Federal Hydra-Shok .45 ACP 230 gr JHP Ammo Test

Simple penetration and expansion test of the Federal Hydra-Shok .45 ACP 230 grain hollowpoint, using a diluted form of SIM-TEST Ballistic Testing Media. This format is comparable to ballistic gel, and includes four layers of denim. Video includes brief overview of the cartridge, recoil shots, and one shot test. Post-shot evaluation shows bullet path through the block, average diameter, retained weight and close-ups of the test bullet. Test gun was a Colt Series 80 with 5" barrel. Advertised muzzle velocity is 900 fps, my 5-shot average was 885 fps. Test shot is from 10 feet. BB calibration, approx. 600 fps, was 3.70", average of 5 shots.
