Making Commies Great Again: 7.62x39mm Hornady Black 123gr SST Gel Test

There aren't many domestically produced, premium, defense oriented loads for the 7.62x39mm but it doesn't get much more American than ammo with a Gadsden flag on the box. In this video we test 7.62x39mm Hornady Black 123gr SST by shooting it into calibrated 10% ordnance gelatin from a Romanian WASR 10/63 to assess terminal performance and we capture stunning high speed video of the event.
