This video demonstrates an extreme test of a punt gun, firing a 1lb lead ball through a 5,000-gallon pool. Scott from Kentucky Ballistics showcases safe handling of this large-bore firearm using a remote lanyard. The experiment highlights the immense power and water displacement capabilities of such a weapon, resulting in the complete destruction of the pool.

This guide details an experimental test conducted by Kentucky Ballistics, demonstrating the immense power of a custom 9-foot, 150 lb punt gun named 'Fury'. The test involves firing various projectiles, including a 1 lb lead ball with over 30,000 ft-lbs of muzzle energy, into a 5,000-gallon swimming pool to analyze its ballistic performance against a significant water barrier. The video showcases expert handling of a custom large-bore firearm and detailed analysis of kinetic energy and projectile impact.

This video details a ballistics test conducted by Civilian Tactical, evaluating the penetration capabilities of various calibers through a two-foot water barrier. The host, a firearms content creator, demonstrates how rounds from Birdshot up to .50 BMG interact with water. Notably, smaller calibers like .22 LR and 9mm were stopped, while larger rifle rounds like .308 and the .50 BMG achieved significant penetration, causing substantial water displacement and structural damage. The experiment highlights the effectiveness of water as a barrier against certain ammunition types while emphasizing the power of high-energy rounds.

This video demonstrates firing an M60 machine gun and an AK-47 into a quarry lake. Expert firearms influencer Edwin Sarkissian, known for his NFA item access and collaborations, showcases the M60's full-auto capability and .308 caliber performance. The demonstration includes slow-motion analysis of the M60's cycling and a discussion on recoil management when firing from an elevated position.

This video visualizes terminal ballistics by firing various calibers into shallow water and mud. The presenter, demonstrating expertise in firearms, showcases the impact effects of .22LR, 9mm, .44 Magnum, 5.56x45mm, .308 Winchester, 12 Gauge, and 50 BMG. The experiment highlights how bullet weight, velocity, and construction influence terminal performance and water interaction, with particular emphasis on the dramatic effects of the 50 BMG round.

This video demonstrates the ballistic performance of a .44 Magnum and an AK-47 when fired into a pool of water. The .44 Magnum, using Mag-Tech 240-grain soft point ammunition, penetrated further into the water than the AK-47's full metal jacket rounds. The instructor notes that faster, harder rounds can sometimes have less penetration due to energy dispersal upon impact, while slower rounds may penetrate further. Bullet recovery was performed for both firearms.

This video from DemolitionRanch, featuring Matt Carriker, explores the effects of various incendiary and tracer ammunition types when fired into water. The experiment, captured with underwater cameras, demonstrates that rounds like 5.56 tracer, .308 API, and .50 BMG API continue to burn or flash underwater, with significant visual effects. The high-impact nature of the .50 BMG rounds is particularly highlighted.
