WHAT HAPPENS IF YOU SHOOT A PROPANE TANK?
This guide details an experiment by Edwin Sarkissian testing the ignition potential of propane tanks when struck by .50 BMG ammunition. It covers the use of both Full Metal Jacket (FMJ) and Armor Piercing Incendiary Tracer (APIT) rounds, demonstrating that even incendiary rounds may not reliably ignite propane without an external flame source. The experiment highlights the importance of understanding ammunition types and their effects on pressurized containers.
