KENTUCKY PLINKING

This video features a dramatic test of a modern punt gun, nicknamed 'Fury,' against ballistic zombie torsos. The punt gun, boasting a 6-foot barrel and weighing 150 lbs, demonstrated immense power with various loads including 1 lb of birdshot, .44 caliber buckshot, and a 7,000-grain slug. The tests concluded with the punt gun completely destroying multiple torsos and even decapitating one with a swan shot load, highlighting its historical role and extreme ballistic capabilities.

This video features a unique challenge where guest Houston Jones must shoot mystery boxes containing items he likes. The challenge involves a 'Wheels of Misfortune' system that dictates the firearm caliber and number of shots required to open each box. Several high-caliber firearms are used, including a .50 BMG rifle, a 12-gauge shotgun, and a .500 Magnum revolver, testing the durability of various items within the boxes.

This video tests the effectiveness of using a pillow as a makeshift silencer, a common trope in movies. The host conducts a sound test by firing a firearm into a pillow multiple times and compares the resulting sound to firing without the pillow. The visual evidence shows the pillow accumulating bullet holes, indicating it was used as a backstop.

This experiment tests the durability of a Tevlaphee tire boot against various firearm calibers, from .22 LR to .50 BMG. While smaller calibers caused only superficial damage, even powerful rounds like the .500 Magnum and 10 Gauge shotgun failed to dislodge the boot. It took a .300 Win Mag to damage the internal rod and a .50 BMG to completely destroy the mechanism, proving the boot's robust design.

This video hypothetically tests various firearms against a Predator's armor. Handguns like the 9mm CZ Tactical Sport 2 and .500 Magnum S&W 500, along with rifles like the .50 BMG Serbu BFG-50A, are evaluated. Most common calibers fail to penetrate the alien alloy, highlighting the need for extreme power. The experiment concludes with a truck ramming the dummy.

This video tests the terminal ballistics of various 'hand cannon' calibers against a realistic zombie torso. Powerful rounds like the .454 Casull and .500 Magnum demonstrated devastating effects, with heavier loads completely disintegrating the torso. The tests highlight significant differences in penetration and energy transfer between calibers, showcasing the raw power of large-bore handguns.

This video details a catastrophic failure of a Serbu RN-50 rifle chambered in .50 BMG, which exploded due to extreme pressure exceeding 85,000 PSI. The incident resulted in severe injuries to the shooter, Scott, including a broken orbital bone, nose, lacerated jugular vein, and punctured lung. The analysis points to the breech cap shearing off its threads as the failure point, highlighting the dangers of exceeding firearm pressure limits.

This video from Kentucky Ballistics puts the Desert Eagle Mark XIX through a series of extreme environmental torture tests. The firearm demonstrates impressive initial resilience, functioning perfectly after water submersion and snow exposure. However, it encounters significant malfunctions when subjected to mud and sand, highlighting potential failure points in extreme conditions. The test is conducted by Scott, a recognized authority in destructive firearm testing.

This video features a series of extreme caliber tests using a zombie torso dummy. The .700 Nitro Express is tested with a 1000-grain soft point round, followed by .600, .500, and .470 Nitro Express calibers. Additional tests include the .460 Weatherby Magnum and .500 Jeffery, showcasing the immense power and recoil of these large-bore firearms.

This Liberty Safe National Classic Select underwent extreme torture tests, including a flamethrower fire simulation and ballistic impacts. While it withstood .45 ACP, .50 AE, .500 S&W Magnum, and .450 Marlin rounds, a .308 Win round penetrated, and .50 BMG rounds easily breached the safe. Despite significant damage, the safe's frame remained intact against mechanical force.
