CATI Level 3 Armor vs Lehigh Controlled Chaos

This video focuses on testing Lehigh Defense 55gr Controlled Chaos bullets. The demonstration involves evaluating these specific projectiles using two different test powders: Ramshot X-Terminator and CFE 223. The content appears to be a range test or review of ammunition performance, likely within the context of rifle calibers.

This video features a comparison of an AK-47 rifle engaging a Level III ballistic plate manufactured by UARM. The description provides a direct link to the UARM SA3U Level III UHMWPE plate, indicating a focus on the performance of this specific armor against a common rifle caliber. The content likely demonstrates the penetration capabilities (or lack thereof) of the AK-47 round against the UARM plate.

This YouTube video conducts a curiosity-driven, non-scientific test comparing the performance of 6.5 Creedmoor ammunition against RTS Level III steel armor. While the armor is not specifically rated for this caliber, the test results show it held up "fantastic." The video emphasizes that it was recorded on a private range under professional supervision and includes standard disclaimers about the risks involved and the educational/entertainment purpose of the content. The description also promotes the creator's social media and Patreon.

This video analyzes the Controlled Chaos version 3 bullet for the 300 Blackout cartridge. The description details the bullet's innovative two-part design, where the front section fragments into petals upon impact to create a large wound cavity, while the rear section maintains integrity for deep penetration. It also highlights design enhancements, including increased base weight and precise ogive diameter adjustments, aimed at improving accuracy and terminal ballistics. Performance metrics like ballistic coefficient, test barrel length, muzzle energy, and velocity at 100 yards are provided.

This video showcases a ballistic gel test of Lehigh Defense's 125-grain Controlled Chaos bullet in 300 HAM'R caliber. Fired from an 18-inch barrel at 2440 feet per second into FBI protocol gel, the test utilized a high-speed camera at 4000 frames per second to capture the bullet's performance. The description highlights the Controlled Chaos design, which features rapid expansion with petal separation for a massive energy spike, while the solid base ensures deep penetration. This results in a dramatic wound cavity designed for quick incapacitation. The video also includes links to Wilson Combat and Lehigh Defense websites, their newsletter, and social media channels.

This video focuses on testing the 145gr Lehigh Defense Controlled Chaos bullet. It also continues an examination of Starline Brass for the .308 Winchester caliber, and utilizes Ramshot X-Terminator powder in the process. The content appears to be a range test and review of specific ammunition and reloading components for a rifle caliber.

This video features a former Navy SEAL, Jeff Gonzales, providing expert feedback on a home defense AR-15 build. He critiques the rifle's accessories, particularly the sling, and emphasizes the importance of reliable optics and the benefits of a suppressor for indoor use. The discussion highlights practical considerations for effective home defense firearms.

The Beretta ARX-160, showcased at SHOT Show 2011, is a modular, piston-driven rifle featuring ambidextrous controls and tool-less disassembly. Its design emphasizes adaptability with multiple sling points, interchangeable magazine releases, and a quick-change barrel system. While currently limited to military/defense use, future law enforcement and civilian variants are planned.

Fostech unveiled a 20-round .50 BMG drum magazine for Barrett M107 and 82A1 rifles, constructed from billet machined aluminum. They also introduced the Fostech Rader, a lightweight .308 rifle featuring a proprietary magnesium aluminum alloy and ambidextrous controls. The drum mag is priced at $1599 with a Q3/Q4 availability, while the Rader rifle is expected around $3000 with a Q4 release.

Testing a Remington 158gr SJHP .357 Magnum load from a 16-inch Rossi M92 reveals impressive performance, achieving 1709.6 fps. The round exhibited significant fragmentation and penetration of 20.1 inches in ballistic gel, behaving more like a rifle cartridge due to its velocity. This challenges typical handgun round terminal ballistics expectations.
