This review of the AEA HP Max in .357/9mm highlights its impressive power potential, capable of exceeding 1000 FPS with heavy slugs and delivering over 270 ft-lbs of energy. The video demonstrates that while maximum fill pressure yields high velocities, accuracy is significantly improved by reducing the fill pressure to around 3500-3700 PSI, especially when using pellets. The reviewer suggests that an unregulated design necessitates managing pressure for optimal performance.

This video reviews the AEA Harpoon, a unique double-barreled, cartridge-firing airgun. It details the cartridge reloading process, including filling to 4500 PSI, and demonstrates the significant velocity difference between the 5-inch and 13-inch barrel configurations. The review also showcases the airgun's performance on various reactive targets, highlighting its power and fun factor.

This review of the Western Airguns .45 Caliber Rattler highlights its impressive power and accuracy for an air-powered rifle. The presenter demonstrates 50 and 100-yard accuracy, noting over 400 foot-pounds of energy with 363-grain projectiles, positioning it as a 'big bore sniper rifle' powered by air.

This video delves into the physics of a bullet in flight, focusing on key metrics like velocity and time of flight, and how understanding these elements can be leveraged for improved shooting.

This video from Elliott Delp provides an expert analysis of the maximum hunting range for the .300 Blackout cartridge. Delp utilizes ballistics software to demonstrate energy drop-off and trajectory, concluding that while the cartridge is viable out to 300 yards, its practical hunting effectiveness is best suited for ranges between 100 and 200 yards due to holdover requirements. The discussion highlights the importance of barrel length and velocity in determining effective range.

This review of the AEA Zeus .58 caliber airgun focuses on its power and accuracy. The presenter provides chronograph data, demonstrating impressive velocities and energy levels with heavy slugs. Accuracy tests at 50 and 100 yards are discussed, highlighting the need for precise tuning and the airgun's surprising capability at longer distances. The review also touches on the airgun's loud report and its single-shot loading mechanism.

This review from BIG MAN with GUN's Madman Review covers six of the most powerful air rifles available in 2021. The video details how air rifle power is measured using Foot Pounds of Energy (FPE) and Foot Per Second (FPS), and discusses its importance for hunting and long-distance shooting. Specific models reviewed include the Benjamin Bulldog 357, Beeman 10774, Gamo Big Cat, Gamo Swarm Maxim, Umarex Ruger 10/22, and Bear River TPR 1200, highlighting their unique features and performance capabilities.

This video explores the theoretical firearms needed to defeat a Game of Thrones dragon, calculating the required energy output based on in-universe ballista effectiveness. The analysis delves into various rifle calibers, comparing their energy delivery to the estimated needs, ultimately identifying the 950 JDJ and 20mm rifles as potential candidates. The presenter, with a background in mathematics, uses a logical, albeit hypothetical, approach to determine the necessary firepower.
