Ballistic Testing American-Made G9 Defense Ammo 

Good information and explanation as always. Appreciate the consistency and system. Look forward to up and coming tests. I don't think I would choose this G9 myself but it is another viable option. Options are good. Enjoy.

Thanks for changing your process. I never liked how you scored a bullet score even though It was not sighted in. It would be interesting to see how some of the other bullets would score based on the new process. Thanks for another fun video

Looking forward to more pac-t test!

Another great test! Glad to see you have Civil Defense. I really like how you give results on recoil compared to a target round and i like the closeups on the wound channel as well. Great additions! Itd be great to see a PAC-T test on Simx Defensecore as well.

Now we know what happened to your old Carhartt! I really like the changes and additions you're making to the PAC-T test and you've certainly selected a great group of bullets. It's easy to almost want to give the HST and the Critical Duty/Defense loads a pass because of their reputation but your testing will certainly make a difference in future buying decisions. I think where the G9 and similar bullets like the Lehigh Defense XP would shine is in a one for one exchange over standard ball ammo when trying to penetrate heavy winter clothing like down parkas or, God forbid you had nothing else, thick skinned animals like a bear. I'm curious, do you watch the RU-vid channel The Ballistic Machinist? He manufactures and sells his own ammunition and the results from the 9mm are compelling. If you have a few bucks left in your pocket and think his tests merit the higher standards of the PAC-T, it may be worth trying a box. Cheers!

Wonderful, would you please test the 10mm Woodsman for the same brand?

Fluted solid monolithic bullets are designed to produce exceptional wound channels and I do not think the G9 performed that poorly. However, its penetration was totally unacceptable. I have seen tests of the Underwood 90gr Xtreme Defender, with a similar fluted monolithic bullet (made by Lehigh), perform much better overall.

G9 is barrier blind ammunition that maintains its POA/POI while penetrating difficult real world barriers such as windshields and bone. This capability opens up a range of possibilities including being able to penetrate the skull outside of the traditional ocular cavity. While your PAC-T methodology may be fine with hollow point technology, your results would be much more comprehensive and meaningful if you expanded your PAC-T protocol to include challenging barriers that are faced in the real world and applied this standard to all types of ammo. Doing so would position G9 in the broader context. I mean, who cares if brand XYZ has better penetration or temporary wound cavitation in your test if the bullet is stopped or deviated by a barrier?

10mm ehp?
