Videos tagged with Raptor 50

This video showcases the impressive power and speed of the Big Kahuna Firearms Raptor 50, a single-feed bolt action rifle chambered in .50 BMG. Demonstrations include penetrating three concrete blocks, highlighting its significant damage potential compared to an AR-15. The rifle's design leverages AR-15 lower receivers for affordability and ease of assembly.

This video showcases the formidable power of the Big Kahuna Firearms Raptor 50, a .50 BMG bolt-action rifle. Demonstrations include obliterating a triple cinder block stack and creating a spectacular water explosion from jugs, highlighting the significant ballistic difference compared to an AR-15. The use of an affordable AR-15 lower receiver is noted as a key design choice for cost-effectiveness.

This video debunks the myth that a .50 BMG round passing near a target can be lethal due to shockwave. Using a ballistic mannequin head and a Big Kahuna Firearms Raptor-50 rifle, the test demonstrated that while the .50 BMG round impacted and destroyed a concrete block behind the target, it did not affect the mannequin or the cardboard placed near it. The conclusion is that a near miss from a .50 BMG is not fatal.

This video tests the durability of a Labubu doll against firearms, starting with a .22LR and culminating in a .50 BMG. The .22LR failed to penetrate, lodging in the fur. The .50 BMG, fired from a Raptor 50 rifle, completely destroyed the doll, demonstrating the extreme power of the caliber. The content includes a giveaway and humorous 'death certificate' for the doll.

This video tests the concept of a 'human tripod' for a 50BMG rifle using a ballistic dummy. Initial tests with .22LR and .223 rifles demonstrate significant muzzle blast effects, causing damage to the dummy's gel neck. The final test with the Raptor 50 50BMG shows the head remains intact, but severe internal brain damage from blast pressure is inferred.

This video provides a dramatic comparison between the smallest and largest common firearm calibers. The .22 Super Colibri, while quiet, shows minimal impact on a ballistic skull. In stark contrast, the .50 BMG round from a Big Kahuna Raptor 50 completely obliterates the same target, demonstrating extreme destructive power.

This video reviews three firearms that are considered 'painful' to shoot for different reasons. A 12-gauge lever-action shotgun is painful due to extreme recoil. The Beretta 1301 Tactical, while smooth, has an aggressively textured grip that can cause skin abrasions. The Raptor 50 (.50 BMG) causes discomfort from intense concussion due to its large muzzle brake, despite manageable recoil.

This video from Civilian Tactical focuses on selecting optics for the .50 BMG caliber. It highlights the significant recoil challenges and the need for specialized, durable optics. The DNT Hydra HS225 thermal night vision optic is presented as a viable, affordable solution rated for .50 BMG.

This video features a speed test of the Raptor 50 by Big Kahuna Industries, chambered in the powerful .50 BMG caliber. The title and description indicate a focus on the performance and capabilities of this specific large-caliber rifle. Viewers can expect to see the firearm in action and observe its rate of fire.

This review highlights three 'worst' muzzle brakes, focusing on those that, despite recoil reduction, create excessive concussive blast. The Jacob Grey upper with an FRT is noted for repetitive concussions during rapid fire. The Ultradyne brake offers zero muzzle rise but significant side blast. The Raptor 50 in .50 BMG is deemed the most concussive, paired with a DNT Hydra thermal scope.

This ballistic test compares the penetration power of various calibers, from .22 LR to .50 BMG, using water jugs. The video showcases firearms like the Volquartsen .22 LR, Canik TTI Combat 9mm, GForce Arms .357 Magnum lever gun, Zastava AK47 in 7.62x39, and a .50 BMG Raptor 50 upper. It highlights the significant energy transfer differences between these calibers, particularly the extreme power of the .50 BMG round.

This video provides a direct comparison between the .50 BMG and 5.56 calibers, focusing on recoil, weight, and powder volume. A single .50 BMG round is shown to be equivalent in weight to six 5.56 rounds and contains the powder of ten 5.56 rounds. The host concludes that .50 BMG is approximately ten times more powerful than 5.56 based on these metrics.
