You have my sincere thanks, sir. I didn’t know if you would be able to get around to doing this video, but I’m glad I requested it. The results were really quite interesting: I am impressed that the round did so well against soft body armor, even from a short barrel; I am underwhelmed, however, with its performance on the meat target. Its still very interesting ammo, but seems to be more limited in application than I thought. Oh well, that’s why I am grateful when people test these things. Thanks for all the work.

Just came across your channel & I really like the straight forward info & millinium era feel. I've used the fort scott TUI against an interceptor vest taped around an empty 55 gallon drum. Just one layer of vest it went right through & both sides of the drum. We doubled the vest up & it stopped the TUI in the second layer of vest but still put a nice sized dent in the drum. Impressive stuff if you are looking for penetration. I got very similar velocities out of my Jericho as you did your Beretta. Keep up the good work man.

By the time you find some really soft mild steel rod .357" O.D. ( for my ,357 revolver). and access to a lathe it might be more cost effective to buy something off the shelf, thanks for the thought, stay safe.

[@franklinAll8735]

@@stevensparks3126 That's right. AP ammo sales ban is meant to prevent retarded ghetto thugs from getting them. Anyone with 3 digit IQ can make their own AP projectiles and reload cartridges with them. It ain't rocket science. However, with the 5.7 it ain't even necessary to play with lathe. A hot 2000fps+ load of 5.7 with a hard cast FMJ will easily go through any 3a armor. Give that a thought!

[@Jerry-dk8se]

Paul, you play such a great "straight man" comic, and you crack me up! 😂🤣 Great demonstration, as usual. 👍

[@christopherreed4723]

Very interesting demonstration. Thank you! There are two specific points I took away from this... 1) Terminal effects from a tumbling projectile *are* a real thing, but will be most pronounced with one that is longer than it is wide (6.5mm Carcano, 5.45x39mm 7N6, etc). This means that relying on the projectile tumbling to inflict damage/transfer energy is not going to be a productive approach with most pistol calibers (7.62x25 Tokarev might work, and the 5.7x28 SS198LF also). 2) I believe the intended service ammunition for the Russian MP443/PYa pistol is the 9mm 7N21 round, using a 83.3gr steel core bullet moving at between 1460 and 1541 fps. Since MP443 pistols are a bit rare on this side of the Atlantic, and steel-core 7N21 ammo is even rarer, this TUI ammo at least gives an indication of it's likely performance. It would be very interesting to see if (and how) the MP443's design addresses the inaccuracy issues of very light, high-velocity 9mm projectiles.

[@JohnW-yv6yp]

Wow, that body armor penetration was crazy, level 3A will often stop .44 magnum!

[@Matteo_]

Depending on how hot a 357 SIG loading is I've seen them penetrate.

[@franklinAll8735]

3a will stop 45-70 govt. Blunt force trauma on the other hand... Soft armor will stop lead, heavy and slow slugs even if they have lots of kinetic energy. Fast, hard projectiles are a different story. Reload your 9x19 with mild steel pointy slugs and they will go through any soft armor.
