HPR 150 Grain - 300BLK Gel Test

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 review of the PSA OLCAN Bullpup in 300BLK highlights its modularity, built around the Jakl upper.
