Level 10 Masterlock vs different caliber bullets

This video demonstrates a ballistic test to determine if forklift forks can stop various firearm rounds, from .22 LR up to .50 BMG. The test, conducted by an experienced individual, shows that while forklift forks can stop many common handgun and rifle rounds, they are penetrated by the .50 BMG round. The results provide practical insights into the ballistic resistance of steel under extreme impact.

This video from Yee Yee Life tests the ballistic resistance of a real bank door against various calibers, from .22LR up to .50 BMG. The test, conducted by an experienced individual demonstrating safe firearm handling, shows the door's effectiveness against most handgun rounds and even some rifle calibers, though it is ultimately penetrated by a .50 BMG round. The experiment uses a mannequin named Fred as a target to visualize the effects of penetration.

This video from Yee Yee Life features Parker Smith conducting an experimental ballistic test, using Feastables chocolate bars as a medium to test bullet penetration. He demonstrates how different calibers, from .22 LR to .50 BMG, interact with the chocolate bars, providing a unique, albeit unconventional, look at projectile energy and stopping power. The experiment highlights the significant differences in penetration capabilities across various firearm types and calibers.

This video from Guns Blazing Ranch provides a clear, demonstrative comparison of three .45 ACP ammunition types: FMJ, JHP, and Monolithic rounds. Through ballistic testing against water bottles, the video visually illustrates the distinct terminal performance characteristics of each, highlighting how JHP and Monolithic rounds offer superior expansion and energy transfer compared to FMJ. The demonstration uses a Ruger SR1911 pistol.

This video demonstrates a ballistic test of a SecDefense USA Level IIIA Bulletproof Mask using a watermelon as a target. The mask is tested against various calibers, including .22LR, 9mm, .357 Magnum, and 5.56 NATO. While it stops handgun rounds, the 5.56 NATO rifle round penetrates as expected for Level IIIA soft armor. The testing is conducted in a casual, experimental, and informative tone by an enthusiast reviewer.

This video from Civilian Tactical Science Lab tests the effectiveness of $30 Chinese UHMWPE body armor plates against various calibers, from .22 LR to .454 Casull and rifle rounds like .223. While the armor stops many projectiles, the video highlights significant back face deformation (BFD), posing a serious injury risk. The lack of NIJ certification is a major concern. The reviewer suggests potential non-body applications for the armor, such as protecting bags or vehicles, but strongly advises caution for personal protection due to its low cost and ethical risks.

This video demonstrates the ballistic resistance of an excavator bucket against various firearm calibers, from .22 LR to .50 BMG API. The test, conducted by an experienced individual, shows that while smaller calibers cause minimal damage, larger rounds like the .50 BMG API can penetrate the bucket. The footage provides visual evidence of impact effects and the destructive potential of different ammunition types.

This video tests the penetration capabilities of various calibers against a large pine tree, culminating with a .50 BMG API round. Surprisingly, even powerful rifle rounds like 5.56mm and 7.62mm, as well as handgun rounds like 10mm and .44 Magnum, failed to fully penetrate the tree. The .50 BMG API round, while charring the entry point, also did not exit the back of the tree, demonstrating the significant stopping power of a substantial tree trunk.

This video from Yee Yee Life features an experienced host testing the ballistic penetration of various calibers, from .22 LR to .50 BMG, in an Intex swimming pool. The host demonstrates proper firearm safety and provides detailed measurements of bullet penetration depths, offering unique insights into how different rounds interact with water as a medium. The results highlight significant variations in penetration based on caliber and velocity.

This video tests the ballistic resistance of a Secret Service Suburban window against various calibers, from .22 LR to .50 BMG. While smaller calibers and even a 10mm and .44 Magnum were stopped with varying degrees of damage, the window was eventually penetrated by a .50 BMG sniper rifle round. The testing provides a clear demonstration of the limits of armored vehicle glass against high-powered rifle threats.
