I’ve had the same problem with several calibers. A friend had one hang up on his 1911. Great video sir.

Midway has it for $9.99 a box right now. That is close 2019 fmj $

If its crap? ITS CRAP! And now we know! Thanks for the review!

Why even make a hollow point if you don't drive it fast enough to expand?

Always get the non-tactical version unless you're running suppressed. It's just a superior model.

Hornady custom is known as a controlled expansion round made for penetration!

You’re just antisemitic

Deinum?

What did you make that ballistic gel out of swamp water

Winchester, Remington, Federal, Hornady, and Speer all make 147 grain JHP ammo that I like and use. Which I buy depends on which is available.

I have the imi 124gr +p and the 115gr standard and after seeing all the videos i now carry gold dot 115gr +p+ in my EDC.

It's purpose is to harm the recipient. Works. Stop being a weiner.

A Mossberg pump 500 series or a Maverick 88 with a mini-clip from OPSoL (easy to install or remove) solves the feeding problems.

Always been partial to light for caliber bullets in 40 Smith. Not super light, but fast enough for good expansion.

I have one it is very well balanced

Damn, I almost pulled the trigger at midway for this ammo

Thanks

Had 2 of them i like them great throwing axe 7:38

I have the same brand in 9mm 124 grain +p. That's the ticket.

One round makes a review? These look like the old Winchester Black Talons and sort of not as old Winchester Rangers in which I have a shit ton of Rangers when they started bonding them in 45 ACP and 40 S&W and I have a good amount of Black Talons in 40 S&W and I found out that the Talons failed to open or shed the jacket one out of every 4 or 5 rounds and the Rangers about the same because all Winchester did was shed the black Teflon coating on the Talons and call them Rangers BUT they did make a wide open and "Pretty" bullet when they opened as advertised but then so does the Norma MHP but I don't carry any MHPs in any of my carry guns but at $4 for a box of 20 rounds I bought quite a few for "Just In Case" or as we say in the hills and "Hollers" of rural Ohio JIC I have kicked around the idea of getting an AR "Pistol" in 9mm with 10" to 14" barrel but put it off when the Glock mag or 5.56/223 insert was the options and may have waited to long as I'm not sure the higher cost of today is worth it but it still seems like a good idea to have one for a lot of different reasons but right now I am trying to track down a Beretta A300 Patrol in tiger stripe along with an aftermarket barrel clamp instead of the Magpul polymer barrel clamp. Ahhh the "CHOICES" fill my head and I tend to drag my feet as of late because I was diagnosed with cancer in April 2023 and next week is my 8th and last week of an 8 week radiation and 6 week chemo treatment and even though my chemo treatments ended on Oct. 3rd 2023 I seem to still have some remnants of "Chemo Brain" lingering in my head and I am 30 Lbs lighter than when I started treatment because every type of food tastes like a dog shit popsickle when I put it in my mouth

I've got a CZ P10C that HATES this stuff and it eats everything. Winchester white box JHP, no problem. This stuff wont even go into battery. Hangs on the edge of the feed ramp every time you rack the slide. I have other guns that will shoot it but not the CZ. I'll not be buying more when it's gone.

I just bought 3 boxes to replace old carry ammo. I trust it. Thanks for your review.

I have one in all black as a companion to my FN SCAR 17 in all black. Such a beast. Zero malfunctions. 15 rounds of .45. Stainless steel slide with corrosion resistant finish and polymer frame makes it a superb all weather weapon. Rain, snow, salt, no problem. Got a Sig 320 pistol kydex that fits the FNX pretty well. Not my EDC as I would carry 1911 Commander .45, Springfield SA35 (Browning HP clone), or my HK VP9 carry better. But it's my outdoor hiking, camping, and zombie apocalypse pistol.

It's fine, cheap as hell stash ammo that's not ball

Do u hv to change spring weight when shooting lighter grains

I just got some of these to change up plus the low flash for the house. I usually carry ranger bonded or bonded golden sabers.

I just bought one last week. I have other more expensive guns such as Bergara B14r, CZ 455, Tikka T1x and some others. The scope is a Burris in 4.5-14x42. It is a tack driver at 50 yards with anything CCI. I shot the cheapest first, the CCI Blazer, then CCI Standard Velocity, and lastly CCI Standard Velocity Target. They all grouped extremely well at 50. CCI out of this rifle was competing with my Bergara B14r and the CZ455. I hate to admit it, but the Ruger RPR was outshooting my Tikka T1X with all brands of ammo that I was testing that day. In addition to the CCI's it included Lapua Center X, SK Biathlon, SK Pistol Match, Aguila Super Extra, Remington Golden Bullet, American Eagle (red box Federal), and Federal Game Shock. It was hanging in there against the Bergara and the CZ. Not lying.

Too many uhhhhs and ummms.

As far as the Freyr being dull, CRKT says they send it that way for safety. Mine is staked and pinned like yours and after sharpening it I tested on a 3 foot tall volunteer sapling and the head almost came off after the second strike on the sapling. It Never stayed in place after I tried to secure it. We will see if the new handle will fix it.

Hornady has a chart that shows the effective velocity for the various XTPs: I guarantee that 1100 fps as tested will be in the range. Penetration can be, in some cases, more desirable than velocity or expansion. 400+ ft/lbs is nothing to sneer at from a SD standpoint, either. Cheers! P.S. I can load these to 1250+ fps with Longshot per Hodgdons load data.

Been viewing your videos and they're really helpful . I like what I see with these Barnes rounds , the expansion seems more than what you'd expect from just about all the hollow points out there . And the penetration was definitely sufficient . Yep , I think I found the carry round for my Glock 22 . Your videos are great , GOOD JOB !

XTPs' are notoriously deep penetrators with poor expansion unless the velocity is adequate . I suspect that the velocity printed on the box is probably the speed that round needs to perform as expected . It seems that ammo manufacturers don't consider testing these rounds through std. length barrels . I can't think of any handgun in .40S&W , except for maybe the S&W M&P , that comes with a longer than 4" barrel . Anyhow, great video , it really helps us out here to see someone test this ammunition . This way we know what to expect . Thank you very much !

First of all , thanks for evaluating this ammo . I was considering buying this same ammunition 'cause I like the 165gr loads for the .40S&W . I don't know what happened here . I think you're right that it was the denim that clogged the hollow point and prevented it from expanding . Otherwise , the only thing I can imagine is that maybe the jacket is too thick , or there's not enough velocity .Either way , like you , this round is not on my list anymore . Thanks for the video !

At the end of the day, shot placement is everything…..

The comparison of the G22 to the FNX45 wasn’t apples to apples at all the G21 is much thicker then the G22 and is much more comparable to the FNX 45

These were made to feed reliably not expand. I stopped a black bear with one shot so I'd say they are more than enough for self defense. I'd say even a fmj is more than enough for self defense but of course there's a reason they make hp.

only way this would expand is to shoot it at AR500.. Have 4 boxes that I simply use as range ammo.

Looks an awefult lot like my black talons that I run in my carry weapons. Impossible to find. But I have a small horde or it.

This is what I load in my MP5 clone for the "Zombie Apocalypse". Its not an HST, but for what it does and for the price its a great option. Out of an 8.7" barrel, it performs very well and after 420 rounds Ive had only one FTE/FTL(double feed) and that happened on the 47th round(2nd mag of 14 tried) and never again. Started with 2500 rounds; 1500 rounds in storage and 580 rounds for practice.

I use these and gold dot I prefer the pdx1 just my preference tho

What is your barrel length?

This looks quite useful. Going for about $60, now. Hmmm... Think they come dull to save customer money.

The head looks like a Berserker's head. The Freya has a flat top head to it.

Dude you might benefit from a script.

Well done, thank you sir.

Was thinking of getting one of these but now there equivalent of $120 to me in the UK £100!!!! That's gransfors bruks money for something that does look cool but may need work and future work!! 🤔

Black dot or black tip indicates that it’s +P

BETWEEN THESE AND HORNADY CRITICAL DEFENSE 9MM WHICH WOULD YOU CHOOSE AND WHY

What about getting a longer shaft. Like maybe 22”? Perhaps could 2 hand it
