This video tests the ballistic resistance of a Sparta-style helmet made of 11-gauge steel. While it stops a blank, 9mm shot shell, and 12-gauge birdshot, a .22 LR round penetrates, causing minor damage to an internal melon. A standard 9mm round, however, fully penetrates the helmet, significantly damaging the melon.
