This video tests the penetration power of a .50 BMG round fired from a Serbu RN-50 rifle into approximately 40 stacked phone books. The Hornady 750-grain A-MAX projectile successfully penetrated 26 phone books before being recovered, showing significant deformation. The test highlights the destructive capability of the .50 caliber round.
This video compares the ballistic penetration of 5.56mm from an AR-15 against 7.62x39mm from an AK-47 using phone books as a medium. Despite the 7.62x39mm having a heavier bullet (124gr vs 55gr), the 5.56mm round achieved slightly deeper penetration, reaching 27 books compared to the 7.62x39mm's 26-27 books. The experiment suggests that the higher velocity of the 5.56mm round may have compensated for its lighter weight in this specific test.

This video compares the .22 Magnum (.22 WMR) and .22 Long Rifle (.22 LR) calibers through various penetration and expansion tests. The .22 Magnum demonstrated significantly superior penetration through phonebooks and water jugs, and greater bullet deformation in sand, indicating higher energy. While the .22 LR performed reliably, it was clearly outmatched by the .22 Magnum in terms of raw power and terminal ballistics.
