Hello
Most of the 9mm reviews that I did were shot with two guns.
A SIG 365 SAS, with a 3.1 inch barrel and a Taurus G3 with a 4 inch barrel.
First I do forensic exam of the ammunition. Next I shoot a group while chronographing with each gun. 10 yards with the SIG, three rounds and 15 yards with the G3, five rounds. Chronograph is a Oehler 35P
Then the ammunition is shot out of each gun into a 55 gallon plastic barrel of water. The bullets are then recovered, photographed and then measured for expansion. In cases where the bullet fragments and loses its jacket, a weight is taken with all the recovered material and also a weight taken with just the lead core.
Here is the link to all the photos of the review;
9mm SIG Elite Def 124gr JHP — Postimages
Data Sheet
This is very typical of V-Crown expansion. Core and jacket held together well, not a hint of separation. Pedals expanded out to the advertised 'v' shape pattern. True to its reputation. Accurate and consistent ammunition and pleasant to shoot.
ammoseek.com shows price range from $0.64 to $0.92 and typically come in boxes of 20 or 50.
