This video tests the ballistic penetration capabilities of a 100-pound lead block against various firearm calibers, from .22LR up to a .50 BMG. The test demonstrates that while smaller calibers leave minimal marks, larger rounds create significant craters. Notably, even powerful rifle rounds like the .308 and .223 fail to fully penetrate the block, highlighting lead's effectiveness as a projectile barrier. The .50 BMG is the only caliber shown to successfully penetrate the entire block and reach the target behind it.
