This video tests the newer 80-grain ARX Inceptor ammunition, addressing previous issues with the 74-grain version. The testing involved multiple firearms, including a Walther PPS, Walther P99, Sig MPX, and Glock 19, with velocity measurements and gel testing to evaluate performance. The results indicate improved consistency and the advertised 'twirling wound cavity' in gel.

In gel testing, the 80-grain ARX Inceptor demonstrated the advertised 'twirling wound cavity.' Recovered rounds were found to be scored but not scarred, indicating the projectile maintained its integrity during penetration.

Which firearms were used to test the 80-grain ARX Inceptor?

The 80-grain ARX Inceptor was tested in a 3.2-inch barreled Walther PPS, a 4-inch barreled Walther P99, a Sig MPX, and a Glock 19. The Walther PPS, typically sensitive to lighter rounds, still performed adequately.

What was the velocity consistency of the 80-grain ARX Inceptor?

The 80-grain ARX Inceptor showed good velocity consistency across the tested firearms, with only a 50 feet per second variation noted. This indicates improved reliability compared to earlier versions.
