You are most welcome. Take care.

Thanks for watching.

Thank you very much Bruce. We are doing our season of PAC-T tests right now and just finished testing Liberty Ammo's Civil Defense 50 gr. bullet in 9mm. Here is the link if you are interested ua-cam.com/video/aU6-OIlkKJ0/v-deo.htmlsi=zZOq00bwFhKvucGS Thanks for watching and posting.

Thanks. Nothing wrong with disagreeing as there is no absolutely definitive answer to my tests or anyone else's tests. They are tests and not reality. In fact, even a bullet that works once in reality may be shown to fail in another instance. Here's the key: this fellow did it just right: A well placed shot... that is the key to making any bullet perform. Thanks for sharing that!

@@sdkweber well said! That's very nice to hear. Alot of guntubers test a round one time and draw conclusions from that. Can't wait for your next PAC-T test!

@@funwithballistics1016 Our next PAC-T comes out in about two weeks. We are putting out a precision rifle video next Thursday. Fun stuff.

@@sdkweber sounds great!

Thanks Aaron. I hope you had a great Independence Day with family and fun.

Thanks again for watching! And Happy Independence day to you and your family.

@@sdkweber Went the range with my son and his new 1911. I chronographed 308 reloads in 16" & 26" barrels.

@@guardianminifarm8005 Very cool indeed. Do tell about what you learned from 16 vs. 26" barrel .308. Did you really see a tremendous drop in velocity in the 16" rifle?

@@sdkweber I have recently tested about a dozen handloads all at near max with the best powders for the caliber using 150, 165/168 & 180 grain boat tail bullets(SST, NBT, MatchHP, BTSP). I have also tested a couple factory loads(Superformance & Win Power Point). The range has been 185fps to 330 fps. Most are landing 200-250fps difference.

@@guardianminifarm8005 That is interesting. I have read each inch of barrel gives you about 25 fps difference in velocity and your test pretty well confirms that. A 10" difference in barrel length giving you 200-250 fps difference in MV. Thanks for taking the time to post that and answer my question.

Thanks. I never had such problems getting muzzle velocity before and I think your suggestions for the Labradar are good. I will look into the magnetic trigger for it. Any suggestions by the way?

The Samsung camera with a super slowmo app. :)

The HK VP9 has a 4.09" barrel (4" for all intents and purposes). Great gun.

That is too bad. Sorry to hear that. I have not tried Corbon DPX in my .45s, just the 9mm (and I think it is great in the 9mm). Another great round is the Federal HST, they make a 230 gr for 45 ACP and it shoot flawlessly in my HK 45T.

@@sdkweber yep that's what I use hst

@@kirkcharboneau1090 That is a great choice. Also a top of the line defensive bullet.

No, sorry I have not reloaded for that cartridge. I reload for the .30-30 but not .45-70.

@@sdkweber okay thank you. I'm just a fan of the 45-70 and I'm looking for some in depth videos on reloading for it. Do you have any on loading for the 30-30?

@@jmc041071 I have not done any videos on reloading for the .30-30, but it is really no different than reloading for any other rifle caliber. I guess, the only difference would be to take great care when working up the load to ensure the rifle (in my case a lever action Winchester) functions perfectly with that load.

@@sdkweber I figured the process would be the same I just like watching videos of reloading. I love lever guns but unfortunately don't have one yet. Hopefully soon. And I'm very Interested in reloading. But when I start, it will have to be with the basics at first.

@@jmc041071 Feel free to ask questions when you get started. I would be happy to answer your questions and help you out.

Cool. I never regretted buying the premium brass for my precision rifle loads

The app makes the sounds itself. I believe it can be turned off, but I think its kind of fun.

Yes, we are actually working on this right now.

Not really. We are testing various factory ammo in it normal packaging. I have tested a lot of ammo and the performance difference between standard and +P is minimal.

You are welcome. Yes, the ARD killflash does work and we have another video on the same topic coming out regarding scope detection at night. Thanks for watching.

You will find some variability in the actual weight of most bullets. You can sort them by weight so as you shoot them each group will be consistent. Do not try to alter the bullet because doing so will effect the aerodynamics and flight characteristics of the bullet even if you work on the base of the bullet. That is the place where the air currents meet after passing over the bullet and form some turbulence. Altering the base of the bullet will alter the airflow dynamics as is not recommended. I hope this helps.

Thanks much. I just took at look at Simx Defensecore online. Interesting stuff. I see they have some new bullets coming out also with a ceramic core. Very interesting and thanks for the idea.

@@sdkweber your welcome. Can't wait for your next test!

@@funwithballistics1016 Our next PAC-T test video comes out next week... right on the 4th of July.

@@sdkweber sounds good! Can't wait!

You are welcome David. Trying to make these better each year.

Agreed, but I could not get it when I recorded this video. Kind of a common problem today.

@@sdkweber yup. Online

I would really like to test that one. Thanks for the idea and thanks for watching.

Interesting note. I think the test we did with a jacket and leather barrier emulates a real world situation quite well. Realistically, most of us are not going to be shooting bad guys through car doors or glass windshields but much more likely confronting a bad guy at close range with nothing between us but clothing. Do you see what I mean?

@@sdkweber If we are talking about an ATM robbery or carjacking or even home invasion, perhaps you are right (although I live in South Florida where most people don't wear leather or jackets). I am thinking more of active shooters, body armor, store robberies, gas station encounters . . . situations where you may have barriers between you and the center of mass that need to be breached or adjust the firing solution for head shots. Regardless, I think not taking into account one of the key benefits and purposes of barrier-blind ammo like this, and then comparing it to conventional HP technology is shortchanging the viewer both in terms of analyzing the results as well as considering self defense scenarios.

@@karimmanassa9634 Those are indeed more extreme scenarios, still I wonder if most people will ever be in such situations. As a civilian would it be best to just leave the area (if possible) instead of trying to shoot? There are a myriad of variables and trying to cover each would take a lifetime. BTW, One of my favorites (favorite only because it did so well in my testsl) is the Corbon DPX. A very good barrier blind bullet in all tests thus far. We have videos these bullets also. You got me thinking about some additional tests now. Thanks.

@@sdkweber Thank you. I will check out the Corbon.

Get a roast or pork shoulder and soak over night...then test carbon and G9...you'll see the difference.

Thanks for watching. I have tested the Underwood ammo 105 gr. but not the 90 gr. Here is a link to that bullet's test if you are interested ua-cam.com/video/WWcX4W46ryw/v-deo.htmlsi=RWFBV8seMdss1ZfO

Hey Aaron. Yep, waste not want not! I figured I may as well put my old jacket to good use plus I think it makes for a more interesting/realistic test. I have not watched the Ballistic Machinist but will check it out later today. Thanks for the note.

More to come on nearly a weekly basis. Thanks for watching and posting.

You are welcome. Thanks for watching and taking the time to post a comment.

I agree. S&B is top of the line. Thank you for watching and posting.

Good idea. I do use my HK VP9 for EDC. Are you thinking of something with an even shorter barrel?

@@sdkweber Subcompact, maybe even microcompact. See if what they say about 147 grain being too slow for 3 or 4" barrels is true or not.

@@deenyc1049 I understand and that sounds like an interesting test. The pistol I used in this test has a 4.09" barrel. I do not have another with a 3" barrel. I will see if someone I know around here has a 3" bbl. 9mm pistol I could use for the test.

@@sdkweber I’m glad I stumbled onto this channel, I’ll be binging your videos.

@@deenyc1049 Cool, thanks DeeNYC

The hand calculations and inherent errors of poorly fit models (older BC) would have made me call it quits. That's probably why "Kentucky windage" became so popular.... and with an experienced shooter, it also became effective. Thanks for watching and posting Aaron.

Correct. And that is an advantage of both Hornady 4DOF and Lapua 6DOF. At the same time, the effect of these variables are slight. Thanks for watching.

Me either. I have purchased a new bullet puller of a different design, the Hornady Cam Lock system. Works slick. Thanks for watching.

And thanks for watching. That S&B was a temporary scope on the MRAD just so I could get some time behind the trigger.

Hello and thanks for watching from Australia. Good questions. First the type of rifling effects the longevity of the barrel. And can also effect the precision. For example Bartlein (and other) custom barrels produce better precision for a reason. They are very well made barrels, with carefully cut rifling (or hammer forged), and they use very good steel. For your question #2, the ramp you refer to is already in use. It is called the Leade and its purpose it so "lead" the bullet into the rifle. Some manufacturers use a steeper leade and others a more gradual lead. The crown on the muzzle is also very important for precision. I hope this answers your questions. Thanks for watching.

@@sdkweber It does, Thank you.

@@crazyharry1586 You are welcome. Have a good rest of your day.

Thanks for watching Kevin. We have lots of videos you might like as part of our Extreme Reloading seasons. Season 9 is wrapping up next week.

Another one to look at is the .30 Nosler. The 300 PRC is excellent. Just last weekend my son and I were consistently hit an 18" steel plate at 910 yards under windy conditions. The .300 PRC bullets are "mapped" using Doppler radar and all this is available through Hornday's 4DOF, allowing me to get a hit on my second shot at that range (the wind pushed it right on shot one so needed one more click). From that point, we rarely missed. I am not sure the Nosler will have that available and its not chambered in lots of rifles. Thanks for watching and posting.

Thank you very much for posting this. I have not had a chance to actually use a Nightforce scope and only looked at them in sporting goods shops. I recently purchased another Schmidt and Bender PMII 3-20X for my Barrett rifle. SB has continued to advance their technology it is even better than the PMII on my Ruger Precision Rifle. Incredible scopes (all these). Thanks again for posting your observations on Kahles and Nightforce. Good stuff.

Thank you. It is good to hear from you and I trust all is well with you. Thanks for watching and posting.

@@sdkweber Quite well, thank you. Home, ministry & business are quite busy. So much less leisure time nowadays. Lord bless.

@@guardianminifarm8005 Yes indeed. it is nice to recognize names like yours on these comments. Keep up the Good work!

I think much of the concern about scope glint comes from video games like Call of Duty and Battlefield. Someone likely got the idea after hearing about Carlos' story. He was a great one. I think today's scope are much better and with all the coatings are pretty difficult to see a glint.
