This video debunks the myth that an AR-15 round would 'blow off' an ear by conducting a practical experiment with pig ears. The results show that even high-velocity rounds like 5.56mm and .223 Remington, as well as heavier calibers like 45-70 and 8.6 Blackout, create small, clean holes through thin tissue, similar to a hole punch. The host explains this is because the tissue is too thin for the bullet to transfer enough energy for catastrophic cavitation, unlike in ballistics gel.

Tim Herron, a USPSA Grand Master, explains efficient iron sight usage by contrasting traditional front sight focus with a target-oriented approach. He advocates using the rear sight for gross aiming and the front sight for fine-tuning, likening it to a backhoe vs. spade. Training with red dots can improve iron sight performance by fostering target focus.
