Serbu 50Cal vs 338 Lapua Savage

This video tests the penetration capabilities of various firearms against a telephone pole, culminating with a .50 BMG sniper rifle. Smaller calibers like 9mm, .45 ACP, .44 Magnum, .223 Remington, and 12 Gauge slugs were stopped by the pole. However, the .50 BMG round easily penetrated the pole and impacted a dummy behind it, demonstrating its significant power.

This experiment tests the pumpkin penetration capabilities of various calibers, from .22 LR to .50 BMG. The .50 BMG rifle, despite its power, only penetrated four pumpkins and glanced off the fifth. In contrast, a .50 AE Desert Eagle stopped in the 13th pumpkin, highlighting differences in projectile design and velocity.

This YouTube video presents a compelling comparison between the power of a .50 BMG rifle and buckshot from a shotgun. The title suggests a dramatic demonstration, likely involving significant impact and destructive potential, as indicated by the hashtag #pumpkin, implying the targets used for the comparison. The video focuses on the raw force and ballistic differences between these distinct ammunition types.

This YouTube video features a dramatic comparison between a .50 caliber firearm, specifically the AEA ELEMENT MAX, and a fire extinguisher. The title suggests an experimental or destructive testing scenario, highlighting the immense power of the .50 caliber round against an unlikely object. The content likely focuses on the ballistic performance and visual impact of this high-caliber rifle.

This video tests the penetration capabilities of various calibers against a 45-pound steel barbell plate. Smaller calibers like .22 LR and 9mm had no effect, while larger handgun rounds like .44 Magnum and .50 AE caused superficial damage. Rifle rounds, including the 7.62x51mm from an FN SCAR, cracked the plate but didn't penetrate. The .50 BMG sniper rifle, however, easily penetrated the plate, demonstrating its significant power.

This review explores the suppressed McMillan TAC-50 in .50 BMG, featuring a carbon fiber barrel and CGS titanium suppressor. Baseline sound tests with a Desert Tech HTI establish the effectiveness of subsonic .50 BMG rounds, which are significantly quieter than supersonic. The video demonstrates terminal ballistics by impacting a vehicle, body armor, viscous liquids, and ballistics gel with subsonic rounds, highlighting their penetration and energy transfer.

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.
