Nosler ASP 9mm, .40 & .45 Ballistics | Gun Talk Videos

This video tests the ballistic resistance of steel-toe boots against various calibers, from .22LR up to .50 BMG. While smaller calibers like .22LR and .380 ACP were completely stopped with minimal deformation, larger calibers like 9mm and .45 ACP caused significant bulging and potential toe injury, though they were still stopped. The .44 Magnum partially penetrated the steel on one attempt, and the 50 AE and 50 BMG successfully penetrated the steel toe, rendering the boots ineffective against these high-powered rounds.

This video tests the ballistic resistance of a 24-inch adjustable wrench against various calibers, from .22 LR to .50 BMG. The wrench demonstrated significant durability, withstanding multiple impacts from intermediate rifle cartridges and even showing resistance to .308 Winchester. The .50 BMG round, however, completely destroyed the wrench's internal gearing mechanism.

The video warns of an impending, potentially historic ammunition shortage due to a global gunpowder scarcity. The speaker, citing information from a major ammunition manufacturer, advises viewers to stock up on ammunition, especially common calibers like 9mm, 22LR, 380 ACP, and 45 ACP, as production may shift and prices are expected to rise significantly. The advice is presented as a fair warning for preparedness, not a scare tactic.

This video discusses an impending, potentially historic ammunition shortage driven by a global gunpowder scarcity. The speaker, citing information from a major ammunition manufacturer, advises viewers to stock up on essential calibers like 9mm, .22 LR, .380 ACP, and .45 ACP. While cautioning against hoarding, the emphasis is on ensuring personal readiness for self-defense and recreational shooting.

This video demonstrates a ballistic test comparing the penetration power of various firearms and calibers through a series of candles. The experiment progresses from smaller calibers like .22 LR and 9mm up to powerful rifle rounds like .50 BMG, showcasing how different projectiles interact with and destroy the wax medium. The results highlight the significant differences in terminal ballistics and energy transfer between various firearm platforms.

This video details an experimental test to determine how many bricks are required to stop various bullet calibers, from .22 LR up to .50 BMG. The host, demonstrating familiarity with safe firearm handling and various platforms, tests handguns and rifles, showcasing the significant penetration power of larger calibers like the .50 AE and .50 BMG. The experiment provides a visual demonstration of projectile energy transfer and material resistance.
