This video tests the penetration capabilities of a Smith & Wesson .500 Magnum revolver and an AK-47 against a barrier of 12 cast iron skillets. Both firearms were stopped by the third skillet, demonstrating the significant stopping power of the .500 Magnum and the surprising effectiveness of cast iron as a projectile barrier. The test highlights the destructive potential of magnum handgun rounds.
The TenPoint Viper S400 crossbow, with its 400 FPS and 135 ft-lbs of kinetic energy, was tested against various materials. It failed to penetrate cast iron skillets, breaking its own arrow, but successfully penetrated a ream of copy paper, a Kevlar helmet, lumber, and a sandbag. Its performance against Level 3A body armor was marginal, penetrating only slightly.
