ballistic testing

Ballistic testing involves evaluating how firearms and ammunition perform by firing projectiles into controlled environments. This process assesses factors like accuracy, penetration, ricochet, and damage to materials. Typically conducted in specialized labs, ballistic testing helps manufacturers improve safety, develop data for law enforcement, and evaluate the effectiveness of protective gear. It provides valuable insights into how different bullets interact with targets, enabling informed decisions on firearm and ammunition design, as well as understanding potential impacts in various scenarios.
