      Who Tee Who! What Did You Do? I love your videos but you gotta make this a more apples to apples comparison.... I saw your pocket pistols in Gel video but how about you do a new Battle of the little guys video with 22lr vs 25acp vs 22mag vs 32acp vs 380acp against Soda Cans. How many cans can they penetrate? Use 40 grain bullet for 22lrs and 45-50 grain for 22mag so its fair for the 25acp. Then maybe do a video with standard pressure 115 grain 9mm against 110 grain 38spl...in Gel and Water Jugs test. The 357 mag doesn't even have to show up at this party because he wins every time. WHO-TEE-WHO

  • @Prussia_is_not_yet_lost.
    @Prussia_is_not_yet_lost. 4 года назад +6

    Thats interesting. Yes these 380 ACP 95 Grainers often if loaded to weak (like making only 750 fps) will not make it through an 2mm sheet of metal. But loaded to about 850 fps these approach 3/4 of 9x19 penetration levels (9mm is then 124 grain and 1035 fps for around 300 ft-lbs). I can imagine the 380 ACP doing not much at an opponent but I consider that caliber as well only as an hit and run caliber to fend off attackers while getting distance to them myself. However I have shot 400 lbs calves through the thorax from one side and the bullets exited the other side. As well I shoot 700 lbs heifers with the little 380 ACP pistol in the head and they fall immediatelly to the ground and are dead (dispatch shooting at slaughtering). So an normal loaded 380 ACP bullet will most likely punch a hole into center mass and penetrate the lung or even exit when the clothing of the attacker is not multi layered. The 380 ACP has around 150 ft-lbs of energy while an 22 LR out of an handgun has about 70 ft-lbs and my reloads out of my 357 mag 6" revolver clock at 411 ft-lbs energy. Round nose 380 ACP have better penetrating capability but less destructive power than the more common flat points.

    I love the smell of vaporized oranges in the morning :-D
    Oh how this warmed my old school .357 heart. That orange was _vaporized_ and it looked awesome. Let me spell that out: A W E S O M E! It's not like the other rounds didn't get the job done. Those oranges were stopped dead in their tracks, and there's no chance in you-know-where, that they'll cause any trouble. I did expect that .45 to wreak just a li'l more havoc, but it got the job done for sure. The .380 would probably be my go-to caliber for a small concealed, were I expecting to encounter oranges or ill-advised troublemakers, but for - well, what's it called in American - non-concealed carry, definitely .357 magnum.
    And for my own edc: small change, my wallet, my keys and a small plastic squirrel figurine my daughter gave me for Christmas when she was four years old :)
    Btw, if the're any armchair commandos out there, that start to lament over barrel length, projectile types, atmospheric inconsistencies, lack of tin foil hats, and all manners of armchair commando stuff, I'll just say: Go buy a bag of oranges! We're here because WhoTeeWho is all about puttin' a smile on your face - and that's what he does :-D

  • @philrichards5620

    Great video. I have always carried in 9mm. Mostly because it’s what I am used to from serving in the military. I trust my life with that round for both everyday carry and for home defense. I like to practice a lot when I can and the price is pretty cheap. I do have other calibers and the .45 I love to shoot with my 1911 but 9mm is my preference overall.

  • @louisbecker5941
    @louisbecker5941 4 года назад +3

    I've fired all those calibers- and a few more, however...
    When choosing my EDC, I went with the G19. I saw it as a good 'meet in the middle' between a substantial caliber, higher capacity, and practical concealability.
    Don't get me wrong, I have no problem with proficiency when it comes to larger calibers. I just find that I'm able to follow-up more accurately, and MUCH quicker with the 9. I can easily dump the same number of 9MM rounds into a bullseye in 1/3 less time than with the 45.
    I don't get preachy about it. And it makes no difference to me whether your EDC is a NAA Mini Revolver or a Desert Eagle. It all comes down to what works for you, what your needs are & what you're comfortable with.

A few years back when I got back into collecting firearms and shooting, I started fresh and I got my first 5 guns with practicality in mind...all meant to serve a purpose. Marlin 336 30-30 is my hunting rifle, Ruger GP100 357 mag is my woods sidearm and nightstand gun, Ruger Ec9s is my CCW, Mossberg 500 for hunting and because 12 guage, and an AR15 for the SHTF scenario (plus they just fun at the range). I've put a lot of time and work into my AR and my 357. I kinda wish I had saved the little extra for a Shield for my CCW, but I'm happy so far. Next was gonna be a Savage 22lr, but I decided to put "practicality" on the back burner for once and finally splurge on a hobby gun simply because I always wanted it. Since a real deal Colt SAA revolver is...well lets just say alot, I did my research and got one of the Italian remakes that are actually supposed to be pretty solid and accurate replicas. Got one with the 7.5 inch barrell in 45 Colt. Just waiting on their sloth-like expediting process. I can't wait to take her out to the range. With all that said, I think my GP100 will always be my main squeeze. There is just something about the simplicity of it combined with the punch a 357 packs and tuning it myself to the perfect trigger pull. Even my AR15 doesnt beat it and I dont think the Colt SAA will either. Btw, you showed them oranges whose who...or whose tee who! Yeah, i stink at being funny, take care

  • @dogbig02

    I Really like shooting my larger caliber fire arms, but the ammo is expensive unless you load your own. As as for practicality ...... my experience is that I practice with what I'll carry. My .380 is good in the pocket; It's light weight, and extra ammo is light, and not too expensive. However, my .22 WMR is also light weight, extra ammo is very light weight, and the 30 round magazine capacity is really all that I need in my area.

    My go-to carry pistol is a CZ 83 chambered in .380 Auto. I keep a CZ 82 (chambered in 9 Makarov) in my car. My Browning Challenger III (.22 Long Rifle) was my car gun for a long time.

    I carry the Beretta Pico in 380 ACP + 1 or 2 spare mags. That is for minimalistic clothing. However in a pinch it is hard to hit POA with that gun. In colder climates I would suggest to carry the Ruger SP101 in 357 magnum in 2" barrel length. In those one can use own reloads of 9mm power or 40 S&W power loaded ammo with lead bullets. If I could afford I would carry the SP101, but neighter the wallet nor the local climate allows to carry that heavy and larger revolver. Considered with the SP101 one must carry at least 2 spare speed strips or loaders if not even 3 speed loaders and thos are round bulky things. But I would probably hit better with an revolver with loads in the 9mm power range. But the Pico is one of the smallest 380 ACP pistols so that has the best chance to be on me all the time while an bulky and heavy SP101 may sit at home when its needed most.

    I know this is an old video, but very useful information. Thankfully, not in an area where people are the issue, so more concerned about critters I might run into than people wanting to do me harm, so it’s either a lightweight snubby .22 LR or a .44 mag, depending on what I think I could run into. I think if I was going to do it over again, I’d probably go 10mm instead of .44mag, but I’ve had the same .44 for … 29 years now, hard to retrain old muscle memory. Love the videos!
