how many cricket bats to stop the 500 Magnum ?
This video from Edwin Sarkissian demonstrates a unique ballistics test, measuring the penetration power of various calibers (.500 Magnum, .44 Magnum, 9mm, 7.62x39mm, 8mm Mauser) against a barrier of cricket bats. Sarkissian, an experienced firearms content creator, uses firearms like the Smith & Wesson .500 Magnum and Taurus Raging Hunter to showcase how different rounds interact with the bats, highlighting concepts like keyholing and tumbling. The experiment provides a visual comparison of projectile energy and terminal ballistics.
