Copper is a metal that "work hardens" meaning that as it is swaged, pressed, folded, stretched, extruded, etc, it becomes harder. Maybe the rifling squeezing on the bullet helped it maintain its shape, in addition to copper already being *much* harder and less malleable than lead.
I have a Glock 20 & 29. I've found that most 'off the shelf' 10mm ammo is loaded fairly close to .40 S&W spec. The 3 that I've been impressed with are HPR, Underwood and DoubleTap. Each of them get about 1250 fps from the G29 and 1300+ from the G20.
+Darrell McMillan i have a glock 29 with a 23 pound recoil spring and guild rod and a 6 in lonewolf barrel and i use the new extreme defender round and it works fine ,i use it in a glaco ankle glove for ccw it is my everyday carry gun
Thats the crappy thing about the 10mm. The "affordable" stuff is horribly underpowered, the good stuff is stupid expensive. 10mm is one of those rounds that should push you into reloading because you save a metric ton of money doing so.
Since Lehigh Defense makes their Extreme Penetrators in most sizes of handgun calibers how about comparing all handun calibers to see which of them will go through the bullet-proof glass vs stopped by the glass starting with .380 then 9mm, 357 mag, .44 mag., .45,acp and we saw the 10mm. This is great information for both sides of the glass. My guesses are: no to the .380acp and the .45acp but yes to the 9mm, 357mag., .44mag.
Love it! Please, if you can, can you repeat this test, but have ballistic gel behind the bulletproof glass? I would love to see the penetration that the XP bullet has "left" after going through the "Bullet Proof"glass. I'd love to see just how much power it has left, if any. The ballistic gel behind the glass would give me some indication.
Thank you! I had NO IDEA that was possible, that was like a laser beam. That bullet punched through that glass like paper absolutely amazing. I dont think I would want that bullet but the Extreme Defender is what my eyes are on...Like any tool the penetrator has its place I just dont think I need that tool...but WOW! it really is unstoppable.
Can you try two additional follow up test. 1. Since the bullet went through the glass using a Glock 40. Test the same bullet using the Glock 20 and 29 in 10mm as well. This should show if the additional velocity of the longer barrel made all the difference or if and when barrel length was a deciding factor. 2. Also try same brand of bullet in the other Glock MOS guns and their respective relatives. This should give more data to link to the first test as well as provide more supporting data across multiple areas.
Obviously, a few boxes of that ammo is now on the list of things I really want. I found it unbelievable that the bullet looked like it could be reloaded. Thumbs up for the bullet design and production values.
+HeavyHitter5150 Quite frankly, no. You don't. On top of the fact that I have never ever seen an example of an innocent bystander hit by a bullet that passed completely through a bad guy (not a miss, that's a different scenario), the 10mm is so versatile you can choose loads from 135gr all the way up to 220gr. So with proper bullet selection over penetration is a non-issue, just like every other handgun.
***** That has to do with capacity and follow up shots, not over penetration lol. Go ahead, find one example of someone hitting a bad guy center of mass and the bullet passing all the way through and hurting someone else. I'll be waiting...
Great video as usual. That is one hard hitting round. I like the frequent change in what you do. I am still partial to 22LR but like everyone else I shoot larger pistols and like to see you demonstrating it too. Thanks for sharing.
Bikkus Dikkus Then they should ban hands too, or being too tall or muscular. Having any of those gives you "cop killing abilities." Just imagine a tall, muscular guy with two hands, a danger to the country itself XD.
10mm is my every day carry (Glock 29) and I absolutely love the power of this round. I’ve had a lot of pistols throughout the years and a good 10mm load is Prime!! This video was helpful
Personally, I'm not overly fond of the G40. It has a really weird recoil impulse. I'd rather get a threaded g20 and throw a comp on it. Besides, everyone knows the g29 is the funnest to shoot.
I'm amazed the Lehigh solid bullet kept its shape so well. Seems like it might over-penetrate a bit in a SD situation though, lol. I have some LehighSD ammo in 9mm but I may rethink carrying it now.
10mm is where its at.Unfortunately it's hard to find off the shelf ammo 10mm that actually uses 10mm load specs.Underwood is close,but still a little short.10mm was designed to run a 50,000 psi chamber pressure
That's insane!!! Bullet didn't event shroom!!! Could reload it, shoot it at the glass, reload again and see how many times you can shoot the same bullet through it. Would have to make a bullet catching system though. Has he done a 500 s&w vs bulletproof glass?
I'm amazed at how undeformed the bullet is more than anything else. For some reason, Underwood seems to advertise this type of ammo as both "Extreme Penetrating" and "Extreme Defender". I couldn't imagine using something like this as defense ammo, all I can think about is over penetration, but it would be damn fun to shoot.
Over penetration like come on its rare enough that you'll even need it it would be more rare that someone will catch a stray behind the bad guy. Maybe in an apartment wouldn't be my first choice but yea chances are astronomical you'll hit a bad guy and an innocent person at the same time. Most people can't even hit the target they spray and pray them the people that may hit someone else by accident. Definitely more of self defense in the wilderness tho lol
I have a Glock 40, and thought this was really cool! I got ready to buy a few boxes and then realized that I'm never going to need to shoot through bulletproof glass, and at $2.00 a round, well, I already have some of Underwood's 220 grain hard cast flat nose, which is pretty bad-ass too. I have 1,000 rounds of Sellier & Bellot FMJ for target shooting, and I'll practice with the ly cool! I got ready to buy a few boxes and then realized that I'm never going to need to shoot through bulletproof glass, and at $2.00 a round, well, I already have some of Underwood 220 grain before I go into the mountains because that's what will be in the mag. Obviously this is not for home defense, since the bullet will likely wind up inside a neighbor's house two doors down.
Finally, a 10mm test. Lol. I figured it would go through with a hardcast bullet or a solid bullet like the lehigh xp. As far as the everyday 10mm ammo that the factories produce now, it's no where near it's original specs. they sure have watered it down. Back in 1983 when Jeff Cooper initially thought out the specs he wanted and performance he wished to achieve, Norma took on the challenge. Jeff wanted a round that was relatively short so it could feed in a semi-automatic, and potent enough to hit harder than the .45 auto and have more stopping power than the .357 magnum. The original loading was a 200gr bullet loaded to a minimum of 1200 feet per second. Norma at the time was the only company who was making it and boy did they have a winner. It blew the .45 out of the water and laid the smack down on the .357 since it was driving a 200gr bullet over 1200 feet per second. Those loads back then were really close to .41 magnum loads at the time. Unfortunately, the 10mm never really took off like it should have because of recoil and blast it caused when the fbi was training with it and the 10mm "fbi lite" round came about, and eventually they just shortened the case and the .40 caliber was born. Underwood loads the only true 10mm spec ammo that I know of, or atleast the most consistent as far as shot to shot deviation and accuracy. My everyday carry is a Glock 20 and I love it. Flat shooting and tack driving accurate. Slapped a lw standard length barrel in it to shoot my lead loads and couldn't be happier. 10mm is a great handloaders tool. You can get a lot of economy out of it, or you can shoot full loads and still have a very shootable load, especially with a Glock because of the heavy slide. The weight of the slide really tames the recoil. Anyways, great video. Been wondering if you were going to test the bpg with a few 10mm. Hope you enjoy the 40 mos. Going to pick one up myself as soon as my local shop gets another one in. Gotta love the 10...got to...
Times are changing. With the reintroduction of the 10mil via new models from several manufacturers and companies like Underwood who make read deal hot as hell 10mm ammo (consistently I may add!) and not only price it right but ship it to your door, many times with free shipping! I have a lot of faith in this round. All the power of the venerable .357mag but in auto format and even more versatile. You can't go wrong with this caliber imho.
You are using my EDC. The G40. Carry rounds at home is your UNDERWOOD Penetrators big brother the 200 gr. Liberty is my EDC when away from the house. Thanks for a GREAT VIDEO!
I am thinking since the regular 10mm fmj acted like a 9mm fmj, see if a 9mm leheigh penetrator will go through like the 10mm did. Also, since you have a 10mm, get yourself a 9x25 Dillon barrel. Smoking fast round.
+XxVeNoMxX Ballistics by the inch lists about a 100fps difference between a 4 inch barrel (g20) and a 6 inch barrel (G40) with buffalo bore 180 grain loads. This means about 200lb/f energy difference. Mind you I'm not arguing with more 10mm goodness.
I'm a union glazer I work with all different types of glass and there's no such thing as bullet proof glass it's a bullet resistant if you shoot it enough with a gun the bullets will eventually penetrate through regardless of the caliber
I've had my Glock 40 since the day it came out. Still waiting for the small plate that you need to put under the battery compartment in order to mount the Trijicon RMR07. Why Trijicon doesn't ship these with their $600 optics is beyond me.The G40 is a ton of fun to shoot, but it is massive even compared to my G20. Love the Xtreme Penetrators, so much WIN!
A homeless person with a FN 57. They wear up to 6 coats & pants at 1 time in nyc, they walk around with this snow suit of funk on. See if u could get threw their clothes.
We have always used 44 and 357's hollow points with a sheet metal screw it for penetration tests. I was going to try a 10mm this spring.I to just picked up a Glock 40 gen 4. Love the videos
Rounds like hollow points already break up inside of you. RIP rounds have awful ballistics and even more awful penetration and are extremely expensive, they're useless
get smoked Lil bitch the are AP rounds are just made to look really cool and scary. They don't come close to meeting FBI protocol for penetration or wound ballistics at all yeah I don't waste money on gimmicks
I want a glock 20, but in my area of Ca. 10mm ammo is non-existent, and they banned online ordering of ammo in my area also..... Talk about infringing on our rights........
No way that is a Glock 40. I watched this special one time that featured a drug-dealing gang banger. He pulled out his gun and said "This is my Glock 40, this is my problem solver." It looked a lot like one of those guns +Mattv2099 has been shooting lately. :)
Lol that was a Highpoint. I would prove it with a Screenshot of the vid but this is youtube :( Seems a lot of people think any old handgun is a Glock just because it's a handgun, as IV8888 discussed in an old video
+Boston Hatch search dea glock shoots himself and you'll see numerous copies here an the 'tube .... lots of other searches . The joke here is this "professional" refers to his glock as a "for tay" , which is the caliber and not the model. Plinkster has the (relatively new) model 40 ... in the 10 mm chambering .... so yea, not confusing at all :) To take confusion a step further you can shoot 40 in a 10mm (not a good idea, but works). One more step into confusion, the 40 is lovingly called the "10 mm short" sometimes :) When the FBI discovered it needed a milder round they cut down the case length. Everyone now owes me .02 cents
Wow...that is crazy ! I want a 10mm...but did not know the Extreme Penetrator would be that powerful...you would really have to be careful using that for defense mode.
Completely EPIC, what other moderately conventional rounds could retain full bullet shape after passing through bullet proof glass! Amazing!!! Thanks for the video!!!!
Great video as always. That was close range at the glass and would be interesting to see what maximum range is on fully penetrating the bullet proof glass just for statistics
Great video! I have the Glock 40 and I was considering the 10mm extreme penetrator or the Corbon 180 grain bonded core soft point for black bear defense loads. Your video shows the extreme penetrator load will have more than adequate penetration. A 40 caliber hole is better than a 357 size hole.
One will probably fire more than one round at a bear, especially if it is charging. So, that is why my bear mags are loaded with alternating Underwood SKU 242 (220gr HC) and SKU 648 XP.
Wow, didn't even deform the bullet in any obvious way! Least it didn't look like it. I was guessing it would have deformed the + shape flats a little bit. Pretty impressive! Gotta love solid copper bullets! I would like to see this same test, same bullet but in the other calibers of Underwood's XP loadings!
I'm surprised no one got all in their feelings about the G20 although this video is G40 model it has a thinner slide than 20. Usually people wanna get mad & start making comparison with G20 & revolver magnums. People ought to know u can't deny the G20 it's a beast.
hey 22plinkster, if you have any of that glass left, I'd like to see you revisit the 357 magnum with the lehigh defense extreme penetrator round. I would like to see if 357 mag could make it through with the right bullet.
Its not only how fast a bullet is it's what its made out of. Your not gonna get a lead bullet through a hard wall without it deforming and stopping most of the time.
You’re probably getting better than 1600fps out of a G40 with those 140gr XP’s. I love 10mm.. G29, 40Mos, and safe queens DW Kodiak and PM-7. I run only Underwood in most calibers, especially 10mm and 44mag, the G29 is within easy reach on every hike here in ID and its loaded with those very same UW 140gr Penetrators ;)
Did you try the .357 Sig round in the extreme penetrator as well? If not you do not have an accurate sampling. As a matter of fact to have an accurate comparison you'd have to shoot each earlier tested cartridge in the underwood Ammo extreme penetrator as well.
interesting that the UW load penetrd with only about half of the power of an AK-47 round. Which is the go-to round for this kind of thing. I think it shows the performance of this bullet design in combination with the cartridge weight/speed and caliber. And that's why the 10mm is admired. The other round was the equivalent of the .40 s&w, which ain't shabby by any means...I'd like to see the stock Lehigh Def round which is 1200fps, fired at the panel. To see how the bullet design aides penetration of this barrier......Nice test.
They should make the glock 10 standard issue for the military. Pretty decent sized mag and good power. Reminds me of the 1911 with a bigger mag to be honest.
All that force and it still didn't deform. That's one badass bullet.
Copper is a metal that "work hardens" meaning that as it is swaged, pressed, folded, stretched, extruded, etc, it becomes harder. Maybe the rifling squeezing on the bullet helped it maintain its shape, in addition to copper already being *much* harder and less malleable than lead.

I would love to see what the 40 s&w would do! With that round of course
I am thinking since the regular 10mm fmj acted like a 9mm fmj, see if a 9mm leheigh penetrator will go through like the 10mm did.
Also, since you have a 10mm, get yourself a 9x25 Dillon barrel. Smoking fast round.
Probably not. One of the biggest things to defeat body armor is bullet speed. 10mm moves substantially faster than 9mm
I think he meant the Dillon 9x25 is a 10mm case with a 9mm bullet - It's a fast powerful 9mm
The best millimeter!
My 42 is top dog because it has two more points than the 40 :)
They also make a .380 xtreme penetrator round for your 42. I'd be interested in seeing it's results vs the bulletproof glass!
+Josh Phillips That's a good idea!
+Josh Phillips The full Underwood/Lehigh XP product line!
the 42 sucks.
+Keith Gee No Glock sucks dummy!
Anytime I see Glock 40, I feel like I've seen the love of my life. I love that gun soo much.
7.62*25 tokarev
I now have some for my 380 Pico and my 9's !!! My life is worth it.!
glock 20 I wanna see the difference between that and the glock 40
+XxVeNoMxX
Ballistics by the inch lists about a 100fps difference between a 4 inch barrel (g20) and a 6 inch barrel (G40) with buffalo bore 180 grain loads. This means about 200lb/f energy difference.
Mind you I'm not arguing with more 10mm goodness.
I'm a union glazer I work with all different types of glass and there's no such thing as bullet proof glass it's a bullet resistant if you shoot it enough with a gun the bullets will eventually penetrate through regardless of the caliber
44 magnum 340 grain Buffalo Bore +p+
I've had my Glock 40 since the day it came out. Still waiting for the small plate that you need to put under the battery compartment in order to mount the Trijicon RMR07. Why Trijicon doesn't ship these with their $600 optics is beyond me.The G40 is a ton of fun to shoot, but it is massive even compared to my G20. Love the Xtreme Penetrators, so much WIN!
9mm xtreme penetrator. That way it is comparing apples to apples..
Nice vid. That is unbelievable. I only shot those glass with my 44 magnum. Can't believe a 10mm actually made it through as well.
A homeless person with a FN 57. They wear up to 6 coats & pants at 1 time in nyc, they walk around with this snow suit of funk on. See if u could get threw their clothes.
Nigga yu sound dumb as hell jus leave da comments dats why it’s been 2 years an ain’t nobody replied to these brain damaging words😂💀
some are probably federal surveillance or reconnaissance guys.
We have always used 44 and 357's hollow points with a sheet metal screw it for penetration tests. I was going to try a 10mm this spring.I to just picked up a Glock 40 gen 4. Love the videos
use the R.I.P ROUND ON IT
Rip rounds are a gimmick. I Wouldn't trust them.
Rounds like hollow points already break up inside of you. RIP rounds have awful ballistics and even more awful penetration and are extremely expensive, they're useless
get smoked Lil bitch the are AP rounds are just made to look really cool and scary. They don't come close to meeting FBI protocol for penetration or wound ballistics at all yeah I don't waste money on gimmicks
I want a glock 20, but in my area of Ca. 10mm ammo is non-existent, and they banned online ordering of ammo in my area also..... Talk about infringing on our rights........
+gunz-n-gadgets Take a drive to Vegas. Buy all you want and drop some $$$ in the slots while you are at it.
+gunz-n-gadgets People are leaving California for Texas. GTFO
Seriously, GTFO of that communist cesspool.
James Garvey I am as soon as i can take an early retirement. I'v been on my job for 17 years, 3 more years and i can retire.
Screw Texas. Come to Utah instead. SO many Californians move here, we''ve started to call it "the California 2 step"
Nice! I picked up my G40 a couple weeks ago. I'll have to get a box of the underwood now.
No way that is a Glock 40. I watched this special one time that featured a drug-dealing gang banger. He pulled out his gun and said "This is my Glock 40, this is my problem solver." It looked a lot like one of those guns +Mattv2099 has been shooting lately. :)
+Boston Hatch I have tried to find it... but I think Hulu has it. It was some National Geographic series called Drugs inc.
Lol that was a Highpoint.
I would prove it with a Screenshot of the vid but this is youtube :(
Seems a lot of people think any old handgun is a Glock just because it's a handgun, as IV8888 discussed in an old video
***** lol yeah I know, just saying for the people who don't get the joke.
+Boston Hatch
search dea glock shoots himself and you'll see numerous copies here an the 'tube .... lots of other searches .
The joke here is this "professional" refers to his glock as a "for tay" , which is the caliber and not the model. Plinkster has the (relatively new) model 40 ... in the 10 mm chambering .... so yea, not confusing at all :) To take confusion a step further you can shoot 40 in a 10mm (not a good idea, but works). One more step into confusion, the 40 is lovingly called the "10 mm short" sometimes :) When the FBI discovered it needed a milder round they cut down the case length.
Everyone now owes me .02 cents
+loves2shoot whats funny is not only does the so called dea agent shoot himself but he doesn't even know what model glock he has.....
Wow...that is crazy ! I want a 10mm...but did not know the Extreme Penetrator would be that powerful...you would really have to be careful using that for defense mode.
Underwood makes many 10mm extreme defense (XD) rounds. You have to choose the round that will do what you want.
Absolutely! Home defense rounds should not penetrate like this does or it's liable to kill neighbors.
I can’t believe how little deformation the Underwood projectile had after going through 2” of glass! That’s pretty amazing stuff.
Completely EPIC, what other moderately conventional rounds could retain full bullet shape after passing through bullet proof glass! Amazing!!! Thanks for the video!!!!
This is the third video I've seen on this ammo. Its looking to be a beast. May have to pick up a couple of boxes. Thanks for the video
And for such a powerful round, the Glock 40 handles it with ease. It's one nice shooting firearm.
Great video as always. That was close range at the glass and would be interesting to see what maximum range is on fully penetrating the bullet proof glass just for statistics
1:53 that smile = orders 💰
Great video! I have the Glock 40 and I was considering the 10mm extreme penetrator or the Corbon 180 grain bonded core soft point for black bear defense loads. Your video shows the extreme penetrator load will have more than adequate penetration. A 40 caliber hole is better than a 357 size hole.
No doubt it will penetrate but what about the terminal damage
One will probably fire more than one round at a bear, especially if it is charging. So, that is why my bear mags are loaded with alternating Underwood SKU 242 (220gr HC) and SKU 648 XP.
just got the G40 and I do use Underwood ammo. just insane pistol. ill be using it this deer season in Northern Wisconsin..
we need 10mm necked down to 30cal with this same bullet! i think it could be loaded hotter than 7.62x25 tokarev
Wow, didn't even deform the bullet in any obvious way! Least it didn't look like it. I was guessing it would have deformed the + shape flats a little bit. Pretty impressive! Gotta love solid copper bullets! I would like to see this same test, same bullet but in the other calibers of Underwood's XP loadings!
I'm surprised no one got all in their feelings about the G20 although this video is G40 model it has a thinner slide than 20. Usually people wanna get mad & start making comparison with G20 & revolver magnums. People ought to know u can't deny the G20 it's a beast.
hey 22plinkster, if you have any of that glass left, I'd like to see you revisit the 357 magnum with the lehigh defense extreme penetrator round. I would like to see if 357 mag could make it through with the right bullet.
That was awesome, I only wish I could find one of those G40's. I have yet to even see one in person, thank you for the great video.
Hey Plinkster, have you ever shot the bullet proof glass with the 7.62x25 TT?
Its not only how fast a bullet is it's what its made out of. Your not gonna get a lead bullet through a hard wall without it deforming and stopping most of the time.
I'm still waiting for more episodes of plinkster outdoors
You’re probably getting better than 1600fps out of a G40 with those 140gr XP’s.
I love 10mm.. G29, 40Mos, and safe queens DW Kodiak and PM-7. I run only Underwood in most calibers, especially 10mm and 44mag, the G29 is within easy reach on every hike here in ID and its loaded with those very same UW 140gr Penetrators ;)
I bought the Glock 29 and will carry 10mm Auto 140 Grain Xtreme Penetrator thanks to your test.
Did you try the .357 Sig round in the extreme penetrator as well? If not you do not have an accurate sampling. As a matter of fact to have an accurate comparison you'd have to shoot each earlier tested cartridge in the underwood Ammo extreme penetrator as well.
Best cop killer on the market 🙌🏻
Great video! Next time you should put some ballistics gel behind the glass.
interesting that the UW load penetrd with only about half of the power of an AK-47 round. Which is the go-to round for this kind of thing. I think it shows the performance of this bullet design in combination with the cartridge weight/speed and caliber. And that's why the 10mm is admired. The other round was the equivalent of the .40 s&w, which ain't shabby by any means...I'd like to see the stock Lehigh Def round which is 1200fps, fired at the panel. To see how the bullet design aides penetration of this barrier......Nice test.
Great show Plinkster...
Cheers
They should make the glock 10 standard issue for the military. Pretty decent sized mag and good power. Reminds me of the 1911 with a bigger mag to be honest.
I just built a poly80 version of this.
Rewatched the video.
Oh goody !
I’m gonna have fun with these
😁
