This guide details the process of testing an exceptionally heavy 1300-grain .50 BMG projectile, nearly double the standard weight. It covers the use of specialized equipment like the Serbu RN-50 and Caldwell Lead Sled for safety and recoil management, employing remote firing for added security. The testing protocol involves assessing terminal ballistics through water jugs and concrete blocks, as well as evaluating performance against a Level IV body armor plate. The guide also highlights potential firearm failures due to extreme recoil, as demonstrated by the Serbu RN-50's upper receiver weld failure. Instruction is provided by Scott, an established subject matter expert in ballistics testing.
