This video tests the stopping power of several large-caliber safari rifles, including the 700 Nitro Express, 600 Nitro Express, .577 Tyrannosaur, 500 Nitro Express, and 416 Rigby, by shooting giant gummy bears. The 700 Nitro Express penetrated 9 gummy bears, the 600 Nitro Express and .577 Tyrannosaur penetrated 12, and the 500 Nitro Express also penetrated around 12. The 416 Rigby was the most accurate, staying on track and penetrating 15 gummy bears.

This video tests the destructive power of various elephant guns against bowling balls, showcasing the significant differences in energy transfer between calibers. Larger calibers like the .700 Nitro Express and .600 Nitro Express obliterate bowling balls, demonstrating immense 'thump' and energy dump. Smaller, faster rounds like the .416 Rigby penetrate deeply but don't shatter the balls as effectively, highlighting distinct ballistic properties.

This video tests Premier Body Armor Level 4 plates against various calibers, culminating in a 700 Nitro Express round. While standard rifle rounds and 12 gauge buckshot were stopped with minimal deformation, the 700 Nitro Express, despite its immense power, managed to stop the plate. However, the impact completely delaminated and destroyed the armor.

This video tests the extreme stopping power of the 700 Nitro Express against a modified PT Cruiser. Despite the car's rough condition and even being flipped, the engine surprisingly restarts, providing a challenging target. Two shots from the 700 Nitro Express were required to disable the engine, demonstrating the immense energy of this large-caliber rifle.

This video tests the penetration capabilities of various extreme-caliber firearms against a 1,500-pound Lefebure bank vault door. While some powerful rounds like the 375 H&H and 416 Rigby penetrated, others like the 458 Lott, 500 Nitro Express, 700 Nitro Express, and the massive 4 Bore rifle failed to fully breach the door, highlighting the door's robust construction. A 577 Tyrannosaur round successfully penetrated, demonstrating its extreme power.

This review explores the custom 700 BMG rifle, a hybrid combining elements of the .50 BMG and .700 Nitro Express. It features a McMillan Bros action, fires a 1000-grain bullet over 2000 fps, and delivers immense recoil. Extensive testing demonstrates its destructive power against steel targets, ballistics gel, cinder blocks, and even a car.

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.
