Title: Nice Chrono testing

This guy tests three different rounds with three different platforms. I am pretty unimpressed with the loose Glock barrel.

If you look at Buffalo Bore's claim of 1350fps from a 5" barrel, it basically came out dead on through the SIG P220.  Since the Glock G20 has a shorter 4.6" barrel it wouldn't be expected to match the P220.  I find in my own testing by swapping in a tight chambered barrel in my Glock 20 adds about 25fps give or take 5fps.  All in all though the stock Glock barrel in this test did okay, only 20fps less on average over what Buffalo Bore claims their own G20 managed.  And about the looser chamber of the Glock G20, if enough dirt/grime were to enter the picture in possible life and death scenario it would probably be the last gun still shooting rounds of ammo after all others failed.  So there is give and take.

On a side note I was happy to see Buffalo Bore ammo performing up to their claims.  That's becoming more and more rare these days in the world of 10mm!  So thumbs up to Buffalo Bore!  And even though they weren't a part of this test, Hornady's new and improved velocity 10mm loads are actually doing what they claim too.

So I watched the video noted reliability issues with all three of his firearms. What do you guys think Ammo issues or firearm issues.

When considering that chronographs don't always agree with one another, and that no two barrels are the same, I got pretty much identical results with the ammo shot in the video  out of my stock G20-SF.
