This video tests the penetration capabilities of various firearms, from .22 LR to a .50 BMG, through stacks of paper plates. The experiment aims to determine how many plates each caliber can stop before the projectile is fully arrested. The results show a significant increase in penetration with larger calibers, with the .30-06 Springfield ultimately outperforming the .50 BMG in this specific test due to projectile deflection.

This video details a catastrophic failure of a Serbu RN-50 rifle chambered in .50 BMG, resulting in severe injuries to the shooter, Scott from Kentucky Ballistics. The incident highlights extreme pressure events and the critical importance of firearm safety and immediate medical response. Scott's resilience and commitment to educating viewers despite his injuries are evident.

This video details a comprehensive torture test of the Desert Eagle Mark XIX, conducted by Scott from Kentucky Ballistics. The firearm was subjected to extreme conditions including water submersion, snow burial, mud immersion, and sand burial. Despite some malfunctions in mud and sand, the Desert Eagle demonstrated notable resilience, functioning after water and snow exposure. The test highlights the firearm's robust construction and the importance of understanding its limitations under adverse conditions.

This video tests the myth of water being bulletproof by firing various firearms, from 9mm handguns to a .50 BMG rifle, into a water tank. Results show that even high-powered rounds like the .50 BMG are significantly slowed or stopped by water, failing to penetrate to the target. The tests demonstrate water's effectiveness in dissipating projectile energy.

This video features Scott from Kentucky Ballistics testing several of the world's largest caliber firearms against a realistic ballistic dummy torso. The expert demonstrates the destructive power of rounds like the .700 Nitro Express (1000 grain) and .600 Nitro Express (900 grain), showcasing detailed firearm engravings and unique actions like the Blaser R8 straight-pull bolt. The testing provides valuable insights into the performance of these extreme hunting calibers on simulated organic material.
