This was a funny one! The disbelief in the chrono readings, the 1776, and some really great performance. Awesome test!
Yeah, those box velocities were from a handgun length barrel. But being designed and marketed for a lever gun, you would think they would list the rifle velocities🤔🤔
The best part of the video: 1776🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Very impressive!
Outstanding presentation and analysis. I laughed out loud at the 1776 FPS freeze.
I think Federal has a new 357 round for a lever action. Its called Hammer Down and It's a 170 grain bullet. It would be interesting to see if it could beat the Hornaday Lever Action. Thanks for all the hard work you put in these videos. One more thing keep the cloth on the block
Keep the barrier for rifle, almost like deer hide !! LOL
Good stuff bud.
The manufacturer might have been trying to hit those advertised velocities out of a typical hunting revolver where you’d still see a sizable fireball. If that fireball was dissipated in a longer barrel it might have been able to generate the extra velocity you’re seeing. Just a guess on my part. Great video.
1776 is a great number, getting nearly 1000fpe from a 357 even out of a rifle really surprised me, highly impressed by both and may even try using those 44’s for next deer season (or remmington green and white box 180grain jsp). Also I prefer cloth with all tests regardless of firearm, caliber, or weather. I’m good either way just keep ur consistent. Great video
I think Henry and Hornady owe you some commissions b/c you just sold me on that 44. Holy smokes. That was an awesome test and thanks for the extra verifications.
I personally prefer the cloth! Rare to see naked intruders! 😂 Thanks for doing what you do!
Always love a good levergun! Edit to add: I think keeping the cloth with rifle rounds is good! I don't usually see clothing represented in rifle round tests from the manufacturer's videos.
A test like this would be good if you could use a piece of deer hide that is moist enough to simulate live conditions. We used the 44 mag on deer with excellent results. My daughter hit one at 120 yards. Baseball entry and softball size exit
The energy dump from both is something else!
I love your videos, man. You're fun to watch and very informative. Keep 'em coming!
Those Henry lever guns are great. I have the 357 myself. And any caliber in the Hornady Lever Evolution have proven to be top shelf rounds for me. Nice video.
Good lord!! That was fantastic! Either one of those would be devastating on 2 or 4 legged animals. The 20” barrels seem like a magic combination. Awesome test good sir 👍🇺🇸
Excellent test. Those loads are great for hunting. Lever .357 and 44 mag rifles really take those cartridges up a level.
Those high readings are actual velocity. The barrel is actually driving these rounds to impressive speeds. I was shocked when I did my tests. Impressive performance.
