Hydraulic Tests
Matt at LFD Research has a series of "high energy" research projects up on YouTube. In the one below, he looks at the hydraulic energy transfer of different weights of .223/5.56 bullets.
Frankly, I was a bit surprised by the destructive potential of 40 grain bullets. I can see why they are good for varmint hunting. It does make me wonder what a gelatin test would show insofar as penetration.
Matt has been a guest on The Polite Society Podcast in the past to talk about his research. I think this type of home-grown amateur research is interesting because it is something that we can all do.

That IS interesting... I'm surprised the 55gr did so little damage too. I wonder if that bottle's top wasn't as tight as the others?
ReplyDeleteThese massacres are simply the result of inhuman attitude that simply make them comparable to animals since humans are supposed to be the most sensible ones in this whole universe, so while you handover a gun to anyone else you must take special care . Those who sell guns must also take care in their mind that their illegal guns can kill them too.
