QUICK NOTE: I learned during the production of this video that the bullet "grain" refers to its mass, and not the grain measurement of the gunpowder. Apologies for misspeaking during the video!
I appreciate the fact you say this. As someone who grew up around firearms and everything, I also assumed that’s what it was too. Learned maybe a year or two ago that it was bullet weight and not powder and went “huh.. I’ve been super wrong my whole life” lol
Just in case it isn't mentioned elsewhere, the reason for the secondary detonation in the gel is from the collapsing gasses. This is the same thing as a diesel engine combustion. The compression of the bubble collapsing compresses the gasses enough for ignition, and the fuel is either raw powder or the gel itself.
This is the cleanest and most clear slow motion footage of gel ballistics I’ve ever seen. I’ve scoured the internet and TH-cam looking at these videos, to the point where my wife now hates TH-cam. This was amazing. I hope to see more of these ballistic tests at this quality. Subscribed and liked, and left a comment for the algorithm gods. Top Notch fellas.
I've seen slower more clearer, but this was pretty good. Another trick I like that they don't tell you about is to rewatch the slowmo parts at 1/4 speed.
I'm surprised by how quickly the fluted bullet destabilizes; those things are supposed to derive their wounding potential from hydraulically displacing material, not wobbling around and tumbling. Would be interesting to see how the G9 bullet design fairs in the same kind of test. Great job on these videos, this is really cool to see!
Your channel will grow tremendously if you keep up the quality of your videos like this. Amazing work, would love to see every grain of federal hst 9mm if ever possible.
That certainly looked like the Leheigh projectile that Underwood uses in Xtreme Defender. Military Arms Channel has a great comparison of 90 grain +P vs +P+ No high speed (that was cool) but very in-depth.
Just a heads up less grain weight bullets normally always go faster and incase you was confused the grain weight is the bullet weight not the powder charge
You’ve earned my sub. The footage is the clearest and best slow motion I’ve seen to date. Coupled with the amazing sound effect it’s a pure thrill to watch. 🦅🇺🇸
Wow i cant thank you enough for providing this insane quality video for free. Please try the liberty defense 9mm hollow point traveling at 2000 fps vs a 45 acp round. a lot of people think a heavier slow bullet does more damage than a fast light bullet. I believe a fast bullet is more deadly.
@@tihruytssgjjvsavcxtbvhj3429 overpenetration is useless because it means the force of the bullet is not quickly put into the target to wrangle the organs and deal fatal damage. A straight pass through will not do much. also, the bullet can end up in a innocent civilian.
@@BallisticHighSpeed you are the most amazing channel on TH-cam. I absolutely love you. You truly are the best. In a few years you will reach more than 1 million subscribers
Somehow faster with less grains? That's very normal. With everything else being equal, a lighter projectile will have more velocity. 1,000 horsepower with push a Miata a heck of a lot faster than it will push a 3/4 ton 4 door pick-up. Great video btw. I'm looking forward to seeing your channel grow. Have a sub!
Your second video, my first viewing ( i don't know why i got no notification) . Loving your show for the last two years. Carry on blowing stuff up and showing it in gloriously slow motion colours 🏴🤔😇🏴
@@RBWVETDOC yeah I have some that both cases are jag but some have gold primers and some regular silver color. The boxes have different I queasy lot numbers. Made different times using what ever components they can get that are good quality. I know they get their bullets from lehigh they kind of partnerd up.
Just throwing this out there for peoples knowledge. The Xtreme Defender bullets used by GH Ammo, Underwood and any others that use them are all made by Lehigh Defense. I believe they are all loaded to Lehigh specifications too. Just letting everyone know so they can check them out and see all the awesome bullets they make.
It doesn't. The sounds are added in post processing. There are guys who specialize in creating fake slow-motion sound effects to be added to slow-mo videos. If they used the real sound, it would sound like very loud radio static.
I’d say you know, generally lighter rounds are faster. Impressive work; certain ballistic gels like the one you’re using have more elasticity to them than human flesh. There are gels that are better at mimicking flesh, but this still gives you a good idea. Good job, again!
@@BallisticHighSpeed LOVE the videos brother!! Always a great thing for more brothers and sisters to join the 2A Community and Protection of yourself and loved ones. 🇺🇸🇺🇸
Need to get some good 300 blackout and 5.56 defensive ammo vs torso. But make sure you do not use subsonic ammo for the 300 AAC. As almost all defense ammo in 300 is supersonic at 120 grains or less.
So cool to see how everything acts/reacts in slow mo. I can’t tell if it was just me or if (especially on the ball round) you could see the bullet yawing a little as it exits the muzzle? Also I noticed when you get the dieseling effects in the gel, it’s always when the largest section of the temporary cavity recompresses. I’m gonna end up watching this a few more times now to see if there’s any solid footage of what the bullet is doing to make the wound channel larger in one area compared to another. Because if you noticed the dieseling happened closer to the exit with the ball round (I think about where it began to tumble) and closer to the entrance on the penetrator round (which seemed to possibly start tumbling and doing that lateral rotation closer to the entrance wound). Definitely gonna watch this a few more times to analyse it like a real nerd.
The larger cavities are due to the round beginning to transfer energy as it meets increased resistance; you can see how the shape of the bullet is a major factor in when the energy transfer occurs, especially in handgun calibers with short barrels and relatively low velocities.
The faster the bullet travels, the larger the cavity. That's why 556 is so deadly compared to 9mm. its cuz the high velocity puts so much trauma to ur organs.
And i love your whole idea and a way you make this videos, all short clips not to much talking just right and important !! Love it and don t stop or change the idea. Btw I got one idea for you how to setup lower spread of bullet over balistics gel.
Looks like the Lehigh Defense 9mm, 90 gr +P I have used. Other videos described it as "barrier blind" due to its awesome ability to penetrate barriers and enter the ballistic gel.
It's interesting to me to see the amount of unburnt powder from the handgun. I assume the burn would be more complete in a longer barrel and I'd like to see a video covering that.
If you hand load you’ll notice that all the load data in a lyman book is from testing in a 6” barrel. I’ve always assumed that is what mfr uses to work up loads because it’s better to load for the longest barrel and have un burnt powder in shorter barrels than to have ammo run out of steam halfway through a longer barrel. When I was hand loading I would always have to modify powder charge to fit my specific barrel length
I like the slo mo, but why the switch up on the guns? Initially firing the extreme through a FDE framed, threaded barrel Glock, then the slo no is of a standard 19.
Interesting to see that both were tumbling espacially the XTREME DEFENSE. There is a manufacturer that make special bullets/ammo that is designer for tumbling TUI Tumblin Upon Impact.
Awesome video fellas‼️ 😳😲😵👍👍👍👍🔥🔥🎯🎯🎯💯💯 I think Lehigh defense or Underwood have the same projectile‼️ I'd like to see a test between the round you showed and the lehighs or underwoods Extreme Penetrator and Is extreme defender
Lol now ya got it. Channel has great potential and some true blue gun guys will watch IF ..... you do your homework. Alot of us would love to see the standard fbi clothing gel test in super slow mo... federal hst, speer gold dot, hornady critical defense....
Outstanding footage! I want to point out that the Extreme Defense is solid copper. I plan to use for my deer hunting this fall, as literature shows lead fragments end up in game meat. They are very small particles, you are not getting them out. So all copper is a HUGE plus for these (no pun intended). The shape of these rounds also causes more energy to dump sooner as seen in your slow motion frames, also a great aspect. Last, I shoot into rubber mulch. It stops even rifle rounds, and for target practice I suspect I can reuse these in my reloading system a number of times. The rifling grooves may be able to be filled electrochemically, (and swage or sand high parts?). This ammo is close to a buck per round, but if my hunch is correct about the reusable nature of this design, it will be well worth it. Especially if 9mm ever gets hard to acquire down the road again (EMP, Solar Flare, stupid politics, etc.)
It's clear in the first minute of video that you guys know more about photography/videography than firearms. Nothing wrong with that at all. Keep making these great videos and learning all you can. Thanks for bringing your expertise into the firearms realm and giving us these sweet videos.
The temperature of a gas increases as it comes under increased pressure. Compress a gas hard enough, it can reach a critical temperature, and go boom. Same concept is used in diesel engines; no spark plugs, just a mist and compression from the engine pistons. Those little combustions are caused by gas (aka air) being sucked into the channel by the bullet's wake then being trapped, and compressed to the point of auto-ignition by the collapsing temporary cavity(s). You can see the same thing happening in slow-mo footage of (simulated) depth charges.
Really great video...I think this channel is going to do really well as I don't know of another one like it on youtube...keep it up!! I would love to see hollow point vs FMJ also
I have most of the rounds you mentioned just because i like seeing how different rounds blow up water jugs 😂. One weird one i haven’t shot yet is the arx 65gr the box says 1650 fps,it’s a weird copper polymer bullet that i want to shoot into gel. As far as carry ammo the only thing i carry is 147gr hst rounds, i load my own and have never seen one fail to open. I have loaded them on the low end of published load data and shot them out of my 43x and they still expand. For rifle ammo i use a 64gr soft point and a 55gr frangible bullet that i load. They both seem to work extremely well, compared to a vmax round the soft point just seems to dominate ime.
You may have addressed this somewhere else but, I think it would be good to clarify the close-up shots of the bullets leaving the barrel are not from the same wide shot of the pistol shooting the gel. Obviously, you only have so many cameras and an increasingly limited viewing area as frame rate goes up. I'm enjoying your channel! Looking forward to what you do next!
This is exactly what I’ve been looking for for quite some time. The advertised function of the flutes on the projectile don’t seem to function at all like Lehigh advertised them to. Rather they induce a very controlled tumbling inside the target. I don’t know why they didn’t say that, as it’s an actually tried and true method to increase the size of the wound channel unlike the claimed fluid dynamics BS that doesn’t work the way they claim. I avoided the ammo because I didn’t trust it’s effectiveness would translate to to actual tissue, but seeing the way it actually works suggests it should translate just fine. So it should not only have a comparable wound channel as many hollow points, it’s not going to get clogged or be damaged by barriers.
That was fun to watch. So the extreme ammo’s shape, allows the force of the bullet to affect closer to its impact point rather than further away? So, a human torso is shorter than a rectangle of gel; the original fmj looked like its force generated upon impact, affected the furthest end of the gel the most, so when a 9 would hit a person, the most force generated is after it passes through?
Guys, you need to take a look on tradicional bullets like Keith's semi wad cutters, and compare it with one or two modern defense bullets! I'm sure everyone will get shocked!
Lehigh Defense bullets, their "claims" that the fluted tip bullets direct fluids perpendicular from the tip of the bullet and create permanent wound cavity larger than projectile. The actual fact is, their bullets are tumbling, much like a FMJ tumbles, but due to the sharp features, probably do a bit more tearing when they tumble. I'd still go with an expanding hollowpoint, whether lead or copper type.
This is utterly and completely false. The reason it is tumbling is because they are using silicone-based gelatin. They need to use organic just like the FBI uses to get accurate results.
So was that "explosion" caused by sonoluminescence ? Or was it superheating the air as the gel slammed back together? The bullet was completely clear of the gel... So it wasn't anything left behind by that...
I spy an fde frame with threaded barrel shooting the gel then I see a regular 19 when showing the rounds come out the muzzle I wonder if that would affect the velocity with the extra half inch of barrel 😁. Love the videos gents!
QUICK NOTE: I learned during the production of this video that the bullet "grain" refers to its mass, and not the grain measurement of the gunpowder. Apologies for misspeaking during the video!
I appreciate the fact you say this. As someone who grew up around firearms and everything, I also assumed that’s what it was too. Learned maybe a year or two ago that it was bullet weight and not powder and went “huh.. I’ve been super wrong my whole life” lol
@@stephensonger7324 Thanks for being understanding! We're always willing to admit our mistakes and keep learning.
Good job! Just gonna tell you the same thing lol 👍🏻
It’s actually a very common mistake nothing to be ashamed of
Low grain often results in higher velocity. Less mass to push. Have you tried Underwood Xtreme Defender yet?
Just in case it isn't mentioned elsewhere, the reason for the secondary detonation in the gel is from the collapsing gasses. This is the same thing as a diesel engine combustion. The compression of the bubble collapsing compresses the gasses enough for ignition, and the fuel is either raw powder or the gel itself.
thanks for clarifying, it happens inside a body too ?
The secondary detonation is called sono luminescence.

The "grain" is the weight of the bullet not the amount of propellant inside the case. I made the same mistake when I was "newer" to guns.

Wow. What a fun job you guys have.
So cool to see an FMJ round tumble and cause more of a wound channel right at that point.
That was fun to watch. So the extreme ammo’s shape, allows the force of the bullet to affect closer to its impact point rather than further away? So, a human torso is shorter than a rectangle of gel; the original fmj looked like its force generated upon impact, affected the furthest end of the gel the most, so when a 9 would hit a person, the most force generated is after it passes through?

So was that "explosion" caused by sonoluminescence ? Or was it superheating the air as the gel slammed back together? The bullet was completely clear of the gel... So it wasn't anything left behind by that...
Sick slo mo 👌
Awesome! What causes those mini explosions to happen inside the gel?
I would love to see one on the controlled chaos round by Lehigh defense
Are you guys gonna do this with the there .45 extreme ammo? Would love to see it!
I spy an fde frame with threaded barrel shooting the gel then I see a regular 19 when showing the rounds come out the muzzle I wonder if that would affect the velocity with the extra half inch of barrel 😁. Love the videos gents!
We had to shoot some of the high speed video on a different day because of weather 🙂 but that’s a great question!
Guys, there is a small fireball inside the gel at time 2:53. What is the cause of that?
I stacked a couple mags alternating these and Speer gold dot hallows. Because why not 🤷🏻♂️. 😂😂
I would love this on all 9mm ammunition
It would be cool to add a color coded inch scale on the poster board behind the gel.
Am I the only one that noticed the pistols change barrel and color on the slomo?😂
First time viewer. Oh my God was that awesome. Please put some beef ribs in front of the gel and see what that does
