Firearm Accuracy Test | AR-15, Glock, Long Range, and More

This video mythbusts the effectiveness of shooting from a moving vehicle. While hitting a target at 20 mph with a rifle proved difficult and inconsistent, even with frangible ammunition, the experiment demonstrated that with a pistol at 15 mph, multiple hits are achievable. However, the instructor emphasizes that this is not a recommended tactic due to limited ammunition, the impracticality of the speed in a real gunfight, and the potential for weapon malfunctions and collateral damage.

This video provides a comprehensive comparison of the 6mm ARC and 5.56x45mm NATO cartridges, focusing on their performance in various shooting scenarios. It details recoil differences, terminal ballistics through ballistic gel and pork shoulders, and long-range accuracy out to 1000 yards. The content also touches on the emerging role of 6mm ARC in special operations and its practicality for civilian use, contrasting it with the established dominance of 5.56.

This YouTube video, titled "Push yourself with small targets," aims to encourage viewers to improve their marksmanship by engaging with smaller targets. The description highlights a promotional offer for a "postcard steel gong target 3x6," indicating a focus on practical shooting applications and target practice equipment. The content likely involves shooting drills and target acquisition exercises, emphasizing precision and skill development. It appeals to shooters looking to enhance their accuracy and challenge themselves at the range.

This video compares the accuracy of .22 LR ammunition against the 6.5 Creedmoor cartridge. It highlights that while .22 LR can be accurate at 100 yards, its lower ballistic coefficient makes it less efficient in flight compared to cartridges like the 6.5 Creedmoor. The test involved a Volquartsen Custom rifle with a 25x optic for the .22 LR and a Ruger American with a Vortex optic for the 6.5 Creedmoor.

This video details the comprehensive load development process for a 300 Norma Magnum rifle aimed at achieving one-mile accuracy. Lead Firearms Instructor Gavin from Ultimate Reloader guides viewers through selecting premium components, meticulously testing various powder charges with Berger 245gr hybrid bullets, and validating the optimal load at extended ranges. The process emphasizes achieving low standard deviation and tight group sizes, culminating in successful hits at 706 yards, 0.8 miles, and ultimately, one mile.

This video details the meticulous process of developing a precision load for the 25x47 Lapua wildcat cartridge. Hosts Gavin Gear and F-Class John share their journey from initial discouraging results to achieving sub-quarter-minute groups with a focus on small powder charge increments and careful observation of group characteristics. They highlight the importance of Alpha brass and demonstrate the cartridge's capability at extended ranges, offering valuable insights for handloaders seeking peak accuracy.

This guide, presented by experienced shooter CajunBoyJake, demonstrates the superior stopping power of a 12-gauge shotgun with #00 buckshot over a 9mm pistol for home defense scenarios. Through live-fire comparison, it highlights the significant difference in immediate incapacitation potential, advising viewers to prioritize shotguns for this role.

CajunBoyJake, a knowledgeable practitioner, advocates for a defensive home defense strategy prioritizing cover and communication over aggressive room clearing. He highlights that the practical reach difference between a shotgun and a handgun in a defensive posture is less significant than overall length suggests. The guide emphasizes securing a position, calling 911, and holding a choke point if movement is required.

This guide details the bump fire technique for semi-automatic rifles, as demonstrated by CajunBoyJake. It explains how to use recoil and finger tension to achieve rapid firing rates without full-auto conversion. The technique involves using a belt loop for consistent backward pressure while pushing the rifle forward, allowing the trigger to 'bump' against the finger with each recoil cycle. Proper safety and understanding of semi-automatic function are emphasized.

This video, presented by CajunBoyJake, directly compares the effectiveness of a 9mm handgun versus a 12 Gauge shotgun for home defense. Through live demonstrations using a Glock 17 and Winchester Super X 00 Buckshot on a simulated target, the video visually illustrates the significant terminal ballistics advantage of the shotgun, strongly advocating for its use in home defense scenarios over handguns.
