Crossbow vs bulletproof Glass

This video from T.REX ARMS evaluates the .300 Blackout cartridge's viability as an 'all-around' rifle round. While acknowledging its effectiveness in specific Personal Defense Weapon (PDW) roles and for suppressed, close-quarters applications, the assessment concludes it falls short as a true do-it-all rifle due to limitations in long-range ballistics, ammunition cost, and weight compared to 5.56mm. The review highlights practical testing of accuracy, recoil, and maneuverability with a SIG MCX Virtus build.

This video demonstrates the significant power of the .454 Casull cartridge using a Freedom Arms revolver. Hickok45 fires a 360-grain flat-nosed bullet at a bowling pin, which is completely penetrated and split, showcasing the round's impressive energy and destructive capability. The demonstration highlights the substantial recoil associated with this powerful handgun caliber.

This video analyzes the popularity of the nine-millimeter (9mm) caliber, arguing that its widespread adoption might be overrated. The content likely delves into the pros and cons of 9mm ammunition and firearms chambered in this caliber, potentially comparing it to other options and questioning its suitability for various applications.

This YouTube video, titled ".45 ACP: o poder de parada dessa munição é tudo isso mesmo?" (Is the stopping power of this .45 ACP ammunition really all that?), delves into the effectiveness of the .45 ACP cartridge. Based solely on the title, the content likely explores the terminal ballistics and practical stopping power of this well-known handgun caliber, possibly comparing it to others or discussing its historical significance and performance in real-world scenarios. It aims to answer whether the reputation of .45 ACP's stopping power is fully justified.

This YouTube video compares the lethality of subsonic versus supersonic .22LR ammunition. The title directly poses the question of which type is more lethal, indicating a comparative analysis of their terminal ballistics and effectiveness. The content likely explores the physics behind these rounds, potentially including penetration, expansion, and energy transfer, to determine their suitability for various applications where lethality is a primary concern.

This video provides a practical test of .44 Special wadcutter ammunition, featuring a custom Charter Arms .44 Bulldog revolver. The test includes visual inspection of the ammunition and firearm, live-fire demonstration, and crucial ballistic data captured by a Garmin Xero Chronograph. The instructor, demonstrating experienced authority, shares velocity readings (Avg 555.2 FPS, Min 501.3 FPS, Max 606.7 FPS) from four shots.

This video tests how many cast iron skillets are needed to stop various bullets, from .22 LR to 500 S&W Magnum. Most common handgun rounds like 9mm and .45 ACP are stopped by two skillets. Rifle rounds like 5.56mm and 7.62x39mm also require two to three skillets, while the powerful 500 S&W Magnum penetrates three and is stopped by the fourth. The .22 LR failed to penetrate even the first skillet.

This video tests the penetration capabilities of a .50 BMG rifle, specifically the Serbu BFG-50A, against a section of railroad track. Various .50 caliber rounds, including Raufoss Mk 211 API and silver tip API, were fired. While the rifle and ammunition demonstrated the ability to penetrate even the thickest parts of the rail (over 1.5 inches), bullet deflection and shifting upon impact with the dense steel were observed.

This video demonstrates launching an M67 fragmentation grenade using an X Products Can Cannon towards a distant frozen lake. The Can Cannon, firing .223 blanks, successfully propels the grenade, which detonates upon impact, creating a visible hole in the ice. The experiment highlights the launcher's capability for extreme projectile delivery in challenging outdoor conditions.

This video tests the destructive power of a .50 caliber spotter round against 1.25-inch thick bulletproof glass, comparing it to a standard FMJ round. The spotter round, designed to spark and flash, created a larger crater and more surface damage than the FMJ round, demonstrating its specialized impact characteristics. The Serbu BFG-50A rifle was used for both tests.
