JANUARY 2, 2019: Roy, thank you for the comment. Following the "sentinel event", my health returned in mid-2014 and I've been good since. Hate to hear about your issues and hope that your health improves and holds firm. There are current factors preventing a return to video production. Those elements are finances, products, and time. Ammo tests are expensive and time consuming to produce. I disposed of my clear blocks in mid-2018, which by that point were nearly 4 years old. They had dry-rotted to some extent and would not calibrate. The stainless steel molds were donated to local metal recycling. It would require a minimum of $500 to buy new blocks and molds. 20 rd boxes of ammo are approximately $30. My primary camera is still solid but I could use a backup. The software editor works but needs an update. Looking at $3000 or so just to have the necessary components in place to begin thinking about returning, and that doesn't account for what happens after getting out of the gate. There was a time when Adsense covered all channel expenses.....ammo, camera equipment, lights, software, targets, paint, blocks, denim, and even a firearm every so often. Monthly payouts continue but after withholding taxes I can buy a few boxes of ammo for the range and EDC. The final three years I was active (2014-2016), I lost money on this. Patreon, IMO, is a last-gasp option if a channel is not corporate sponsored and therefore not a long-term viable solution. I'm never going to have corporate industry support, although there had been some nice offers......but for product only. That helps but there has to be revenue. While there are a few new handgun products worthy of testing (because Federal, Hornady, etc. show no interest in producing a detailed review), a return focus would have included more shotgun and rifle tests, and range reports. Good rifle tests are at moderate distances, such as 200 yds. I have access to property for that, but it's a Saturday or weekend trip. I travel on business almost weekly and the last thing I want to do on the weekend is focus on video production. Shooting sessions, yes, but without the cameras. Granted, I acknowledge that I have some assets for channel promotion that others do not, but the aforementioned F P and T factors persist. Even if these factors were all positive, I still don't have the time, plus due to censorship the KZbin content creator experience has bottomed-out. New content would not be monetized, and KZbin demonetizes my older content on a weekly basis. Videos that are 3 to 10 years old do not adhere to KZbin's current Terms of Service, which is bullcrap. At this pace, there won't be any Adsense remaining on my channel by mid-2020. Alternative platforms have not yet reached the status where they draw the volume of users and provide creator revenue. I'm 99.9% done with online video production.

@drmaudio8 жыл бұрын
Very interesting. The visible difference in Speer's 124+p for short barrels, compared with the standard 124+p, is a shallower hollow point cavity, ostensibly trading a little expansion for penetration at the lower short barrel velocities. My assumption was that this load was going for the same thing with its shorter serration. I guess the interesting thing is that it doesn't seem to make much of a difference. In my own (very unscientific) testing, I made the same conclusion concerning the Gold dots. Considering little or no difference in performance, and a significant price difference, I will stick with standard offerings for my short barreled carry gun.

@tnoutdoors98 жыл бұрын
I've put my HST's in ammo cans for now. They consistently expand extremely well, but I've researched a wide variety of forums and seeing penetration numbers below what I'm comfortable with. FWIW, took another look at my own tests, and ran some more off-camera. Expansion seems to be the HST's primary calling card. Going back to my original EDC load, 124 +P Gold Dot, but I'm taking a close look at the Underwood version, which clocks in a tad bit faster and more consistent than the Speer factory load. Also playing with Underwood's 147 +P XTP; I'm getting 1130 FPS on that from a Glock 19. It is also very consistent shot to shot.

The Federal 150 Micro shares the same ballistic performance stats as the failed Winchester Olin 147 "subsonic" that helped completely ruin the 9mm's reputation in the early 90s. Only now, after 20+ years, is the 9mm being seriously considered as a good self-defense round. I hope this Federal Micro doesn't set it back again. The 124 +P is just so much better in the field. Chicago PD and NYPD have had dozens of successful shootings with it. I'll pass on this due to another excellent review.

Good point. Now that 9mm has regained the "mantle" it enjoyed in the 80's/90's, expect to see more ammo development in that caliber compared to others. Loads seemed to be geared toward reducing recoil. The balance in achieving that goal will be maintaining adequate ballistic performance. Tough task.

As usual, an extremely detailed and informative video on a relevant topic. You are one of the top gun culture influencers on KZbin. I'm glad you're back in business. Thanks.

I like the Federal line a lot, and I've invested a bit of cash to get about 200 of the 147gr. They run fine in the Glock 17 Gen 3. Thank you for doing all these tests for us. Very accurate and professional!

Still sticking with the 147, but I do like that federal is continuing to progress the technology and always trying to make a superior product, and as always thank you for your hard work and amazing videos

Another fantastic, informative test, Brett Favre! I don't imagine you'll be making a EDC 2.0 video that includes these in your top 5, as your last statements in this video is all the explanation needed.

Thanks coach. I may have pulled a leg muscle on this one so I'm hitting the tub. Skipping the presser. I'm considering an overview of the past 5 1/2 years of block testing, in all the major service calibers. Nothing deep, just the basics. All of this has become redundant past the point of being boring. Established companies exploiting a niche (recoil resistant shooters) and making ammo such as this. New companies making niche products (Polycase, G2, Lehigh, etc.) that may or may not be accepted by a broad swath of those interested in self-defense. Companies using premium bullets and pushing them to crazy velocities (Underwood, etc.) But overall, nothing new that warrants using 3 vacation days to make a video and get somewhat the results we expected. So I'll use one vacation day and make a short video that regurgitates all the crap I've uncovered since 2011, LOL.

Still the best ammunition reviews on the Internet. Also seems like a lot of things these days are all about the marketing of the product when they all pretty much preformed to similar.

Just to be clear ‘ tnoutdoors9’... the success of your videos rode on the coattails of that dynamic and gregarious personality you have, bubbling over with humor and cleverly crafted silliness. “You” were the real deal, the “Star” of the vids’...your ammo/firearms knowledge and presentations were secondary to the actual person we loved to watch. You could have chosen any subject to promote and you’d have been equally successful my friend. So it’s “You” we will miss seeing most of all. Thank You from the bottom of our 2nd amendment lovin’ hearts pal. Sincerely, Bud M.

Hey TNOD9, love your vids! Very sorry to hear you're not going to be posting vids any longer.... You're one of the few who actually used scientific methods and showed empirical results for those wanting to evaluate their ammunition.

First of all I am so glad you are back to doing ammo reviews. I too am a user of the 147 HST and the +p 147, when you get it on line in 50 round count boxes it is about 32.00 including shipping. I am glad that Federal is paying attention to smaller self defense carry pistols and making an effort in that field. Having said that I am with you, the 147 is already a top performer and can be had for way less money.
