Stopping Power of .45 ACP

In this week's video, we take a look at the stopping power of the .45 ACP. We are firing into synthetic ballistics gel at approximate FBI Standards with 230gr FMJ and JHP. We also look at the difference in controlled firing speed, as well as testing penetration in the ballistics gel from a range of 50 meters.

Sorry for the slight mistake in editing -- the other firearm in the magazine dump comparison is the .40 S&W Glock 27 from our Stopping Power of .40 S&W video.

Thanks for watching. New videos post every Thursday!
