This video demonstrates the penetration capabilities of various calibers by shooting through stacks of candles. It highlights how larger calibers, like the 50 BMG, possess significantly more power and penetration than smaller rounds such as the .22 LR or 9mm. The test provides a visual understanding of bullet energy transfer and stopping power.

This video demonstrates a ballistic test comparing the penetration power of various firearms and calibers through a series of candles. The experiment progresses from smaller calibers like .22 LR and 9mm up to powerful rifle rounds like .50 BMG, showcasing how different projectiles interact with and destroy the wax medium. The results highlight the significant differences in terminal ballistics and energy transfer between various firearm platforms.
