This video from Kentucky Ballistics features a detailed test of various firearms against a life-sized Velociraptor replica to determine what it would take to defeat one. Host Scott, alongside Chris from Ballistic Dummy Lab, tests handguns from .22LR up to .500 Magnum, shotguns including a Spas-12, and rifles ranging from .45-70 to a .4 Bore.

This video debunks common firearm myths with practical demonstrations. It clarifies that suppressors do not make firearms silent but significantly reduce noise and recoil. The demonstration shows heavier bullets provide more knockdown power at closer ranges, while lighter, faster bullets with better ballistic coefficients are superior for long-range accuracy. The video also illustrates that barrel length does not inherently dictate accuracy, with caliber and ammunition quality being more critical factors for certain platforms like the 350 Legend. Finally, it concludes that rifle weight (heavy vs. light barrel) has a less significant impact on accuracy than ammunition and barrel quality, especially under varying environmental conditions.
