Gelatin Test

I finally found the time to shoot some gelatin. I shot two 79gr DRT .223 rounds from my Colt MT6601 from 10' and one Prvi Partizan 75gr HPBT OTM. The DRT ammo worked as claimed, came apart, and produced a large cavity. The Prvi penetrated significantly deeper and the bullet is visible at THE 14.75" mark.

Interestingly, the DRT behaved similar to the result with the glue slime but the Prvi behaved completely differently. In glue slime, the Prvi came apart and fractured into many small pieces. In gelatin, it retained its mass. Gelatin is a solid at shooting temperature but glue slime is a very viscous fluid.
