Ammunition Tests
Tests on various aspects of ammunition and its ballistic performance.
Testing the precision of Hornady 5.56 x 45 75 gr. Superformance Match from an HK MR556A1 and comparing it to 69 gr. Sierra Tipped Match King.
Testing the accuracy of 5.45 x 39mm TelaAmmo 65 gr. FMJ from an Arsenal SLR-104FR and comparing it to 69 gr. LCW (Lugansk) and 60 gr. Vympel Golden Tiger.
Testing the accuracy of 7.62 x 39mm TelaAmmo 124 gr. FMJ from a WASR-10/63 and comparing it to Barnaul Silver Bear and Bulgarian Arsenal ammunition.
Testing the effects that bullet setback has using 10 rounds of 9mm 124 gr. Sig Sauer V-Crown handloads fired from a Sig Sauer P320. From there, discussing pressure buildup and some methods of diagnosing pressure problems by looking at muzzle velocity and spent cases.
Testing the accuracy of 7.62 x 39mm Arsenal 122 gr. FMJ from a WASR-10/63 and comparing it to Barnaul Silver Bear.
Originally meant to be a test of the precision of True Velocity's .308 Winchster 168 gr. Nosler Custom Competition polymer case ammunition. However, due to cold temperatures (at least I think), this video ended up being more about some potential issues with the ammunition.

Testing the terminal performance of Vympel Golden Tiger in both .223 and 5.45 x 39mm using a 20% NATO Clear Ballistics ballistic gelatin block, as well as answering a question I had received in a comment on whether the .223 Vympel Golden Tiger bullet contains an air pocket.

Testing the accuracy of Barnaul's 55 grain steel-cased FMJ .223 ammo through an AR-15 with an 18" Ballistic Advantage barrel (1:7 twist, 5,56 chamber) and Primary Arms 1-8 ACSS scope.
Test of the accuracy and terminal performance of Lugansk 69 grain FMJ military surplus ammunition for the 5.45x39mm. Terminal performance is being tested using a 20% NATO ballistic gelatin block with the round being fired from 7 yards away out of a SLR-104FR (Bulgarian semi-auto AKS-74N).
