G9 Defense Woodsman 124gr 9mm +P - ULTIMATE PENETRATION!!

[@ChristianGustafson]

Picked up some of these, will be working remote along the northern border and need some peace of mind. Got some of their hollow-points as well.

[@grahamohea2424]

Any cartridge branded as "woodsman" or "outdoorsman" or the like is intended as a defensive/hunting round against wild animals where penetration is key and for some reason you want to carry a 9mm instead of a 10mm or high powered revolver. This is not a standard self defense cartridge against bad guys

[@andrewmconrad]

True. In fact, I just had a bear walk in front of my driveway overnight tonight. I guess it's time to get that 10mm

[@la_old_salt2241]

​@@andrewmconradI would.

[@D-A-1776]

​@andrewmconrad . Yeah I'd definitely get a 10mm I live in black bear country and had to shoot one last year. Idk if 9mm would've done the job

[@kellyshea92]

Dead is dead.

[@irecycleoxygen2730]

Depends on the bear. Black bear 10mm. Anything bigger just get a .44. 9mm with hardcast I’d go up to a mountain lion they’re like 180lbs. Places where I camp that’s all I need to worry about.

[@granddad-mv5ef]

Tools would call this the double paper barrier? I really appreciate everything you do to give us, the viewers a result.

[@andrewmconrad]

Thanks. I enjoy making the videos

[@d-unit-outdoors]

5:31 ha! Love the target in the middle

[@CHEECHMUN]

Good detective work. For big 4-legged critters!!!!

[@johnserrano9689]

Are you talking about mouthy dressed like a man butch dikes? Lol oh I hope not 😂

[@NobleCherryttv]

at 4:56 you can see the round redirect left into the bush. area of focus is above the left corner of the box.

[@phigdon3]

The Extreme Penetrator 90gr in 9mm is a different round than the Extreme Defender round. Underwood designed them to have different terminal performances. The Extreme Penetrator 90 gr in 9mm is what I carried to handle dogs in my area that nearly killed our dog and almost attacked me several times.

[@LukeBrownSM]

I understand your rationale, but even large dogs require the same or less penetration to put down than men do, and are very seldom wearing heavy clothing or anything of that nature. At most a thick fur coat, which I doubt most high quality 9mm JHP/Lehigh XD/G9 EHP rounds would have any trouble with. I'd argue that rounds designed for defense against humans are best suited for dogs, as opposed to rounds designed for defense against large animals.

[@LEFTY1506SHILOH]

​@@LukeBrownSM😂🐶🧥 That's funny, I can picture it; lolol!!!

[@CrawldaBeast]

I noticed that no real mention of a wound track. The Xtreme Penetrators do leave a track in gel and flesh as I have taken deer with the XPs. That is a good size bullet and should be about 147gr size because of the copper. I have considered the Woodsman for hunting, but the lack of wound channel is concerning.

[@mrdark9916]

It's not a hunting bullet dude.... Lol

[@gogali666]

And this is 9mm. Have you tried the 10mm, 145 grain one? Id bet itll go through 3. Would be intersting to see.

[@crawdadlando4053]

Like to see some more testing and include 40 S&W (10mm Short & Whimpy) as well. My woods carry is a block 35, black bear, peoples dogs, and Forrest kittens being the more obvious threat.

[@staceymiller1132]

They claim 42” for 10mm … interesting for sure

[@haydengreen4414]

Look up 10mm vs 9mm for bear defense. Vortex did a comparison using buffalo boar ammo and 9mm went about half an inch further in ballistic gel. They also shot a ballistic grizzly bear head and both went all the way through

[@lostandfound3588]

if this could get some crazy tumbling action I'm sure it would be a perfect SD round

[@donaldham308]

I wonder if this would go thru body armor.

[@CHEECHMUN]

Their other ammo does. I have not seen these tested on it.

[@jasonshults368]

Velocity is required to get through body armor. Teflon helps....

[@donaldham308]

​​⁠a lot of things help. I only ask because of the amazing power of the other companies external hollow point rounds.

[@JACKSONKENNELS333]

Where can I get this ammo??

[@EREBO95]

From g9s website

[@steveosmonson6535]

Do the ribs video, we live and do contracting in the PNW (Seattle/surrounding area) w/ bear, etc. and carry this ammo in our edc 9X19, we dont switch out when we leave our projects, and there are some scarry ppl here... Would love to see how it does with ribs, 3a, car doors/glass, etc. Thanks

[@declineofthewest.]

Godspeed

[@vicranger6876]

.454 casull has been noted to be the pistol in Alaska, but 10mm should easily accomplish the task with a great chance of you walking away if your shot was on target. Don’t forget, these bear can run about 35 mph and longer than you can run 8 in the woods. That means they will cover 50 ft at full gallop in a second. I read where a guy who lived there said if the bear is a 100 yards away and really wants you , he will get to you. There was a video of a guy trying to evade a bear and was videotaping his effort until he concluded it was too late and he shut off the video so no video of his actual death that occurred.

[@coltthank2654]

“Nipple” you should have said something manly like penetrating tip😂😂😂

[@TurboWolf88]

Anyone else hear it sounded like the steel plate git hit after it existed?

[@williamlowe2046]

Looks like a purpose built carbine round.

[@dsrrecordsent]

Think it’s for 9mm carbines?

[@derpityderp-derp4007]

Would this work for deer? Like seriously.. Out of a 9mm carbine...

[@andrewmconrad]

It probably would, but it also might not be an ethical kill and the animal could suffer

[@jameshood9694]

This is supposed to be deep penetration. According to their site, it's supposed to penetrate 38 inches from a full size handgun.

[@alphasheepdog9683]

Good back up gun ammo when you’re in the wild. Def shouldn’t be your primary caliber if you’re up north, Alaska, Canada, etc.

[@123gmor]

I would just use the flat nosed military M1152 for woods/bear protection.

[@Dwayne7834]

Thanks for your gel test. Looks like a decent round. I would expect a little bit of expansion. But with the shorter barrel it might not. Usually most rounds seem to perform better in a Longer barrel.

[@andrewmconrad]

I was pleasantly surprised with this test. Recoil was manageable, penetration was good.

[@TriggerHappy007]

These rounds are designed to penetrate things like bulletproof glass or a vest.. they are not meant to expand at all they're meant to punch through anything you shoot at. These are by far one of the most dangerous rounds on the market. It will punch right through an engine block it will go right through a bulletproof vest unless you use steel and even then your going to wish you were dead if you were shot with this. This kind of ammunition falls underneath the Xtreme penetrator category

[@Man_Emperor_of_Mankind]

On a copper solid with a solid point, it's not going to expand against anything softer than iron. They went with a copper sold to prevent deformation, otherwise a lead core bullet would have hit the same depth in gel at a fraction of the cost

[@CHEECHMUN]

Marketed for BIG 4 leg animals. Not made to expand, it's solid copper!

[@leemiller5194]

On the second round i heard it hith the steel behind it lol

[@thatoneguy454c]

It's crazy how when one company says plus P. They mean it and another company says plus p and it is mediocre at best.

[@jasonshults368]

Pressure doesn't necessarily translate to velocity. If I use a slow-burning powder loaded to std pressure spec, it will shoot faster than if I use a fast-burning powder loaded to +P spec. If I load with a slow powder to +P spec, then things get interesting. Handloading, baby

[@indigenius9877]

Right on the money Jason

[@1jimmarch]

There's another issue - pure copper weighs less than the same volume of lead. That means a copper slug of the same weight as a lead slug will be bulkier and leave less room for powder and case capacity, dropping the velocity. This particular bullet design will have a fair amount of its weight out front, so it *should* leave lots of room for powder as opposed to other 124gr copper slugs. 1100fps from a 3" barrel is pretty good for a 124+p.

[@229glock]

lol. I love real life stuff where, no matter how hard you try, you can’t figure out WTF is happening.

[@blood_rayven3253]

I’d rather run 115 grain service grade. I get close to 1340 fps consistently out of my CZ Shadow 2

[@glocksp80smd]

Your aim is to the left. In the block you cna see all your shots in the clear were all left aide so they all shot thru out the sides.

[@D-A-1776]

I like the underwood plus p extreme penatrators better

[@arrobrewer2730]

Are you still receiving mail at the Bobita adress?

[@andrewmconrad]

I let that mailbox lapse a few months ago, I guess I need to update my info.

[@brianbelliveau5551]

Don’t want to use that for self defense it will kill somebody you don’t want to hit with that penetration

[@GanjaBabyy]

Special application rounds. Good for vest's. Or car door windshield, doors etc

[@CHEECHMUN]

Marketed for BIG 4 leg animals, not people!

[@MaxWell-h9u]

That ammo is for wildlife defense.

[@jackconway4692]

I like it

[@kennethrisner8648]

With penetration being the goal one would be better served with a standard 115gr range fmj at a fraction of the cost

[@Man_Emperor_of_Mankind]

Seems like the 124gr NATO load that's basically a +p, would be the obvious choice. Though copper solids do have an advantage in retaining their shape/not deforming. It may perform more consistently with a bone strike than a lead core bullet would

[@CHEECHMUN]

Marketed for BIG 4 leg animals.

[@TriggerHappy007]

That's what this ammo is designed to do it is designed to fly through that is why it has an external hollow point nipple which means it'll punch right through a bulletproof vest! Or bullet proof glass, an engine block or wherever some crap bag is hidden. 😊 The G9 is not meant to stop inside of jell. I was hoping you were shooting a car or a vest in the video

[@championsgaming1]

Pretty sure this is meant to do things like stop bears or boars. Thats what they advertise at least

[@CHEECHMUN]

Yes! Marketed for BIG 4 leg animals, not people! @@championsgaming1

[@JoshPrice-n9k]

M1152.

[@AMM-bc5sw]

115gr +P+ extreme penetrators are getting over 5 foot of penetration. Not extreme defender It's insane for a 9mm Definitely the round you want to carry in Bear Country. Keep Shooting Stay Safe GOD BLESS YOU ALL

[@jamesmarkov9570]

A nato 124 grain 9mm FMJ is probably the same, and cheaper

[@CHEECHMUN]

Marketed for BIG 4 leg animals, not people!

[@jasonshults368]

It's not, James. FMJ can penetrate deep, but in differential media, like living tissue, the round nose will deflect readily and veer in unpredictable ways. Straight line penetration requires a flattened nose meplat.

[@reefread1234]

Also copper doesn't deform like leadcore bullets on bone or through thick fur

[@eb4305]
