.

This video explores the experimental firing of .22 airgun pellets using .22 caliber nail gun blanks, achieving velocities over 2200 fps with Level 4 loads. Despite some pellet instability at 50 yards, accuracy remained surprisingly tight, demonstrating the potential for this unconventional projectile method. The host emphasizes proper muzzle-loading technique for rifling engagement and uses a chronograph for precise data collection.
