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.
