WEREWOLF DEFENSE!!! (Pure Silver 50 BMG, 500 S&W, 12 Gauge & More)

Published on October 30, 2023
Duration: 25:09

This video tests the effectiveness of pure silver bullets in various calibers against a werewolf ballistic dummy. While silver offers deep penetration, it shows minimal expansion similar to FMJ rounds, especially at lower velocities. Higher velocity rounds like .308 and .50 BMG demonstrate more deformation, with the .50 BMG completely obliterating the dummy's head.

Quick Summary

Pure silver bullets tested by Kentucky Ballistics showed deep penetration but minimal expansion, behaving similarly to FMJ rounds. The .50 BMG round completely destroyed the werewolf dummy's head, while 12-gauge silver shot proved devastating at close range.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do pure silver bullets perform in ballistic tests?

Pure silver bullets generally show minimal expansion, similar to Full Metal Jacket (FMJ) rounds. They offer deep penetration but do not mushroom significantly unless propelled at extremely high velocities, as seen with the .308 Winchester and .50 BMG tests.

What was the most effective pure silver round tested against the werewolf dummy?

The .50 BMG pure silver bullet was the most destructive, completely obliterating the werewolf dummy's head. The 12-gauge shell with silver shot also demonstrated devastating close-range effectiveness, creating a massive abdominal cavity.

What firearms were used in the Kentucky Ballistics silver bullet test?

The video featured various firearms including handguns for 9mm, .45 ACP, .44 Magnum, and .500 S&W; a Ruger American rifle for .308 Winchester; a shotgun for 12-gauge; and a Noreen ULR rifle for the .50 BMG tests.

Does silver ammunition offer any advantages over standard bullets?

While not expanding like traditional hollow points, pure silver bullets provide excellent penetration due to their density and hardness. Their primary advantage in this test scenario was their unique material composition, though ballistically they behaved much like FMJ.
