PAC-T Test: A Bullet with Terrific Terminal Performance, but it jams (sometimes)

23 hours ago

Today is the final showdown between three top 9mm self defense rounds, the 115 gr. Corbon DPX, the 115 gr. Barnes TAC-XPD, and the 147 gr. Buffalo Bore. Its a series of three tests you might say is a bullet torture test, but in the end, one of these bullets will win this competition. Along the way, we found that one brand of ammo started to jam in my HK VP9 pistol. That sure threw a monkey wrench into our test. Check it out to see how this all plays out.
