Description
How does Caleb’s 350 Legend handload perform in ballistic gel? At the Brownells Big Springs range, he fires one round from 25 yards into an FBI ballistic gel block and examines the wound channel. This is the same load featured in the Brownells 350 Legend reloading video.
The Hornady projectile passes through the block, so Caleb cannot measure its recovered diameter or total penetration depth. The visible channel shows substantial expansion, beginning roughly 2½ inches from the entry point. Watch the test to see the result and hear Caleb’s assessment for deer season.
