This video presents a ballistic gel test of Black Hills Ammunition's 155-grain JHP .40 S&W self-defense rounds. The instructor, with apparent experience in firearms testing, evaluates performance from both a Glock 27 (3.5-inch barrel) and a Glock 22 (4.5-inch barrel). While not top-tier, the ammunition demonstrated adequate expansion and penetration, particularly from the longer barrel, suggesting it's a viable option for concealed carry or self-defense.

This comprehensive review details a ballistic gel test of Browning X-Point Defense .40 S&W ammunition, conducted by the Tools&Targets host. The expert analysis includes chronograph data from Glock 27 and Glock 22 pistols, penetration depth, expansion measurements, and projectile weight retention. The host provides an objective assessment of the ammunition's performance in self-defense scenarios, comparing it to advertised specifications and other available options.

This video provides an expert-level review of Federal Premium HST 147 Grain +P 9mm ammunition, featuring objective ballistic gel testing. The host, demonstrating high authority, uses a LabRadar chronograph and standardized protocols to measure muzzle velocity, penetration depth, and projectile expansion from both a Smith & Wesson M&P Shield EZ and a Canik METE MC9. The results confirm the HST's consistent performance and effectiveness for self-defense applications.

This video presents a ballistic gel test of Scorpion 10mm 180 Grain JHP ammunition, comparing its performance from a Glock 29 (3.8-inch barrel) and a Glock 20 (4.6-inch barrel). The instructor, Tools&Targets, critiques the ammunition's claimed velocity and energy, deeming it "weak 10mm" compared to premium loads. Despite this, the gel test shows good expansion and penetration from both firearms, with the Glock 20 achieving slightly better results.
