This video compares the steel penetration capabilities of 5.56x45mm M193 and 7.62x51mm M80 ammunition. While both calibers penetrated 1/4" and 3/8" mild steel, neither fully penetrated 1/2" mild steel with standard FMJ rounds. The M855A1 round, however, cleanly penetrated the 1/2" steel, demonstrating superior performance. The test highlights velocity's significant role in steel penetration, with 5.56 achieving 84% of 7.62's impact depth on 1/2" steel despite lower kinetic energy.
