7 Home Defense Calibers Ranked (I Was Wrong About Half of Them)

6 of the 7 most popular home defense calibers in America carry a specific, disqualifying weakness — and most gun owners don't find out until it's too late. This video ranks every major home defense caliber from worst to best, using one test: which round breaks down when the stakes are actually real. Backed by the FBI 2014 ballistic testing standard, real muzzle velocity and grain data, and the actual trade-offs each caliber forces on a home defense setup — capacity, recoil, wall penetration, and cost. Not a range review. A breakdown of what actually holds up during an invasion. #homedefense #9mm #concealedcarrynation ________________________________________ Please LIKE and SUBSCRIBE help us reach 100k Subscribes! @SurvivalGearShowcase1 🔔 Hit the bell icon to get notified whenever we post new content! ________________________________________ ⚠️ DISCLAIMER: Survival Gear Showcase provides information for entertainment and educational purposes only.
