This guide details the ballistic testing of a Chinese-made NIJ Level III-A Kevlar helmet, as demonstrated by Harold Cabunoc. It covers testing against 40mm grenade shrapnel, 9mm, .45 ACP, and 5.56mm M855 rounds, providing practical insights into its protective capabilities and limitations against different threats. The assessment highlights the helmet's effectiveness against handgun rounds and shrapnel, while confirming its vulnerability to rifle fire.

This video tests the ballistic resistance of a Premier Body Armor Level 4 Stratus plate against powerful 'elephant guns' including the .45-70 Government, .375 H&H Magnum, and .500 Nitro Express. The plate successfully stopped all tested calibers, though significant deformation and penetration into a ballistic gel block were observed. The testing demonstrates the plate's capability beyond its intended rating, highlighting its effectiveness against extremely high-energy rifle rounds.
