Will 2000+ fps 357 MAG Penetrate IIIA Body Armor? #shorts #357 #bodyarmor
This video tests the penetration capabilities of a 357 Magnum round, specifically Norma 80-grain NXD projectiles traveling over 2000 fps, against Level IIIA body armor. The test demonstrates that while the armor sustained significant damage, including ripping the backing material, it successfully stopped the projectile. The test was repeated with a lever-action rifle, yielding similar results.
