Interesting to note the projectile rotation on all except the 45 is clockwise

That’s because the .45 is from Australia.

Useful tool to choose your powder - look how much you're NOT burning.

More interesting to watch the pistols for the point of barrel unlocking compared to bullet exit.
WWJMBD?

I believe we should stand on Ceremony. . . while our friends handcuff the sanctimonious little prick and take him away.

I love these types of videos. Thanks for sharing.

A few points:

Always amazed at how much crap blows out if a barrel before the bullet exits!

They all show decisively that recoil is NOT part of the action shooting a gun.

And, how clean and unmolested a bullet leaving from a suppressor looks and acts.

I was thing the same seeing a lot of unburned powder. Leads to the next question. How does barrel length affect powder selection? One would think a shorter barrel requires a faster powder?
