This video tests the durability of a 1909 wrought iron anvil against various calibers, culminating in a .50 BMG sniper rifle. While smaller calibers like 9mm and .44 Magnum only cause lead splatter, larger rounds like the .308 create noticeable divots. The .50 BMG API round, despite creating a small crater and fireball, was ultimately stopped by the anvil, demonstrating its extreme resilience.
This video tests the bulletproof capabilities of an anvil against various calibers, from .22LR to .50 BMG. While smaller calibers had no effect, the .308 Win left a mark, and the .50 BMG round knocked the anvil over but did not penetrate. The conclusion is that an anvil is effectively bulletproof against common and even heavy-duty commercial rounds.
