This guide details the experimental testing of custom '22 Super Long Rifle' ammunition, which involves placing a .22LR bullet into a .223 casing, within a Steyr AUG rifle. The process includes observing cycling reliability, comparing recoil reduction (noted as approximately 20% less than .223), and assessing energy output through impact tests. The video emphasizes that this is an experimental and potentially problematic modification, advising viewers against replicating it due to the risk of strange malfunctions and unpredictable ballistics, such as ricochets.

This guide details a test of custom ammunition, specifically a .22LR bullet loaded into a .223 casing, dubbed the '22 Super Long Rifle'. The test, conducted in a Steyr AUG, evaluates cycling reliability, recoil reduction (approximately 20% less than standard .223), and terminal energy. While the custom rounds demonstrated sufficient energy to cycle the bolt, accuracy was significantly compromised, leading to tumbling and unpredictable impacts. The video highlights potential malfunctions with such experimental loads.

This guide, presented by Civilian Tactical, breaks down five distinct types of .223 Remington and 5.56 NATO ammunition. It covers specialized rounds like Hornady VMAX for varmint hunting, M855 'green tip' penetrators, and Double Tap defensive hollow points. The instructor also touches on tracer rounds and the differences between steel and brass-cased ammunition, emphasizing practical applications and identification markers.

This video features professional tactical instructors Eric and Aaron answering viewer questions on gear selection, training, and mindset. They emphasize practical application, reliability, and functional fitness over aesthetics. Key topics include choosing optics, understanding calibers, night vision, and effective training methods for budget-conscious individuals. The instructors share insights from extensive real-world experience and high-round-count classes.

Magpul announces the immediate shipping of their popular GEN M3 PMAGs in a new Olive Drab Green (ODG) color. This release includes various capacities and calibers, such as 5.56x45mm NATO/.223 Remington, .300 Blackout, and 7.62x51mm NATO/.308 Winchester. The company emphasizes that these new ODG magazines retain the same reliability and performance standards as their existing product line, ensuring consistent functionality for a wide range of AR-15 and LR/SR platforms.

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.
