This video provides a detailed comparison of several 5.56x45mm NATO ammunition types used by the US Navy, focusing on their terminal ballistics and penetration capabilities. The Mark 255 Mod 1, featuring a compressed copper polymer core, is highlighted for its rapid fragmentation and potential for large wound channels, while the M855A1 is noted for its extreme penetration. The M855 Green Tip and Mark 262 Mod 1 are also tested for comparison.

This video tests the ballistic resistance of a sledgehammer against various calibers, from .22 LR to .50 BMG. It demonstrates that even smaller rounds cause superficial damage, while larger calibers like 7.62x39mm and 5.56mm create significant dents and fragmentation. The .50 BMG round causes the most substantial damage, but the hammer remains intact, suggesting a high degree of ballistic resistance.

This video tests the bullet resistance of a sledgehammer against various calibers, from .22 LR to .50 BMG. The sledgehammer demonstrates significant resistance, with no caliber achieving a complete pass-through. Notably, even larger calibers like 7.62x39mm and 5.56x45mm NATO caused significant denting and bullet fragmentation, while the .50 BMG created a substantial divot. The experiment concludes that a sledgehammer is effectively bulletproof against the tested rounds.
