This video, titled "The Most Powerful Rifle Is An AR-15!?", challenges the notion of the AR-15's power by comparing it to a .50 BMG rifle and an "elephant gun" in a series of ballistic tests against water, paper, and steel. The description includes a promotional plug for Lear Capital, an alternative investments company, offering gold and silver information. The video appears to focus on the raw power and capabilities of different rifle platforms rather than typical AR-15 use cases. It also briefly touches on chambering issues and scope functionality.
This YouTube video appears to be a "test" of steel using "incorrect ammo." Based on the title and description, the content likely involves testing the durability or reaction of steel when subjected to firearm rounds that are not standard or intended for that specific application. The accompanying description points to a full test video for more details. The focus seems to be on the interaction between ammunition and a steel target or object.
This video conducts a comprehensive ballistic comparison between the .243 Winchester, 6.5 Creedmoor, 7mm-08, and .308 Winchester calibers. Through tests involving wood, steel, water jugs, and concrete, the .308 Winchester and 7mm-08 demonstrated superior penetration and energy transfer, particularly against steel barriers. The .243 Winchester showed limitations in barrier penetration, while the 6.5 Creedmoor offered a balance of performance.
This video tests the effectiveness of various expensive and rare ammunition types against AR500 steel targets. Rounds like the 7.62 SLAP and .338 Lapua Magnum demonstrated significant armor-piercing capabilities, while others, including the costly M995, failed to penetrate thick steel despite high velocities. The tests highlight the trade-offs between projectile construction, velocity, energy, and actual penetration power against hardened steel.
This video compares the penetration capabilities of M855A1, M855, SS109, and XM193 ammunition against various steel plates. The M855A1 demonstrated superior performance, penetrating 1/2 inch mild steel, while only surface craters were left on AR500 steel. The test highlighted differences in penetration even between M855 and SS109, attributed to manufacturing variations and velocity.
This video from Kentucky Ballistics revisits a comparison between 9mm and 10mm calibers, aiming for a fairer test than their previous casual attempt. The comparison involves shooting through water jugs, wood, steel, and concrete. Specific firearms used are a Canik TP9 SF in 9mm and a Glock Gen 4 Model 20 in 10mm. Ammunition is from Underwood, featuring 9mm +P 124gr FMJ and 10mm 200gr FMJ. Muzzle velocities and energies are provided for both calibers, with the 10mm exhibiting significantly higher energy. The video seeks to help viewers decide which caliber is superior and encourages likes, subscriptions, and social media follows.
