These results mean absolutely nothing. It is for and experiment an entertainment, only. Do NOT make any conclusions. Especially if you decide to create a body or vehicle armour. There are plates made not only of different materials, but also different quality of material. Same goes for the bullets. For example: identical 7.62x39 made in Russia and China are two different bullets. They will have different markings on AR500 plate. But take a REAL bullet from a quality steel from WW2, and it will punch through AR500 like butter. All of the bullets will kill you. Good or bad quality. But when it comes to stopping one, be very careful. Always, have a reserve. Because you do not know if your plate or a bullet flying towards it is made of REAL steel or Chinesium.

Coins here in Thailand are magnetic & very tough , I tried to make a ring from one but gave up .

hi if you use the 4140 steel sheets 10 mm thick and combination of the uhmwpe and fiberglass and kevlar and aramid and those tiles. it will be good but thank you so much this homemade body armor will stop the rifle bullets. and use the resin and hardener to press those fabric together.

Have you tried a single sheet of UHMWPE, say 3/4 thick, vs multiple thin sheets or would that defeat the whole concept.

More proof that the hornady precision ammo velocities are way off the 3000 fps printed on the box. At 2800 fps, the 7PRC is basically no different than a 7mm rem mag.

I think it'd be interesting to put the material from an air bag wrapped around a tile to catch the frag and spalling done where's in the stack

What scope??

can someone link the discord server or where the link is?

Interesting. Would be interesting to test these against a Level III PE or Ceramic strike face.

I've used 12 dimes as shot in a 12 guage before. They make a mess!!!

That looks eerily similar to a Barnes tsx with nickel coating. It would be nice to see if you could get your hands on the barbed projectile for comparison

Your bipod is pretty loose, dude…tighten that thing up and your groups will follow. Also, add a level.

Regarding the nij iii steel plate, it was predictible, as we discussed earlyer on discord, both the low velocity -high mass tend to play into the realm that steel perform very well in, and the penetrator being close enough to the target in hardness (instead of having significantly more) cause that it can t zip trough like butter, and so yeah, it end up with the steel being able to take it But we can see against allu alloy that the penetrator does play it s role and allow to zip trough

Nice, looking forward to more custom slugs 😊

I’d really like to see this test with the weatherby select with the 177 hammer customs!

Blunderbuss!

Don't put those in a tube magazine! 😮

more testing. yes please.

I'll give ya a chance, subbed

I get way higher velocity with much less longshott...

You should try to not come off the gun on each shot, I used to do that as well... I got better groups when I stayed on the gun and cycled in place... good practice for hunting too so if you need a follow up shot you are ready. or have a way to index on your comb-- I have seen a guy that taped a foam earplug to his stock as an index bump, thought that was clever.

7000 series aluminum is WAY stronger than 6000… almost as strong as mild steel. Aluminum does make GIF armor for slower projectiles though add it absorbs a ton of energy.

I got tricked into watching this clown.

penny traits

No lead!! Great for the environmentals. Lol. Zinc pennies?

Did you notice any unburnt powder in the 30 grain , 7/8 oz shots? The velocity seemed a bit low and Longshot usually likes heavier payloads. I'll usually get around 1400 with 30 gr. with a 1 oz slug. Very interesting results!

Try using the I would try a strike face plate of S glass and an inch of E glass behind it.

7 prc smokes the 30-06. Dropped my 1000k bull in one shot. Flatter, faster, way more energy at distance. 7prc is a great round. 30-06 is fine for sub 300 yrd shots. If ya want to go long the 7 prc is the ticket.

new sub. This channel is criminally underrated.

Cool!

👍🏻

Fun round!

👍

Ive seen a few people mix graphene powder with plastic to create a material stronger than steel, i would be greatly interested if you would mix graphene powder with melted milk jugs to create a high density armour

Anybody try Corning ware?

yes yoiu did hit a fly

I am interested in everything you talked about. Keep up the great content.

Damage down range is the most interesting fact of them all. Very good and interesting video

I would call it a stop on the 308 - second target

Porcelain or silicone carbide tiles are the better options for blocking bullets. They have lower density than regular ceramics making them lighter stronger alternative.

You should have used porcelain tiles which are more impact resistant which means you can use less tile for the same bullet resistance and save in weight apparently.

Great shooting given that rickety table! Very interesting to see expansion testing beyond the typical 10-100 yds. That round mushrooms hugely but still holds together under 100 yds. Good to see it still opening up well at 1,000. Should be a perfect bullet at normal 50-600 yds hunting. I never appreciated shots beyond 300 yds until moving to Texas. You can have some wide open spaces with no cover. Anywhere from Texas and Arizona to North Dakota and Montana can be this way. Even Eastern Washington and especially Eastern Oregon. Thanks for a great review.

You can just buy a ceramic plate for $149.00 level IV and that will stop the LAP 5.56, 7.62x39, 308 and 30.06 ....well personally I wouldn't trust any plate against the 30.06 though.......👍😂🤪🇺🇲

I'd like to see more videos about armor. It's interesting can copper bullets be stopped by 1cm of Glass composite. Looks like soft lead is the reason why GFRP can stop even 44. Also curious can 556 and 762 be stopped by plate of 2mm AR500 steel with GFRP glued to it with epoxy at the back. I suppose that even 2mm stainless steel bonded with GFRP with epoxy and side clamps can stop lead riffle bullets. If GFRP stops 44 and can't stop 556, which have less energy, than reasons can be pointed tip (which also makes a tip firm) and speed. Pointed tip can be harder than pistol bullet tip so something with hardness can break it and plastic absorbs energy.

Very interested in the synthetic gel AND your target builds. Really enjoy your channel.

As many vids as you can do without getting worn out is good, the experiments and knowledge you're putting out is very rare and unique on this platform. The rifle bulletproof plates and glass are my favorite but anything is good. From all the vids i've seen online i think 1 or 2 layers of segmented 10mm tile, over 14 gauge sheet metal, over lvl 3a armor can stop 308, meaning full coverage lvl 3a armor could be modified to full coverage rifle armor, almost like the FRAS armor from Safe Life Defence. Another theory from vids ive seen is that its possible to make a large bullet proof rolling shield out of 1 layer of segmented tile, over 10 to 12 layers of cement backer board (which could easily be drilled and screwed together with long bolts), with your diy rifle rated glass bracketed on top of the boards/tile, and all of it on top of and attached to a wheeled frame, you then have an "affordable" (but heavy) SWAT rolling shield that you can see through, application being homestead defence on ones long driveway and more realistically just for fun.

I'd be interested to see how you made synthetic gel.
