    Bullet testing in ballistic gel

    I understand and agree with all of that. But, working with organic gel has additional complications and considerations which I just have no interest in dealing with. The organic gel needs to be kept at a controlled temperature, which is something I don't have space for. Organic gel is more...

    Bullet testing in ballistic gel

    More testing, but with 338 bullets this time. All bullets were fired from an 18" barreled 338/375 Ruger specialty pistol. You'll have to excuse the "champagne gel block" thing that I have going on with a few of the blocks. I was short on time and didn't have time to throw the gel blocks in the...

    Bullet testing in ballistic gel

    First post here on Rokslide, so I thought I'd make it an interesting one. I've been posting this info on a few other forums, but it was suggested that I throw it up here as well. I've done a lot of bullet testing over the years using different materials and methods to catch bullets. A few years...
