22LR PENETRATION TEST PT.3 (WOOD TEST)

Published on August 19, 2017
Duration: 6:21

This video tests the penetration capabilities of 22LR ammunition through wood. The CCI Mini-Mag and a hollow-point subsonic round were used to test penetration through one, two, and three pieces of wood. The CCI Mini-Mag penetrated one and two pieces of wood, while the hollow-point subsonic also penetrated one and two pieces. Neither round successfully penetrated three pieces of wood.

Quick Summary

In a 22LR wood penetration test, both CCI Mini-Mag and hollow-point subsonic rounds successfully penetrated one and two pieces of wood. However, neither round had sufficient power to penetrate three pieces of wood, indicating the penetration limitations of the 22LR cartridge against denser materials.

Frequently Asked Questions

How did CCI Mini-Mag 22LR perform in a wood penetration test?

In the test, CCI Mini-Mag 22LR ammunition successfully penetrated one and two pieces of wood. However, it was unable to penetrate three pieces of wood, indicating its limitations against thicker barriers.

What was the penetration capability of hollow-point subsonic 22LR through wood?

The hollow-point subsonic 22LR ammunition also demonstrated penetration through one and two pieces of wood. Similar to the CCI Mini-Mag, it did not have enough power to penetrate three pieces of wood in this specific test scenario.

Which 22LR ammunition performed better in the wood penetration test?

Both CCI Mini-Mag and hollow-point subsonic 22LR rounds showed comparable performance in this wood penetration test. Neither round was able to penetrate three pieces of wood, suggesting similar energy transfer characteristics against this material.

What are the limitations of 22LR ammunition for penetration based on this wood test?

This test suggests that 22LR ammunition, even with rounds like CCI Mini-Mag, has limited penetration capabilities against dense materials like multiple layers of wood. It is generally not considered a high-penetration round for significant barriers.
