This video tests the penetration power of various calibers through paper, ranging from .22 LR to a .50 BMG sniper rifle. Key findings include the .50 BMG penetrating over 3,000 sheets, while a 9mm round stopped at 500 sheets. The .44 Magnum surprisingly penetrated fewer sheets than the 9mm, possibly due to bullet expansion. The .223 Remington from an AR-15 demonstrated significant penetration, exceeding 2,000 sheets.

The .50 BMG significantly outperformed the .416 Ruger, penetrating 3,985 sheets compared to the .416 Ruger's 1,923 sheets. The test highlights the distinct ballistic capabilities of these large-caliber firearms.
This video, titled "The Most Powerful Rifle Is An AR-15!?", challenges the notion of the AR-15's power by comparing it to a .50 BMG rifle and an "elephant gun" in a series of ballistic tests against water, paper, and steel. The description includes a promotional plug for Lear Capital, an alternative investments company, offering gold and silver information. The video appears to focus on the raw power and capabilities of different rifle platforms rather than typical AR-15 use cases. It also briefly touches on chambering issues and scope functionality.
This video tests the penetration power of various calibers through reams of paper. A .500 S&W Magnum penetrated approximately 1,200-1,500 sheets, while a .50 BMG FMJ round went through 3,500 sheets and even exited the side. An APIT .50 BMG round showed similar penetration to the FMJ. The video also includes a visual comparison of .44 Magnum and .500 S&W Magnum cartridges.
