This video from Brownells, featuring Caleb, provides a ballistic comparison of Hornady Critical Defense .223 Remington ammunition against standard 55-grain Full Metal Jacket (FMJ) rounds. The testing, conducted at Big Spring Shooting Complex using ballistic gel, highlights the superior terminal performance of the Critical Defense round, demonstrating a significantly larger and more effective wound channel. The presenter argues for its value in self-defense scenarios due to its rapid energy dump and stopping power on unarmored targets, contrasting it with the over-penetration and minimal damage potential of FMJ rounds.

This video features a review and ballistic testing of a Ruger No. 1 rifle chambered in .458 Lott. The presenter explores the rifle's design, the history and power of the .458 Lott cartridge, and its potential effectiveness for home defense. Ballistic tests include penetration through cinder blocks and White Claw cans, as well as extensive testing on ballistic gel torsos to demonstrate terminal ballistics.

This video tests the penetration power of a .50 BMG round fired from a Serbu RN-50 rifle into approximately 40 stacked phone books. The Hornady 750-grain A-MAX projectile successfully penetrated 26 phone books before being recovered, showing significant deformation. The test highlights the destructive capability of the .50 caliber round.

This video provides an expert-level ballistic gel test of Winchester Defense 10mm AUTO 180 Grain JHP ammunition, conducted by an experienced reviewer. The test compares performance from a Glock 20 (4.6" barrel) and a Glock 40 (6" barrel), detailing chronograph readings, penetration depths, and projectile condition after impact. The reviewer concludes that this specific Winchester Defense load is underperforming compared to expectations for 10mm and even some .40 S&W loads.

This video showcases the extremely rare 7150 lever action rifle, believed to be the largest caliber lever action ever made. The presenter, Scott from Kentucky Ballistics, demonstrates its immense power through various tests, including shooting at steel, ballistic gel, an armored truck, and water jugs. The rifle fires a massive 870-grain, 70-caliber round, originally a Winchester prototype from 1888 that never went into production. The El Romano Rifle Co. recreated this behemoth, highlighting its significant recoil and destructive capability.

This video features Edwin Sarkissian, an experienced firearms instructor, conducting a unique bullet penetration test. He uses 12 Ozark Trail 12-inch cast iron skillets to determine how many rounds from various calibers and firearms, including 9mm, .45 ACP, 500 S&W Magnum, 7.62x39mm, 5.56mm, 5.7x28mm, and 12 Gauge slugs, can penetrate the cookware. The results offer practical insights into the ballistic performance of different ammunition types against a common household item.

This video from Edwin Sarkissian provides an expert-level demonstration of the Serbu BFG-50A rifle's capability against a railroad track. Sarkissian, a high-level firearms enthusiast, showcases the .50 BMG caliber's power with various ammunition types, including the specialized Raufoss Mk 211 Mod 0, highlighting its penetration through thick steel. The content offers valuable insights into terminal ballistics and the performance of heavy caliber rounds.

This video demonstrates a unique application of the X Products Can Cannon, a gas-operated launcher compatible with AR-15/M16 lowers, to launch an M67-style fragmentation grenade using .223 Blanks. Expert experimentalist Edwin Sarkissian showcases the process of loading and firing the device towards a frozen lake, highlighting the launcher's ability to hold the grenade's spoon in place until firing. The demonstration results in a significant explosion and ice shatter upon impact.

This guide details a ballistic test comparing a .50 Cal Spotter round against a 1.25-inch thick bulletproof glass panel using a Serbu BFG-50A rifle. The test, conducted by firearms enthusiast Edwin Sarkissian, demonstrates the significant destructive potential of specialized .50 BMG ammunition, highlighting differences in impact effects between incendiary spotter rounds and standard FMJ rounds. The expert-level demonstration emphasizes the importance of understanding ammunition types and their performance against protective materials.
