Wolf 5.45x39 55gr Soft Point Ballistics Gel Test Results
Just finished up testing the Wolf 55gr 5.45x39 soft point round from my Iron Clad Armory AK-74 variant. The test was shot at 15 ft, 58 degrees, and 300 ft of elevation and the Clear Ballistics "FBI spec" (their term, not mine) gel block. Results: -2742fps, 917 ft/lbs energy -The round expanded pretty well -Penetration 14.25'' Here's the video of the test: Wolf 5.45x39 Soft Point Gel Test HD Video Link
