This video showcases an experimental 17-5.56 KAK wildcat cartridge, achieving a record-breaking 5326 fps with a 12.5-grain solid brass projectile. The testing demonstrates impressive steel penetration and significant temporary cavity effects in ballistic gel, outperforming established cartridges like the .17 HMR and even .30-06 AP rounds in specific scenarios. The content highlights advanced reloading techniques and extreme ballistic performance.

The 6.5x25mm CBJ cartridge offers significant armor-piercing capabilities, even outperforming standard rifle rounds against hardened steel. It achieves this by utilizing a small, high-velocity tungsten penetrator within a sabot, scaled down from tank ammunition technology. The cartridge is designed for easy conversion of existing 9x19mm platforms like the Glock and MP5 with just a barrel change, maintaining compatibility with standard magazines and bolts.

This video explores the phenomenon of exploding ammunition when fired at supersonic speeds. It delves into the science and potential consequences of such an event, likely featuring visual demonstrations and explanations of the physics involved in ammunition failure at high velocities. The content aims to educate viewers on the extreme effects of supersonic ammunition under specific, likely destructive, conditions.

This video showcases a custom Armalite M15 rifle chambered in .204 Ruger, demonstrating its high-velocity capabilities with Hornady 40gr V-MAX ammunition, estimated at 4000 FPS. The setup features a Nightforce NXS 5.5-22x56 optic and a Medesha Firearms adjustable cheek rest, highlighting precision for varmint hunting and long-range shooting.

This video features an "Epic 2" airgun cranked to maximum power, firing exploding pellets at over 1400 FPS. It's pitted against .22 LR Federal Punch rounds in a comparison. The description also lists numerous affiliate links for shooting gear, including bags, practice systems, optics, targets, red dots, and tactical apparel, along with a link for channel merchandise and PayPal donations. The creator also invites product submissions for testing.

This video explores the innovative two-piece case design of Shell Tech Ammo's 9mm ammunition. It highlights the use of a patented aluminum base and nickel stainless steel alloy casing, emphasizing its 50% weight reduction compared to brass and claims of improved accuracy. The Q&A format covers reloadability for pistols, magnetic pickup benefits, and exclusive sales options. The video specifically mentions the impressive velocity of a 65-grain copper polymer 9mm reaching up to 1,900 FPS, and lists available offerings including 115 grain FMJ, Nosler hollow points, and high-speed copper polymer rounds.

This experiment demonstrates that a .50 BMG round can be successfully fired through complex pipe configurations, including 90-degree bends, S-curves, and even a full 360-degree loop. Despite significant redirection, the bullet retained enough energy to destroy targets, though the pipes showed considerable wear. The Bushmaster BA50 rifle proved capable of handling the extreme tests.

This video introduces Federal Ammunition's new 7 mm Backcountry cartridge, highlighting its revolutionary Peak Alloy case technology. This innovation allows for significantly higher pressures, resulting in increased muzzle velocities, especially from shorter barrels, compared to legacy cartridges. Federal CEO Jason Vanderbrink emphasizes this as a major leap forward for the centerfire rifle industry, comparable to the transition from blackpowder to smokeless powder. The American Rifleman team had an opportunity to test the new ammunition on the range and explains the underlying concept.

This video compares the .204 Ruger, .22-250 Remington, and .223 Ackley Improved in a 'Varmintgeddon' barrier test. While all excelled against water jugs and 1/4 inch steel, high-velocity varmint rounds showed limited penetration against concrete and 3/8 inch steel. Actual velocities were verified, with the .22-250's advertised speed being significantly higher than measured.
