Cimento como Proteção? Testamos com 50 BMG!

Published on March 16, 2025
Duration: 1:14

This video tests the ballistic resistance of concrete blocks against various calibers, from .22LR to .50 BMG. It demonstrates the significant penetration capabilities of larger calibers like the .50 BMG, which vaporized multiple blocks, highlighting its destructive potential against structures. The test also showcases the effectiveness of smaller calibers against concrete, with some rounds causing significant damage but failing to penetrate.

Quick Summary

Concrete blocks were tested against various firearm calibers, revealing significant differences in penetration. While smaller rounds like 9mm caused surface damage, .308 Winchester could cut blocks in half, and the .50 BMG round vaporized multiple blocks, demonstrating extreme destructive power against hardened structures.

Frequently Asked Questions

How effective are concrete blocks against different firearm calibers?

Concrete blocks show significant resistance to smaller calibers like .22LR, .380 ACP, and 9mm, causing surface damage but generally not penetrating. Larger calibers like .223 Remington can create holes and impact subsequent layers, while .308 Winchester can cut blocks in half. The .50 BMG round demonstrated extreme power by vaporizing multiple blocks.

What is the penetration capability of a .50 BMG round against concrete?

During the test, a .50 BMG round completely vaporized two concrete blocks, leaving only four remaining. This indicates an exceptionally high level of destructive power and penetration against hardened structures, far exceeding that of smaller rifle calibers.

Which calibers were tested against concrete blocks in this video?

The video tested a range of calibers including birdshot from a Beretta 1301 Tactical, .22LR, .380 ACP, 9mm, .223 Remington, .308 Winchester, and the powerful .50 BMG. Each caliber demonstrated varying degrees of penetration and damage to the concrete.

Are there any resources for learning about firearms if I'm interested?

Yes, the video mentions the Sonoran Desert Institute (SDI) as an online resource for those interested in gunsmithing. They offer programs that can provide technical knowledge and skills related to firearms.
