Gimmick Or Good To Go? .223 Rem Gorilla 62gr Controlled Chaos Gel Test

This video from Tática Civil explores five distinct types of .223 caliber ammunition, highlighting their specific performance characteristics. The host, demonstrating expertise in firearms and ballistics, covers rounds like the Hornady V-Max for varmint expansion, 5.56 tracer rounds for visibility, steel-cased options with a caution for AR-15 wear, M855 green tip penetrators for light armor, and Colt Defense hollow points for self-defense reliability. A mystery round is also presented for viewer identification.

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 focuses on testing the 62-grain Lehigh Controlled Chaos bullet specifically chambered in the .223 Remington caliber. The experiment utilizes Ramshot TAC as the propellant. The content likely involves evaluating the performance and characteristics of this particular ammunition in a range setting, offering insights for shooters interested in specialized bullet designs for their .223 Remington firearms.

This video provides a controlled gel test for the .300 AAC Blackout version of Gorilla's 110gr Controlled Chaos ammunition. Shot from an 8-inch barrel AR-15 platform, the test aims to compare its performance against a previously tested .223 version. Key metrics like penetration (21.2 inches), retained weight (96.8gr), and expansion characteristics are presented, alongside detailed velocity data from a high-speed camera. The video also references an ARFCOM thread for further discussion.

This video provides an in-depth analysis of the lethality of .300 Blackout ammunition, comparing supersonic and subsonic rounds through ballistic gel and meat target testing. The expert assessment highlights the caliber's versatility and effectiveness, particularly with specialized projectile designs for subsonic applications. It concludes that .300 Blackout is a superior replacement for traditional submachine gun rounds.

This video tests the penetration power of various calibers through paper, ranging from .22 LR to a .50 BMG sniper rifle. Key findings include the .50 BMG penetrating over 3,000 sheets, while a 9mm round stopped at 500 sheets. The .44 Magnum surprisingly penetrated fewer sheets than the 9mm, possibly due to bullet expansion. The .223 Remington from an AR-15 demonstrated significant penetration, exceeding 2,000 sheets.

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.
