What round(s) do you want to see in ballistic gelatin?

[Zen21Tao]

In all seriousness I would have to agree with others that toss a vote out for 10mm. I really would like to see how my Glock 29 would compare against my Sig P239 (.40S&W) or any of my .45ACPs.

I'd actually like to see exactly what the +P loaded MagSafe Defender 7.62x25 Tokarev round would do. Odd little thing, THEIR website shows it having the velocity of a rifle round out of a Tok pistol, but I'm still not convinced of the power of pellet-loaded prefragmented ammo. It's just that the combination of THAT speed and that design, (rather than the Tok round's chance of overpenetration) who knows?

Their website claims 2,120fps/519 ft-lbs from a Tok pistol. I'd want to see, IF that is true, what that'd do.

Other than that, .45 ACP Winchester Ranger RA45T.

10mm sounds like a lot of fun, but I still would need a gun and ammo. I choose to test the .44 Special, in part, because the ballistics appear to be simlar to a factory 10mm ...

I'd like to see some 10mm testing done.

Seriously, I can't throw a 10mm bullet hard enought to get it to expand. I will need a 10mm gun and ammo for that...

JE223:
The information on your website required a lot of time and effort. Thanks for that contribution.

As you posted, 5.45 x 39 is on the site. It changed direction and went out the side just like in live targets.

Where are you located? I have 10mm in both Glock 20 and T/C Contender to use if you're near middle Tennessee or southwestern Kentucky.

I'v never seen anyone gel test a .41 mag

 

[Nashmack]

I'd like to see some more rifle calibers, espescially 7.62x54R, .303 Brit, 8x57, etc etc etc...

Thank you everybody for your feedback. It looks as though the 45-70 is the winner of the poll.

I have an 18" barreled gun that can fire the +P loads in 45-70. I will post a poll with the rounds available to me locally.

Thank you.

But, but, but . . . .

I'm personally disappointed that we weren't given the opportunity to vote for the 5.5mm Velo Dog cartridge with a variety of custom ammo. How about a lathe-turned solid impervium boattail hollow point? And a frangible load (melt the lead out of Hornet bullets and replaced it with #12 shot in Teflon solution.)
