As an author and consultant in the field of penetration mechanics, I am pleased to see that 22plinkster is the latest to document the issues that plague the use of the Clear Ballistics Gel product. There are only two factors that produce the dynamic pressure that initiates and drives projectile expansion in a terminal ballistic test medium. They are 1.) projectile velocity and 2.) density of the test medium. If the density of the test medium is not close to that of human soft tissues (1.040 ± 0.020 g/cc), then there is no way that the test medium can accurately reproduce the expansion and resultant penetration depth of a test bullet. The density of human skeletal muscle tissue is 1.057 g/cc. The density of human adipose tissue (aka: 'fat') is 0.945 g/cc The density of properly prepared and calibrated 10% ordnance gelatin at 39°F is 1.037 - 1.043 g/cc. The density of water is 0.9982 g/cc at STP. The density of Clear Ballistics Gel is 0.824 g/cc. The Clear Ballistics Gel product is between 13% and 22% less dense than human soft tissues. This is why Clear Ballistics Gel produces less dynamic pressure to initiate and drive projectile expansion. Clear Ballistics Gel produces less expansion and greater penetration than what occurs in any human soft tissue or either of the two valid accepted soft tissue simulants: 10% ordnance gelatin and water. The take-away? Clear Ballistics Gel is an inferior test medium which is incapable of producing test data that is representative of any human soft tissue or either of the two accepted human soft tissue test mediums. Nicely done, 22plinkster!

@@RedlinePush Yeah, if you research this you'll find that it is 100% true. Clear Ballistics Gel was a recent corporate invention that only got popular because they sent a ton of free blocks to Guntubers. Many of the morally challenged Guntubers knew Clear Ballistics Gel was inferior, but were too lazy to do it the right way and also knew that they could get popular with Clear Gel without all the hard work. It's why Paul Harrell never used it because he had integrity and wanted to show viewers the truth. I have gotten to the point where I would NEVER rely on any test results for self defense or hunting ammo that was tested in Clear Ballistics Gel. It's just a false sense of security to use those results and rely on them.

@@clintmullins8670 plated bullets penetrate better than standard lead round nose bullets. They have less of a tendency to deform on bone or through heavy clothing. Lead round nose will get the job done as well but it is more easily stopped by hard objects. I shot a Remington thunderbolt at an old truck core support and it didn't go through the steel but a Remington golden bullet went straight through. Wouldn't recommend Remington .22 for a defensive gun but both of those ammo types were loaded similarly with the same weight bullet from a 4 inch barreled handgun, the only real difference being the plated vs non plated projectile.

@kennethbaker5150 3 ай бұрын

@@clintmullins8670 the copper plate is a bit harder than plain lead, and is less apt to "catch" on anything in the loading process, especially with a semiautomatic. Also, the plating on the bullet base helps to reduce lead vaporization, that in turn builds up in the barrel and especially in compensators. Probably cleaner in suppressors, as well. I shoot a lot of CCI Tactical and CCI Minimags during competition, and have had exceptional results.

@richardbersch5524 3 ай бұрын

Can't thank you enough for this video, it explains a lot of things I have seen on youtube that didn't make since to me. For example, I saw a lead hollow point (from a .38 revolver) traveling at about 950 ft a second that didn't expand in that clear gel...same thing with a semi-jacketed hollow point that was traveling around 1200 feet per second that did not expand. I was familiar with these rounds and knew that the former only required about 725 fps to at least begin to expand and the latter 1000 fps. They weren't being critical of the rounds, I can't even remember exactly what the video was about...but I do remember thinking how odd that was. I have seen a lot of videos using clear gel where the bullets did not expand in clear gel and thought it was odd. Anyway, thanks, now I understand.

You can also stack the deck in your favor a little more by pre-filling the hollow point with Crisco and removing the air pocket. The hydrostatic shock will be more uniform and expand sooner. This works to improve the terminal performance of virtually all HP ammo, especially subsonic HP which tends to have iffy expansion.

I paid for discreet shipping box. but that damn sticker gave it away to that shotty arse employee. Needless to say I hope he's on a corner w the rest of that Austin trash holding a sign. leave people and their Actual Rights alone. Beware folks. these an queefa turds are everywhere. Also had a driver deliver to my Rural driveway. always leaving packages at the Rd. like 5 ft from pavement. nods. thermals. ammo. parts. I spoke w his overseer and as I had requested previously reinforced the Sign requirement. so the low tee guy accuses my pup of attacking him. I was of course there and watched him scream like a lil girl. swing his phone around like a maniac and pretend to be bitten. Sherrifs laughed at him and I requested he never deliver to my home again. Point being is coohmp Brothers and Sisters. COOHMP. Just moved back Rural. best decision ever. I cringe at the sight and esp the voice of a low tee.

Could you please compare the upper cut to the Federal punch? I would like to know just how they both compare to FBI standards.

@CalzaTheFox 3 ай бұрын

Tools and Targets tested both side by side iirc. The Punch is more consistent, doesn't expand, and actually works fabulously in 16-inch barrels cause it crushes and flattens from the velocity. From what I remember the uppercut didn't like short barrel pistols very much. it can have inconsistent penetration or expansion.

But isn't this insufficient penetration in both gels to meet FBI standards?

@clutchcargo1239 3 ай бұрын

Great observation. He also repeatedly said that over penetration always occurs in the clear gel. He could have shot the clear gel with the BB to back this statement, but he didn't because it doesn't matter. This ammo is clearly weak on both accounts. With this small of a round, penetration is more critical for effectiveness. This video appears to be a paid for, scripted, sales, and marketing correction, designed to make logical sounding excuses to cover an obvious flaw in this overpriced, over hyped product.

@@clutchcargo1239 What you’re suggesting would be pretty fucking stupid considering you can see the penetration with your eyes. This video is about expansion and why people were not seeing it in clear ballistic gel. If the intent was to obfuscate the lack of penetration then he wouldn’t have showed it or measured it. But he did.

@@clutchcargo1239 your comment is stupid and not based on facts. Using 22lr for self defense isn't ideal, but if you're going to then using a bullet that expands reliably will improve the performance. This does that on human-like targets. Is it a great self defense round? Not really. Is it one of the best 22lr self defense rounds? Probly.

This is an absolutely great example of the difference between these two types of gel. Most people these days use the easy clear ballistics gel and lot of the time they don’t get very impressive results from bullets that are known to work well and this is exactly why. Very few people understand this, including the people doing all the ballistic gel tests.

Hey Buckeye, maybe you can make excuses for being lazy and trying to get easy popularity for using a known inferior ballistic medium to test self ammo? You and all of the rest of the lazy, narcisstic guntubers who want fame and money without working hard like 22Plinkster, Paul Harrell, TNOutdoors9, etc. Instead, you get free gel blocks from Clear Ballistics and cash in on the clicks. Sorry, but it takes hard work to do the right thing. Anything else and you are misleading your viewers.
