This video tests the lethal range of the .22 LR cartridge using a ballistic dummy. It demonstrates significant tissue damage and penetration at distances up to 400 yards, even through clothing. The conclusion is that the .22 LR remains lethal as far as it can be accurately aimed, approximately 450-500 yards with a precise rifle setup.
This video, Part 1 of a two-part series, meticulously tests the lethal range and penetration capabilities of 12 gauge 00 buckshot. The content focuses on how the ammunition performs against various targets at different distances, providing a practical evaluation of shotgun effectiveness at extended ranges.
This experiment tests the lethal range of a 12-gauge shotgun with various loads. Slugs remain effective and penetrating up to 400 yards, though accuracy becomes challenging with significant drop. Buckshot becomes ineffective beyond 100 yards due to pattern spread, with only a few pellets hitting and penetrating at that distance. Birdshot is lethal at extremely close range before pattern dispersion but ineffective beyond that.
This video tests the lethal range of a 40lb draw weight recurve bow using ballistics gel and a torso target. At 10 yards, a 600-grain Easton aluminum arrow with a Grizzly broadhead penetrated 5.5 inches. Even at 100 yards, despite a high arc, the arrow achieved 3 inches of penetration, demonstrating retained lethality. While not ethical for hunting at extreme distances, the bow remains a potent tool.
