This video investigates the lethal range of birdshot using a ballistic dummy. It demonstrates that at 100 yards, birdshot is not lethal, with pellets merely resting on the surface. At 50 yards, it's painful but not considered lethal, and at 25 yards, while more pellets penetrate, it's still not deemed lethal. The instructor suggests 15 yards begins to enter the lethal range, and 5 yards is definitively lethal, with significant tissue damage observed.
This video demonstrates the unique properties of blue tip 9mm ammunition, which is designed to explode on soft target impact. The instructor, exhibiting experienced authority, tests this ammunition on various soft targets, including simulated zombie heads and soft earth, showcasing its potential applications in extreme scenarios. The guide details how to safely test and observe the effects of this specialized ammunition.
This guide covers the general handling and functionality of the Q Boombox in 8.6 Blackout, drawing insights from an expert firearm instructor. It emphasizes safe firearm handling, understanding the unique features of the Boombox like its 1:3 twist rate and the Sig Sauer Romeo 9T optic, and common operational considerations. The review highlights the rifle's 'Death Trooper' aesthetic and its intended role in dominating close-to-medium engagement distances.
This video provides an expert-level analysis of the .17 HMR cartridge's lethality, featuring detailed ballistic testing and comparisons. The host, recognized for his expertise in firearms testing, demonstrates the round's performance against ballistic gel, simulated anatomy, and a ballistic dummy, concluding it's highly effective for varmints but not ideal for self-defense against humans.
This video explores hypothetical alien defense scenarios using firearms and tactical gear against a ballistic dummy. It debunks common sci-fi tropes for defeating aliens and demonstrates the effectiveness of various calibers and weapons, from less-lethal rounds and crossbows to powerful handguns, shotguns, AR-15s, and a massive 4 Bore rifle. The experiment highlights the destructive power of conventional firearms against a simulated threat.
This video investigates the lethal capabilities of the .22LR caliber, specifically at point-blank range. The content creator uses a ballistic dummy head and a .22 pistol to conduct a test and demonstrate the results. The description also includes links for viewer support via Patreon and PayPal, along with social media links to the creator's Instagram.
This video demonstrates the effects of a 'Flash Thunder' light and sound grenade fired from a Maverick 88 shotgun at a ballistic skull target. The test reveals the intense heat and shockwave generated, causing significant damage to the skull's eye socket and indicating the potential lethality of such devices.
This guide outlines a comprehensive ballistic testing procedure for body armor, as demonstrated by Yee Yee Life. It details the progression from common handgun rounds to high-powered rifle and sniper calibers, emphasizing the importance of understanding armor limitations. The testing involves a ballistic dummy and various firearms, highlighting the need for strict safety protocols throughout the process.
This video features Scott from Kentucky Ballistics testing various firearms against a Polish Iskra TS-11 fighter jet cockpit and a ballistic dummy. The testing progresses from small calibers like .22LR and 9mm up to a 20mm anti-tank rifle, demonstrating the destructive power of larger rounds against armored targets. Scott's high-energy presentation and access to rare hardware provide expert insights into terminal ballistics and firearm capabilities.
This video demonstrates the extreme destructive power of a Desert Eagle 50 AE fired at contact distance against a ballistic dummy head. The test simulates a self-inflicted gunshot scenario, highlighting the significant muzzle flash, concussive force, and devastating damage caused by this powerful handgun, especially in an enclosed space. The instructor emphasizes the difference in results compared to standard shots due to pressure buildup.
This video from Yee Yee Life tests the ballistic resistance of salvaged Secret Service Suburban glass against various calibers, from .22 LR to .50 BMG. While the glass effectively stops most common handgun and intermediate rifle rounds, it is penetrated by a .50 BMG sniper rifle. The test utilizes a ballistic dummy named 'Fred' to assess spalling and penetration effects.
This video demonstrates the potential consequences of 'scope bite' when firing a .50 BMG rifle. Using a ballistic dummy head and a Leupold Mark 4 scope, the test shows that while the scope can fracture the skull and cause significant injury, it is unlikely to be directly lethal from a single impact.
