This guide details the testing of the 'Kitchen Sink' 12-gauge round from Hickory Flat Boars, as demonstrated by Civilian Tactical. The round contains a unique combination of a musket ball, 00 buckshot, and birdshot. Tests include impact on a water jug, pattern analysis on paper, and penetration testing in ballistics gel, showcasing the varied effects of its multi-projectile design. The video emphasizes proper range safety and provides insights into projectile behavior.

This presentation details a comprehensive live-fire study designed to understand and recreate historical bullet strikes from the American Revolution. By using reproduction firearms, period-accurate ammunition, and advanced recording technology like high-speed cameras and Doppler radar, the researchers meticulously analyzed the effects of musket balls on various materials and simulated human tissue. The study aimed to validate historical accounts and artifacts by replicating the damage caused by these projectiles, providing invaluable insights into the ballistics and wounding potential of 18th-century firearms.

This video demonstrates the effectiveness of various 12-gauge shotgun rounds against a car radiator. The experiment highlights the radiator as a significant vulnerability in vehicles, showing how different ammunition types can quickly disable a vehicle by draining coolant.
