[QUOTE="xsn10s, post: 2520548, member: 95344"] The only issue is that the gel tests I did the gel needed to be calibrated for 70 degrees and the a penetration test with a BB gun at a certain velocity. It's been now twenty some years now so I don't remember the specific parameters. And I didn't see what gel he was using and the temp when he set up. It's a neat test but I'm still not sure of the accuracy of the tests. That said I find it impressive that the 28XX fps shot a permanent would cavity for some 19 inches. And the second video the bullet still opened at around 1800 fps. The snow on the ground makes me wonder about how it affected the gel blocks, I suspect it made them tougher/ denser. But it's still some good info! Thanks for the videos. [/QUOTE]
