This video provides an update on the Ruger RXM, focusing on the integration of Magpul's EHG grip modules. The instructor, demonstrating significant experience, highlights the ease of swapping grip modules by removing two pins. The comparison to Glock models and the availability of different Magpul frame sizes (full-size and Glock 26) are key takeaways. Ruger factory updates, including threaded barrel models, are also briefly covered.

This video from Kentucky Ballistics delves into the history and performance of Winchester's controversial Black Talon ammunition. Host Scott debunks myths about the ammunition being banned, explaining it was voluntarily withdrawn from the civilian market due to public pressure. Through extensive ballistic gel and body armor testing across various calibers, the video demonstrates the actual penetration and expansion capabilities of Black Talons, concluding they were not armor-piercing for handguns and were later rebranded as Ranger SXT.

This video provides an expert-level ballistic gel test of Underwood Xtreme Defender 9mm ammunition, specifically the 68-grain +P and 90-grain +P+ variants. The host, demonstrating high authority through detailed analysis and professional equipment, evaluates their terminal performance fired from an HK SP5 with an 8.9-inch barrel. The test highlights extreme velocities and deep penetration, offering valuable data for self-defense ammunition selection.

This review of EcoBullet 115gr 9mm ammunition highlights its focus on health and sustainability, featuring lead-free primers and total metal jackets to reduce lead exposure. Ballistic testing across five barrel lengths (3" to 11.14") shows consistent velocities, with the Draco 9S (11.14" barrel) achieving 1,283 fps. While on the softer side of energy, the primary advantage is significantly reduced lead poisoning risks for shooters and the environment.

This short video showcases a Glock 19 pistol, presented with satirical and irreverent commentary by the host from Broke Boy's Manifesto. The content includes a brief shooting demonstration at a steel target, highlighting the firearm's perceived 'perfection' through on-screen text. The host's persona suggests a knowledgeable firearms enthusiast engaging with common stereotypes.

This video provides a comprehensive overview of the Shadow Systems XR920 in Coyote Brown, demonstrating its setup with defensive ammunition and accessories. The presenter, an experienced firearm reviewer, guides viewers through unboxing, magazine loading, suppressor attachment, and a live-fire session utilizing a red dot sight. The demonstration highlights the firearm's tactical capabilities and readiness for defensive use.

This video demonstrates a successful method for removing a severely stuck case from an AR-10 barrel using a high-pressure grease gun and hydraulic oil. Despite a previous gunsmith's failure, the technique involving a custom adapter and specialized grease gun achieved extraction. Post-removal inspection and range testing confirmed the barrel's integrity and sub-MOA accuracy.

This video provides a comprehensive guide to reloading ammunition for the Thompson Center Compass chambered in 300 Winchester Magnum. It meticulously covers each stage of the reloading process, from an introduction and detailed discussion of components and equipment to the practical steps of brass resizing and preparation, load data analysis, setting overall length (OAL), priming, powder charging, and bullet seating. The video culminates in a range test to evaluate the reloaded ammunition, followed by a brass inspection and group review, and concludes with future plans. The content is highly educational for anyone looking to start reloading this specific caliber and rifle.

The Vortex Diamondback Tactical 6-24x50 offers excellent value for its $400 price point, featuring First Focal Plane (FFP) capability and a usable EBR-2C reticle. While it shows some chromatic aberration and has slightly mushy turrets compared to higher-end models, its tracking accuracy is comparable to the more expensive Strike Eagle. It's a strong contender for budget-conscious long-range shooters, though FFP might be less ideal for hunting than SFP.

This video explores the experimental firing of .22 airgun pellets using .22 caliber nail gun blanks, achieving velocities over 2200 fps with Level 4 loads. Despite some pellet instability at 50 yards, accuracy remained surprisingly tight, demonstrating the potential for this unconventional projectile method. The host emphasizes proper muzzle-loading technique for rifling engagement and uses a chronograph for precise data collection.
