Over the Years, there have been several papers and articles published about Perma-Gel, primarily in the context of its use as a soft tissue simulant for ballistics testing. The research often focuses on comparing its properties and performance to the traditional standard, 10% ordnance gelatin.  Here's a summary of the key findings and themes from these publications: 1. Comparison to Ordnance Gelatin: A central...

When evaluating self-defense ammunition, it's crucial to test rounds against targets that accurately simulate a human body. While paper targets are useful for measuring accuracy, they fail to provide any information about a bullet's terminal performance—that is, what the round does when it hits a target. This is where Ballistic Dummy Lab Dummies become indispensable. Why Paper Targets Aren't Enough Shooting paper targets can help...

The Science of Simulation: Why Ballistic Dummies are Essential and How Ballistic Dummy Lab Leads the Way Ballistic dummies are far more than just targets; they are a critical tool for science, safety, and a variety of professional fields. These sophisticated replicas, often made from ballistic gelatin, are meticulously designed to simulate the density and viscosity of human tissue. This allows for a controlled...
