45 Colt Barnes Vortex All Copper Hollow Point Meat Target Test | Is This Self Defense Ammo Good?

In this video, I put the Barnes VOR-TX .45 Colt 200gr all-copper hollow points to the test — chronograph numbers, meat and water jug penetration, and bullet recovery. Spoiler alert: the results were underwhelming. I break down why these lightweight factory loads might not cut it for serious defense or hunting work. Then I compare their performance side-by-side with my custom 300gr and 330gr duplex loads, built for deep penetration and maximum energy. Watch to see which load delivers the real stopping power in .45 Colt! #45Colt #BarnesVORTX #BallisticsTest #MeatTest #ChronographTest #HollowPoint
