This video tests the bulletproof capabilities of various wall constructions against multiple firearms, from .22 LR to .50 BMG. Standard walls failed against most calibers, while walls reinforced with ceramic/Kevlar and sand proved effective against rifle rounds. The sand-filled wall was the most effective and cheapest solution for stopping high-powered handgun and rifle rounds, though it was penetrated by .50 BMG.
