How many Wieners does it take to stop a 500 Magnum?
This video tests the stopping power of various calibers, including .22 LR, .45 ACP, .50 AE, and the .500 S&W Magnum, using hot dog packs as a ballistic medium. The .500 Magnum, despite its immense power, stopped earlier than expected due to rapid hollow point expansion limiting penetration depth. The experiment highlights how bullet design significantly impacts terminal ballistics.
