  • round nose or hollow point, fuck it i dont want to get hit by either, both is enough to send you 6 feet deep

  • in soviet russia jug shoot you.

  • Just get a 12g buckshot. Whatever it hits...it devestates.

  • thats a grim bullet :/

  • BTW, @0:47 "If this was a bad guy, he'd probably still be firing at the police officer." No he wouldn't! He just got shot in the abdomen/torso area with a .45 you stupid asshole! The bad guy would drop like a sack of bricks.

  • @armenianesh818 i know, fucking retarded and inexperienced voice-over.

  • @0:15 that's a Speer Gold Dot in .45 ACP, @1:13 that's a Federal Hydra-shok in .40 S&W, and @1:49 that's a Winchester Ranger-T in 9mm.

  • i guess that water jug had a mushroom allergy

  • They didn't mention that since hollow points fragment on impact they won't go through the target and hit someone who is behind. So if a cop does have to shot someone the person across the street buying gas does not get hit. Or the little kid riding his bike.

  • The cop should not be used with Hollow Point bullet. It is suitable to war, not arrests and chases

  • Lol I have a hallow point. Oh no's...

  • officers in the US use hollow point bullets on some dude who is running away with a TVset????you suppose to exercise and catch him by foot and handcuff 1on1, if you are unable to do that you are all just a bunch of donut eating, fat, mustage wearing ass pussies...

  • Too bad they are illegal now...

  • Comment removed

  • @seppukuification925 i think your comment got deleted....they dont want the others to know the truth D:

  • @epicduckeh6 hollow points?!? i have a box of them here know where do u live

  • @the357goesBANG i live in hell, good luck getting there :3

  • @epicduckeh6 only in new jeasry.

  • Yeah... Hollow points work both ways guys. Cops aren't bullet proof.

  • i wish they still made the black talon they showed at the end of the vid i know they made rangers but i just want those black beast of a bullets back in my magazine

  • someone gave the presenter the wrong information

  • In Argentina hollow points are only legal for hunting and firing in the shooting range. For defense the only legal point is the FMJ. This means, if a criminal infiltrates your home, by defending yourself firing at him you could be hurting your family, even your neighbours!!!

    Not only this, even cops can't use hollow points!!! Imagine an armed confrontation in the middle of the city, every civilian near is at serious risk!!!

    My god...

  • @svenneri FMJ bullets actually penetrate and go beyond the target further than hollow points. hollow points transfer more kinetic energy to the target than FMJ

  • 1:07 "Criminal?" Most of the time, it's innocent civilians killed by overzealous police officers

  • Ouch!

  • The narrator was incorrect about the rounds he introduced. FMJ does not make a bigger entrance wound, and a HP that fragments is a shitty HP. They're designed to retain as much weight as possible after expanding. WOW this passes for ed tv?

  • Use them to hurt animals for food but not to kill somebody

  • @TheShadiboy1 What if this "somebody" was going to kill you or someone innocent?

  • Wow, Ive been loaded with fmj. I will now load with HP's.

  • pretty much a round nose bullet will leave a small hole all the way through someone and a hollow point will rip and tear a big hole through someone and will still go all the way through most of the time. Also the hollow point is better st slaming someone on their back since all that kinetic engergy hits them at once instead of it just going staight through it

  • you want some of the "dum dums"?

  • exploding a milk jug doesnt demonstrate whether a bullet will penetrate far enough to destroy vital organs or penetrate far enough through the front of the torso increasing lethality by increasing chances of a spinal column hit.

    Also failure of test to demonstrate what happens to a hollowpoint when it gets plugged up with clothing material when the bullet passes through the persons clothing.

    soft point or ballistic tip are the best if your caliber shoots them.

  • What if he was wearing body armor?

  • @mrslapbob He'd most likely be wounded, but not dead, or bleeding inside his torso..

  • @mrslapbob That's supposedly the downside; hollow point is better for tissue and "soft surfaces" while armor-piercing rounds counter body armor. Not to say hollow point would be completely uneffective against bodyarmor, but I'm tempted to say normal rounds would do a better job.

    Don't take my word for it tho, I'm not an expert, just doing some research for hobby writing. ;)

  • This is one of the most ignorant videos on bullets I've ever seen! I'm saddened to see this posted by a user claiming "science" as part of their name. Videos like this are why people are afraid of guns! Please do your own research rather than listening to people like this?

  • @kup9984 Is that a question or statement?

  • 'Greater stopping power' = 'better for murdering people'. Scary to think the Met in England now use these.

  • my dad gave me a hollow point bullet and i wanted to know what was it so i went here and then i realize i have a bullet that i want to friking fire!!! :D

  • Anders Behring Breivik used Hollow-point in the Norwegian massacre...

  • @donutVIP Dont screw around with any bullets...any bullet can bring down any animal if put in the right spot!

  • STICKS AND STONES MAY BREAK MY BONES...but hollow points explode on impact

  • Unfortunately, people are not water jugs. At pistol velocities, the surrounding wound cavity is temporary. Other than the hole created by the diameter of the bullet, it's temporary. Whereas a rifle round creates a permanent (surrounding) wound cavity. Pistols rounds are fancy pointed sticks. Poke a hole in the right spot, you get the desired effect.

  • @jasonp825 Yes, but it gives you the basic idea.

  • @Bungie "overkill" really bullets were designed to kill. Grow up throw rocks and give peace a chance and hope that saves you. Hollow points less likely to over penetration ,thus lowering accidental shootings. Do research before mouthing off.

  • Dont screw around with these bullet it can bring down a deer

  • So: remember to wear your cevlarvest when you go outside. It´s a cruel world where even the police wants to kill and not to arrest! Wow.. like in Robocop. Kill > arrest....

  • Hollow points seem like over kill.

  • @BungieX2000 Better to have overkill then underkill.

  • wow they have they're info completely wrong at the beginning of this. they said round noses make bigger holes and hollow points are supposed to fragment. actually, round noses are supposed to penetrate deeper, but don't leave a larger hole in terms of diameter, and hollow points are supposed to expand, not fragment, in order to create a larger wound channel while retaining mass for maximum penetration. but anyone who knows anything about guns knows that.

  • @412fish0828 you didn't actually expect them to get that RIGHT, did you?

  • I love how people say "Oh, a wimpy little 9mm, har har!" I would LOVE to shoot one of them in the chest, or even arm, with one. I bet that they wouldn't just sit there like some damn superman, laughing. Most of them say they would. Upgrade that to a 9mm hollow point in the chest, and your looking at a guy on the ground. You guys do realize that most firearm deaths are from the .22? That thing is almost the size of a fly.

  • Hollow points are NASTY enough said !!

  • "hitting an organ, cutting nerves or severing an artery, therfore stopping the target"

    Stopping?

    I think it goes a little further than that...

  • @ncorva

    hahahahaha you're right on that one

  • @ncorva lmao I know right, as if they're just gonna be like "Ok, you severed several nerve endings, arteries and hit my liver, I'm just gonna stop what I'm doing now. Have a nice day!"

  • Well neither matters if you are using a .50 call instead of a wimpy 9mm lol

  • A bullet going through a target is bad, you want all the energy inside the target.

  • That is the whole idea behind the hollow points. I wouldn't carry anything less then my trusty hollow point.

  • hehë_ANY_gUÿs_wÅñt_t0_chAt_wIt­h_me

  • the art of killing which we have perfected.

  • The police and use hollow-point bullets and stop a crimial in one hit....so the criminal can do the same

  • did this video just say which has the greater stopping power? This is like ammunition for dummies book

  • stopping and killing seem to be confused in this video...

    completely ridiculous.

  • Conversely, on the streets, a hollow point also gives the criminal more chance of stopping the officer, with one shot.

  • Hollow point is less acurate and less distance and round point is the opposite

  • @EndofDays213 My friend the only time this may be a factor is in really long range shooting, wich is still a very insignificant factor. Especially in pistols what you have mentioned is null and void. Im not trying to be mean but that is the way it is.

  • @strakill Yea I Know LOL Thanks Though.

  • Perfect vid. thank you FirstScienceTV

  • anyone ever been shot? A 9mm is quite painful beyond description...

  • I wouldn't under estimate a round nose either. That thing can still punch a clean hole through a lung, heart etc. A hot piece of lead piercing you regardless of type will take the fight out of you. It's all about shot placement.

  • Hollow Points are banned for use in war. Imagine if that stray shit hit a civilian, GG.

  • @Soneoak Hollow points banned in war seems weird, considering we have nuclear bombs.

  • Thats why do not buy .45 acp black talon bullets cuz its FMJ!!! buy the remington UMC HP or HPJ

  • Thats why do not buy .45 acp black talon bullets cuz its FMJ!!! buy the remington UMC HP or HJP!!!

  • By criminal, do they mean a retarded person having a fit? Or someone who got high and can't understand commands to get on the ground? Protect and serve? My ass.

  • "similar to a flower" yea a flower of death

  • they used a Federal HydaShock hollow point bullet. Try the newer Federal HST its amazing.

  • this is only one compare, what about accuracy and distance?

  • That's ScienceTV?

    That sounds like a propaganda of a Nazi-police state in 1984.

  • In Soviet Russia the gun fires you

  • Hollow Points should be reserved to millitary, and should not be available non millitary/police...

    They are made for killing, not stopping... Its sick how positively this vid says that they are better for stopping someone, you can easily stop someone by shooting someone twice or triple in the legs, than blowing up entire organs!

  • @ysrock Do that and get sued to hell for causing "pain and suffering." Just kill the son of a bitch. He tried to kill you.

  • @TheWitnesserer Every criminal is not a murder

  • @notis23 Of course not, but it's impossible to know that especially when you're faced with an armed assailant.

  • @TheWitnesserer Then again, just shoot him with FJP, having HP legal, who says he wont use HP against you?

  • @notis23 HPs are so yesterday. I use a phaser gun to defend myself. >=)

  • @TheWitnesserer and where do yall get this shiny newtech Phaser? srly.

  • @GoGoVengo I got my first as a standard issue weapon while I was serving aboard the USS Enterprise. Got an updated model when I was transfered over to the USS Voyager. =)

  • HP round are banned from use on the battlefield due to the Hague convention of 1899

  • HP round are banned from use on the battlefield due to the Hague convention of 1899 and do you understand the term stopping power?

  • @SonnyJWright Yeah funny enough you can't use them in war, but police in US, UK and some other countries uses them...

    Besides that its legal in the US, for private use...

  • @SonnyJWright Some other asshole I've been "arguing" with (though the argument ended long ago when I completely devoured his ethos) doesn't understand the concept of hydrostatic shock and stopping power either. Neither does he acknowledge the effects of the Hague Conventions. Some people.

  • You can shoot me with full metal jacket for $10,000.

  • @frenchfrys12 Let me shoot you in the face and we got a deal

  • @SonnyJWright No, I meant through the torso, where a hollowpoint will kill you before you hit the ground. I'm not sure about full metal jackets.

  • @frenchfrys12 Depends on where the wound is. Any round through the heart will kill you, but through the stomach, lungs, liver, etc., a FMJ round makes a clean cut and might not kill immediately. A hollow point will make such a massive wound that death would occur in seconds.

    There's also the phenomenon of hydrostatic shock, where the impact of a hollow point projectile will cause brain hemorrhaging due to the transfer of energy from the bullet to the rest of the body via interstitial fluids.

  • imagine if the milk jug was a head

  • FMJs make bigger holes and Hollowpoints fragment? What? No, you idiot, FMJs make small holes, HPs make big holes, and crappy HPs fragment.

  • @zachj589 Winchester's discontinued Black Talon HPs fragment. And they're well-made.

  • @TheWitnesserer No, they still sell them. They aren't labeled black talon anymore but are the ranger t series and they only market to law enforcement but can still be bought by consumers if you can find them.

  • @makun16 Ah, Ranger T, that's what they're called now! Thanks! I forgot what the heck they relabeled them to. My uncle still has several boxes of the old Black Talons and the bastard's always showing them off to us whenever we get together to shoot.

  • @TheWitnesserer Correction, They are the Ranger SXTs.

  • @makun16 Alright. I'll check 'em out at the closest gun shop here. Been meaning to get a hold of some. Thanks a bunch, bro.

  • @TheWitnesserer Good luck trying to find them at your local gun shop. Online is about the only place I can find them. Cheaperthandirt has them in 9mm.

  • @makun16 The guys over here said they could get them, but it might be a lot pricier than usual. Probably gonna do the online thing.

  • @TheWitnesserer For what they are and marketed to law enforcement only, that is to be expected. Still cheaper than paying $25 for a box of 20 for another brand. Winchester gives you 50. Doubletap also makes some fierce loads.

  • Wow, this announcer sucks. Using subversive speech to make it seem like hollow points are better for 'stopping' is so damn ignorant. Hollow points are meant to kill, kill, kill, not stop. And what if a civilian gets hit by these bullets?

    And the fat fuck will hopefully receive one of those hollow points in his skull.

    Lol, fuck the police.

  • @texaschizophrenic lol, newb

  • @vxbinaca That's all you can come up with? I've seen better WoW trolls.

  • @texaschizophrenic i haven't, because I don't play WoW and that wasn't me in that video.

  • @vxbinaca /facepalm "Sir you have lost your internet privileges."

  • Stopping a target? You mean "kill" a target. Don't try to dance around it now. American police officers are population-size control officers. :P

  • i prefer a sword to decapitate .......it will be a good lesson for the bad guy next time .....

    .....what a dumpshit

  • it gives the same stopping power to criminals also.. whats the point..?

  • hooray for guns and death and violence!

  • EXPLODE THE BAD GUYS, dont just shot them in the foot to prevent them escapeing or in arm to avoid them acting, nope you shot them dead so they cant be put on trial!

  • @FusionNinjin it takes alot more shoting skills to hit a arm or a leg, then its just easyer to shot for the body.

  • @FusionNinjin and save us all some money

  • @FusionNinjin Yeah! eventually shoot them in the face, so they can't be recognized if necessary.

  • @tfmercedez Especially helpful if you kill the wrong guy. Win-win situation!

  • @tfmercedez :D, might aswell bring a can of gaz aswell to burn the body, leave nothing behind :D

  • @FusionNinjin The only time a police officer will discharge his weapon is if he feels his life is in danger. They don't go around shooting people for no reason. If someone pulled a gun on you, what would you do? I would think you would want them to not shoot you. Shooting someone in the foot will wound them, but will not (in most instances) make them drop their gun and they will probably shoot you out of rage even if they really weren't going to shoot you in the first place.

  • @FusionNinjin I must not be the first, but are you retarded? "Just shoot em the foot"? Have fired a handgun before? Hitting a running target in the foot isn't like a video game. Either way, a hollow point 9mm isn't going to kill most people, but it will put them down in pain. Even a 45 HP will have a hard time killing someone outright. In addition to the fact that for Officers to be able to shoot at a target, they must be shot at. I don't care if that guy dies or not, he was obviously guilty.

  • @IIKiboshII you're right. gunshot wounds aren't like they are in the movies. especially when the target is high on drugs. i read one reliable report where a guy shot someone with a .357 6 times, reloaded, fired 6 more times, reloaded AGAIN, fired 6 MORE times and the target was still breathing! he was on PCP if i remember right.

  • @FusionNinjin That's not the whole point,then you don't have an answer of why he/she started shooting like crazy.I think hollow points are better off working with the military then officers or CIA

  • "If this was a bad guy on the street, he would've exploded on impact"

  • well... they should have used a 1 million fps camera to show us :P

  • hahahahahaha its officer farva 

  • reminded me of chidori and rasengan, the way the water tanks burst.

  • @futboi91

    wow really narutard? gtfo

  • "One in the head, you know he's dead"

  • @enigma800 always double tap Ive seen to many people survive brain shots to take it for granted also I wonder where the people in the video get there info I LOLd at 0:10 when they said that FMJs make biger holes sereosly now

  • @enigma800 Beatrix Kiddo disagrees!

  • @Slayerx49 LOL!

  • lol that jugs just vaporizes from the hollow point

  • um....ok.....ouch....

  • *crappy italian accent* Oh nooo, it'sa Goomba, better STOP him! *crappy italian accent*

  • @antoniooo33 Only way to make sure the bad guy stops what he is doing.

  • @Tilex1990 The only reason you would use a firearm, is if somthing inhuman was about to be done to you, or someone else.

  • @JustinDejong Tell that to the US military snipers using OTM (open tip match) bullets in their 308 cal rifles.

  • @stefo88 Well, without a weapon, you cant keep the peace.

    Without a weapon, you cant defend freedom.

    And i find it really odd you think about weapon lovers private parts.

  • @QuincyKintay Most police departments teach whats called a failure drill, shoot 2 to body, 1 to head and repeat till the badguy is down.

  • @UrInterweb Actually, there are an equal number of hollow points and FMJs, hollow points just work at killing badguys better.

  • @postkip If you knew what would happen with no police, you would know how horrible of a statement you just made.

  • @500SWMAGOPERATOR Good luck concealed carrying a 500, and you would probably end up shooting a friendly through a hostile.

  • Jesus Christ American laws are really fucked up....

  • i wouldn't want to be hit with either of those... but thats just me

  • So human beings when they go bad, are called "targets"?

    Jesus.

  • LOL kids fighting about guns

  • Chuck Norris eats hollow point bullets for breakfast.

  • DONT MAKE ME POP A HOLLOW POINT IN YOUR ASS

  • In Russia, Neo didn't stop bullets, the bullets stopped him...

    Definately not something you'd want to be on the receiving end, unless you have a decent body armor. Hollow points are fairly useless against kevlar vests and such. But then again, a common street thug isn't likely to have one anyway.

  • in usa these bullets are legal?

  • @FOTOMANIAVR No, you can purchase hollow points from any store that sells ammunition

  • @CMA212 thanks for info :)

  • Aren't hollow points illegal??

  • @Pigroota they are, it was used long time ago but this was so cruel so they decided that they should be illegal

  • @Pigroota Not if you work for the law enforcement! :D

  • @Pigroota No, they are not.

  • I've heard that hollow points can rip limbs off or something.

  • @lordofgangstas Wherever you heard that, dont ever listen to them again, cause whoever said that was an idiot.

  • I'll stick with my frangible bullets. They do much more damage and dump ALL their energy inside the target.

  • @frenchfrys12 Frangible bullets are gimmicky crap that you pay too much for. Frangibles have very little weight retention, and in many different tests they have been proven to have very shallow penetration and lack of stopping power. The little fragments don't have enough weight to travel far enough to hit any vitals. Weight retention and uniform expansion is best, period. Visit boxotruth(dot)com to see the truth about frangibles, and get yourself some good hollow points.

  • @MrMeatBullet I tested hollow points with frangibles on targets such as wood and fruit, not steel. They are VERY useful against hunting big game and dropping terrorists one one shot. My hollow points have failed me, and my frangibles are worth the price. Good brands ex. Extreme Shock, can blow apart a watermelon or hollow out wild boars Body cavity. Also, hollow points have even worse penetration and are only effective under these circumstances:

    1. the Target is thick

    2. The Target is soft

  • @frenchfrys12 I find it hilariously ironic that you point out Extreme Shok ammo, because the website that I told you to visit tests two versions of their frangible ammunition. Both faild horribly, penetration was awful and the 'fangface' round they used didn't even fragment going through sheets of drywalll.

    There is a reason LEO uses high quality hollow points like Gold Dots, Ranger T series and others like those, it's because they work and they trust a solid performer to work.

  • @Letsmakeasamich I have my sources. Its called "I bought them and they perform better than my hollowpoints". Now have you ever shot a gun before?

  • @MrMeatBullet Furthermore, frangibles are in current use with the police and Special Op's. They don't ricochet, and deliver all their energy on the target. I've seen them go through bone and ligaments without stopping. My point is simple, frangibles are superior in reliability, stopping power, penetrating tough clothing. Hollow points are superior in price, media attention, and brainwashing.

  • @frenchfrys12 You are incorrect on every point. Police in this country DO NOT use frangibles, because of the simple facts I pointed out. Air Marshalls at one point did use them, because of the risk of poking a hole in the plane with a conventional bullet. Delivering energy on a target doesn't do anything to stop someone, wound channels and blood loss are all that matter. Your 'point' is invalid, and if you had went to the website I showed you, you would know this.

  • @Letsmakeasamich Navy seals use frangibles, FBI and a portion of the marine core uses them. Since most terrorists/criminals don't wear body armor, they perform their job they are supposed to do, rather than nagging at what its NOT supposed to do.

  • I don't think I would want to get hit with either bullet.

  • @ondfritz2

    yeah me neither

  • i'll think twice next time i walk down the street smoking a joint

  • <
