Nice test on two very good rounds! Love me some .22 WMR. #jellytime I did a little test last weekend on the Speer Gold Dot vs Hornady Critical Defense in .22 WMR. Shot from Ruger Single Six 5.5" bbl. I shot into three 2.5 gallon Supertech DEF plastic jugs placed sideways, so about 10+ inches wide per jug. These jugs are heavy wall tough plastic. Both rounds did really well. Great expansion busting through 3 to 4 layers of plastic. A few rounds stopped in second jug, a couple broke the 5 layer of plastic, but did not fully penetrate third jug. Both round had great expansion and weight retention. I estimate 20"+ of penetration, which is great at 7 yards. I will give the edge to Speer Gold Dot with a little more expansion and didn't lose as many copper petals. The Critical Defense lost a lot of petals and the ramaining petals were hanging straight out from bullet, rather than wrapped around the bullet. Also shot some Hornady V Max, but it went through jugs and never found any. Ive done those before and never got any expansion, but found the polymer tips in jug. #juggytime

Another great comparison test. As beautiful as the V- shock expanded, I think it fell a little short on penetration for self defense applications. I think the Gold Dot would be a better choice for that particular barrel length. If I had a very short barrel perhaps the V-Shock might be a better choice as the Gold Dot might not expand enough. More tests would be needed to be sure.
