When you spend 40,000 on training and gear and get sniped by farmer John with a BAR on the first day of the boogaloo
The BAR safari in 338 win is a boogaloo rated weapon in my eyes.
ayyye I have a Belgium made .338 win mag BAR. She's one of my prized guns.
@@APage-hn6cz I wish to hell I owned one. I've stopped taking people's offers to shoot guns I can't afford to own lol.
Quick question with the boogaloo stuff, why is the assumption that farmer John will be picking off people just passing by? Unless the scenario is that we are cutting through his fields or something.
@@ejmoreno270 We probably will be cutting through his fields to stay off of the roads and also so we can hide from the government drones.
When Beto says you shouldn't own weapons of war. So you buy 2 tanks
Or two lever rifles!
Hahaha I was litteraly thinking does anybody notice two tanks in the background 😂
I want a video on those tanks
Some say the second amendment was talking about weapons of the time I'm buying some cannons and lineing them up in front of my house loaded with grape shot and ball kinde of like buck and ball
Fun fact. One of the founding fathers owned an entire naval warship.
"What are you hunting with a 7mm Magnum?"
"Yes."
You cannot beat the ballistics of a 7MM magnum! I also have a Remington 700 I have some Hornet 110 ballistic tipped round! Them things are coming out of that mother F&$@;# at 3600 fps there are not many full caliber rounds chuckin led that fast! 500 yard kill shots all day long no problem! One of the flattest shooting rounds out there! Love it just love it!
Yeah buddy! They hit hard really hard! I shot a 300 plus pound black bear at 350 yards! From impact it moved 15 yards and the round still did a full pass through! When I dressed it out it was running with no heart. Lung heart lung! But I could only find 2 or 3 pieces of the heart and they were shredded! They are a devastating round and that's was with a Hornady 139 gr BTSP! But glad to hear you are out there throwing lead down range that's always a great day!
Whatever I want. I use my 300 win mag with 200gr bullets for everything
Same gun I hunt with 7mm mag. One shot drop

Things are getting tough when the deer are wearing body armor.
That's why 50bmg is the new deer round.
Thank God flame throwers are legal in America. Body armor won't stop that!
dwheeler016 Right? Bears are gettin organized too.
It's not that animal are wearing armor its amateur hunters that cant tell the difference between a animal and a person...a similar accident just happened a few days ago ...
As long as they don't shoot back you guys should be fine. ;)
I picked up a carrier and some plates from AR500. Probably would never need it but Schumer says I can't have it.
Good plan, if they do get banned you can sell it for twice the price you bought it for
AR500 steel isn’t NIJ rated. Pray you didn’t get a bad batch.
@@willypeter8861 Neither are Ballistic helmets but hey, people still wear them and depend on them lol
RezaQin Thats exactly why you need it.
@@TheMikeControl ballistic helmets are absolutely NIJ rated
Can you shoot it with African game rounds? .375H&H, 416 Ribgy, 500 Jeffery, 600 Nitro Express etc etc.
Even if it doesn’t penetrate the armour I would imagine the concussive force would kill you
@@tobiojr most likely it would fracture ribs or maybe the chest plate
@rob roy I think they still use them in Africa, no?
@rob roy 416 Ribgy is the primary competitor to the 375 H&H in big game hunting. Not really an oddball.
The biggest hunting round is a 700 nitro express try that
I guess I musta missed the “drive your Abrams to the range day” email... damnit not again 🤦♂️
Did I see 2 tanks in the background? Hey Eric, will it stop a 120mm ?
Ash Merch Hmmm, will it stop?
What’s up with the tanks in the background???🤔🤔🧐
Dude i ask myself the same thing.
You beat me to the question lol, are they expecting something?
you heard him, hunting season is upon us :)
Because Merica!
@@BullittGT40 Nothing like having a tank on your range
Love the fact there’s 2 tanks just chilling in the background.
It to remind the government were still here lmao jk idfk
As soon as you said I can’t imagine a situation where you’d be shot at with a hunting rifle I immediately thought of Alaska state troopers, wildlife division. Or heck any game warden/DCNR officer
Jack Miller the episode with the drunken 45-70 wielding native...
They didn’t even bother with the vests
You burglarize someone's house, run out, then just get nailed with a 375 H&H.
Yep lol.
I work as a correctional officer here in Alaska. I will ask a Trooper if they know of a Trooper having been shot. I work tonight as a matter of fact so....
@@jeanettewest ask them what type of firearms they need to be concerned about up here most. ARs or bolt action lol.
The situation where youre getting shot with a hunting rifle is reddawn
Brian Pardee or a game warden after a poacher
Go Wolverines🤣
or the big igloo lol
WOLVERINES!!!
I wanted to see a 300wm. I know that's a little much for hunting here in the south unless you're hunting a power pole, but I'd be cool to see if I'd stop it.
That's what we use for Elk, Bear, and Moose here in Colorado!
Similar ballistics as the 7mm
@Augusto Pinochet 300 has more energy, but 7mm a smaller bullet that penetrates better. The parent cartridge doesn't matter. It's all about FFS, bullet constitution, and diameter.
300 wm would smoke that plate.
@@Trebuer22 not a hunting bullet. FMJ maybe, hunting bullets are designed to expand, not blow through targets.

Great video. You might want to double-check the velocities for the 30-06, as they looked about 1,000 fps too slow.
Ar500 3+ stops 30-06 NOT 30-06 black tip
@@seven1six I think you replied to the wrong comment 😉.
I would like see it go up against 220 Swift
Yeah 1800 ft/lbs is what my 30-06 has a 500 yards. Not 100
Because you can see velocities on Internet videos...
Can we just take a second to admire that magnificent shirt this man has?
typo, you used the 45-70 fps and energy for the 30-06 data also
I saw that too. Said the ‘06 was at 1500 fps lol
Yea, noticed the same thing.
I was going to say! My 165gr 30-06 rounds have 2750fps at the muzzle
From the title, I was hoping you'd be flinging some plates into the rifles
I'm guessing it's been mentioned it's Level III+ not IIIA :D
Dr. Delaney III+. IIIa is pistol. III is rifle and III+ is a little better than III
I would like to see A LOT of people doing ammo test and body armor test videos so that we can better confirm what is good and what is not good.
@@yungivanc Mr GunsNGear and I test a bit of armor.
Top 5 Tanks for When The Man Comes?
No top 5 steel 30 ton coffins for The Man to plug you in with drone mounted hellfire missiles or an A-10 strafe.
Terminalsanity Well, that’s very pessimistic. You say that as if tanks are worthless because in shtf the military is going to immediately start bombing the crap out of civilians. Tanks are still extremely formidable in combat, or the military wouldn’t keep using them.
@@JohnW-yv6yp No just realistic. Tanks are worthless on the modern battlefield without air superiority you will never see them deployed by the US military without it.

Well he did shoot .30-06. Same round used in Garand M-1 and Springfield 1903
@@michaelanderson1859 Bullet type makes a big difference against steel, though. Standard .30-06 ball ammunition would likely sail right through a Level III steel plate.
7.65x53mm anyone?
@@themerrydamber FBI standard is III+ stops .30-06 AP rounds. That's literally the standard used to determine III+.
@@gs4811 III+ isn't a standardized level
As a deer colored guy, I would feel much safer wearing armor when hunting solo in the Midwest one day.
You sir have made me actually lol. Cheers
just do what the law says! wear the yellow vest. it goes all the way around. a metal plate dont!
You would probably be ok if you didn't have antlers strapped to your head. In those cases I don't think it matters what color you are, I think you'd be dead. O my goodness, an albino deer on two legs, SHOOT IT.
Smart.
Awwww
Great video as always! Love that shirt btw, gave me a good laugh! 😂
Can we get some gel ballistic's behind these armor plates to see how bad of damage it will do to a body potentially if the shot makes it through the armor?
The blunt force trauma of the 45 /70 round would put you on the ground without going though the plate with cracked ribbs or bruised innereds that's a lot of energy to receive to the body the hotter bear load would be massively painful
Check out the wound channel. He’s put gel behind AR500 and shot it with 5.56.
@@glenpope4955 damn that sounds like you wish that round would have done the job
@@DOPExPIRATE the difference between high velocity light weight bullet and slow momentum of a heavy slug has been a great argument forever in the papers since the start of firearms history
Up close the light bullets are devastating but at longer distances slowed down not the same effectiveness
Where a heavy slug has the momentum to kill the 45 colt slow heavy slug at 600 yards will go though pine boards farther than a 223 bullet will read old Elmer Keith the father of the 44 magnum who wrote several great books about weaponry and his research /life if you haven't I will guarantee your pleasure of shooting will go up LOL
@Mexico City personally I don't want be hit with any bullet out of a firearm lol
I know in some fiddling around test the force of being hit is intense regardless of bullet weight shoot coconuts with a 25-06 watch what a 87grain bullet at 3900fps can do LOL
Love to see you try 243 with a 55 grain, or 22-250 or 204 ruger. speed beats body armour so that would be a good test. Great video
Somewhere on here a different used .22-250 and I think it was level 3+ or level 4 before it actually stopped it.
Different channel*
I had a similar thought why no .243 or .270? Both are way more common than that TUI he tested.
Dare I say it, I almost feel like they didnt want to defeat the plate.
@@Terminalsanity I have a .270. The .270 and the .243 don't get the love. Not "sexy" enough or "tactical."
375 H&H would be a fun round to send at it. The gold standard of big game and safari hunting. A lot of folks have one sitting in their gun safe
alaskajohn907 The all time undisputed champ! .375 H&H for the win!
I remember when the guys at velocity munitions started up a few years back, I live about 20 minutes from fort Scott out here in Kansas. They bought an old building that as far as I know hadn’t been used prior to that since before I was born. Within a few months they were open and that place is amazing inside, small store still but extremely high quality goods in there. Really glad to see you guys trying there ammo, I think they definitely deserve the publicity. They’re really nice and down to earth guys in there and they’ve worked really hard in the last few years developing all sorts of different in house ammo. Glad to see my little small town mentioned on a huge channel like this. Lol probably the first time and the last. But still, nice to see it.
I wear armor when hunting because there are jackasses out there.
I've seen too many hunting *"accidents"*
Oh. Hello there fellow Touhou fan. Take it easy!
Korya Iine TAKE IT EASY!!!!
I don’t hunt anymore because of the dip shits in the woods that have never hunted but have to impress their wife and father/brother in law by taking his 12 year old son out and bringing home a deer.
Especially if you are hunting with Dick Cheney...
@@buckbundy8642 -- I prefer to just sit in my tree stand with a cooler of beer, watch the deer go by, and then talk about the ones that got away when I get home... It's a lot less work that way and at my age, I'm not really all that inclined to do much that requires "effort"... :)
I would love to see a spring scale rigged up behind the armor, how many pounds of force hit, they really rocked the post, could you stand after the hit?
William Werman I wouldn’t be standing after any of that
The force itself won't knock you over if you aren't knocked over shotting the round it won't knock you over getting hit by it. Getting the wind knocked out of you if you don't have proper padding or placement of the armor would put you on the ground.
Getting the wind knocked out of you would be the best case scenario. The energy delivered by these rounds could easily break ribs and/or cause internal bleeding even if the plate stops them.
@@xXbrokenvoidXx considering that this is a hard plate that doesn't deform after being hit, i don't think you would break any ribs. It would probably bruise you but the energy of the round is going to disperse over the entire surface of the plate.
Stand behind a steel plate with you off hand on the back. With it hanging there smack it with a 2lb hammer and see how the hand feels.
Another fantastic episode gents! Thank you
I am addicted to y'alls armor testing videos. Please do more soon!
Hunting in some WMAs practically requires body armor
So fudds are less of threat during the boogaloo?
Tadicuslegion78 if you had level 3 I would worry about it breaking ribs. Worst you get will be bruising.
Tadicuslegion78 I bet you’re a bunch of fun at parties. It was a joke, we all know fudds are not going to participate in the Boogaloo
@ 338 win mag will absolutely devastate you even with trauma pads if you try using lvl 3+ instead of quality lvl 4. Even with lvl 4 it is more than just "something to consider". Not all hunting is done with these more common rounds.
You were shooting Level III+ armor. Level IIIA+ armor is an upgraded pistol grade armor made by Safe Life Defense, and it would definitely not stop those hunting bullets.
Just casually got the tanks in the background lol I love it talk about some bald eagles there buddy 😂
In the case of a deer wearing a plate carrier ! :D
Bold statement on the shirt. Eric the tanks are a big tease.
Eric is a big tease.
Great info to know thanks for spending time makeing this video
OK, i'm gonna check your store to see if I can get that t-shirt. Love it
30-06 at 1598 fps? Is that for real?
More like 2598 FPS at 2800 ft-lbf
No kidding, what's up with that???
Yeah, I went and looked at a few tables. I was thinking I know it can't be shedding that much velocity.

I was shot through the right side of my chest mounting a horse in Arizona back in the 90s , went right through . I rode over 15 miles to get back to where I came from . I'm an Aussie and I still stayed in the US for another 2 years after that . I believe to this day they where after the house but hit me when I mounted . Cheers from Australia Regards Dan 👍
Funny I just got home and this vid was posted. We were doing some steel shooting at our home range yesterday and decided to sacrifice one of our 10", 1/2" thick AR500 gongs to the power of a 7mm ultra mag. As soon as my buddy showed me the round, I knew it would be no contest. Soft tipped ammo and it made a perfectly round hole right through at 100 yards. That thing is a true monster.
Hunting at the moment lol so cold out just happy I got my deer
If u have a 30-06 black tip AP round will go clean through a AR500 plate
Just happens to make this video all nonchalant like with two tanks in the background
Very Cool Armor test video Eric !!!!!!!!!!!
Are those tanks in the background real? That's so cool!
I could see game wardens being interested in this; especially in some areas of the state.
They should probably just quit their job of harassment.
They should get ceramic armor not steel.
Knew a guy that lost a cow from Chicago residents playing outdoorsman during deer season. Apparently cattle look a lot like deer to those from the city. The same year when checking in my deer the Game Warden told me about another group of city folk that mistook a VW Bug for a deer. This is a great use for that armor we all have sitting by the gun safe
I'm glad I got a set of their III+ plates like this a few years ago. Would like to get some other plates, and a more streamlined, carrier to set up, but having a Banshee Shellback with these plates definitely has me a lot more comfortable than not having it.
“Love the shirt Eric”
I love the TANKS just chilling in the back ground!
Remember, penetration is ideal but transferring enough kinetic energy *still* destroys the Redcoat.
Thank you thank you thank you for showing the 7mm mag i asked another big channel to do a range review and shooting test and was told he had no reason to do so and wasnt gonna
I would have loved to see a 300 RUM in the caliber line up
You’re out (deer) hunting, and for what ever reason you’re wearing your body armour, I don’t know...Amerika!🇺🇸
zbudda I can imagine deer will start firing back one day 🤣
Well, we have to wear orange because there are idiots around who will apparently shoot at anything that moves. Why not armor up?
f5tornadeau yeah no kidding, I heard from a customer before when I worked at a gun shop that he had heard idiots dumping mags at deer even around here in MD.
I cant imagine the hunter WONT shoot them in the side or back! OOPS! let the cat out, didn't I?? at close range, wont they hit them in the head or neck anyway? stupid hunters, anyway!
theres a gun dealer here in Australia testing 115gr .177 cal tungsten rods being fired from a custom hydrogen powered rifle at 25000 plus feet per second that would cut through that armour like a hot knife through butter... at 1000yds from the muzzle it has 0.14 inches drop and gets there in 0.08 seconds.....
Gonna be an interesting future... i live down the rd from this guy :)
hes had successful proof of concept tests and drilled through 2x half inch tool steel plates like it was nothing.. producing some insane energy too... 200 thousand plus foot pounds
Nothing to do with the video, but I bumped into Eric at a walgreens in Arizona. Said hello, and he's a laid back chill guy, was cool.
I would love to see you do more videos with 7mm rem mag. That's my all time favorite hunting round.
Is that your new daily driver in the background there, that ought to be safe in the Atlanta rush hour traffic?
hahah love the shirt buddy!
Man, I love those all weather 77’s too. I’m super jealous of yours in 7.62x39.
love the two tanks grazing in the field
Nothing better than free range tanks.
we had a small old cannon on the town square! some people with a little powder and a fuse would light it off around the 4th.. put a hole thru the buildings window across the street from it. NOW it has a nice concrete lining put into the barrel with NO hole in it! wonder why?
Once they took scary looking .223 military rifles away, they will go for "high powered sniper rifles" aka. hunting rifles.
There is no doubt.
There ARE a few Dems that have started they want to take ALL guns, including hunting rifles. ALL of them.
The Democrats/Liberals/Progressives want to confiscate all guns but tend to do it incrementally.
we are cats and we want guns
3A+ and 3+ are quite different. That plate is a 3+. A 3A+ wouldn’t stop a rifle round but it’ll be great against handguns and knives, knives cause the + indicated stab and slash resistance just for y’all who don’t know

Do you fools not realize that without parasite pigs to point pistols at citizens to get them to comply, every single gun control law would be a mere suggestions?
Please, feel free to publicly prove me wrong. Just tell us the last time a politician, voter, activist ect., ANYONE other than your pig pals, personally took away any citizens firearms with their own two hands.
This is surprisingly practical. Plenty of murders happen with whatever the murderer can get their hands on, which may well be their hunting rifle. Plus, plenty of accidents happen when hunting, might be good to keep protected.
And, you know.....in the event of the hootenanny
I would love to see you repeat the same testing with NON-lead rounds like the Barnes or other Lead free rounds.
If SHTF a lot of hunting caliber rifles will come into play. Good to know how armor holds up to them.
Just stay away from steel armor and get a higher NIJ rating of armor
2:22 energy is energy. Thank you for the physics reminder.
Robert Mills , Lol. But a lot more at play here than just “energy”. As I commented elsewhere, speed is one part of the equation, perhaps even the most important part. I wish Eric and the gang would have included an ultra fast competitor, like a 22-250 or the oldie but goodie 220 Swift with a tiny lightweight bullet (4300fps+). I think it would surprise a lot of people.
Flyover Country A 220 swift with solid coppers would FOR SURE have punched through that plate like butter
I bet even the teeny tiny .17 Remington would punch through at less than 50 yards
@@xAeschylusx I don't think a copper bullet is able to pierce a steel armor plate even if it's pretty fast. It's about the material not only velocity or energy.
@@highvelocity6529 Wrong. 😁 Copper and lead core FMJ will zip right through a steel plate when it's fast enough. M193 5.56 is lead core FMJ and it will go right through level 3 steel. Look it up here, there are tons of videos.
high velocity Yeah that’s not right at all. There’s a few videos of solid copper .270 rounds punching through these plates
Makes perfect sense to wear body armor while hunting. There's a lot of people with guns out in a patch of land at once, it's not unreasonable that there would be a risk of taking a stray round or being confused for game.
If you still have this plate around, I think the FMJ ball versions of these calibers would be cool to see.
I would love to see 22-250 it's a popular round in the southwest
Amazing calibre. My brother used to load his own for one, pushed them up to 4200fps and got a local 900yd small bore record. Needless to say, that particular barrel didn't last long.
Amazes me that people watch videos and thumbs down them, if you dont like them, simply dont watch them. Easy
Really impressive what that ar500 takes
love the shirt, bro!!!
The reason why people should wear body armor is that there are a lot of Sound Shooters “ out there that really don’t identify there target 🎯.
Great videos guys can’t wait to see what y’all are going to do next
Did we just watch part 1? I feel Like I only watched the first half since they didn't continue to failure.
He's using a bunch of relatively low velocity, high mass hunting rounds. You need something traveling faster to defeat steel.
Precisely my point. I guess I'm spoiled by the Likes of Mythbusters and Demolition ranch. If at first you don't suceed, step up your game.
Well, those are all common hunting rounds. What round do you think would go through the armor at 100 yards if 7mm magnum won’t? Most people aren’t hunting with a .300 win mag.
@@JohnW-yv6yp I am
Proud Republican What are you hunting? Definitely overkill for deer.
257 Weatherby would be interesting.
257 weatherboard would definitely make it through with the lighter bullets.
Might have to be closer than 100 yards though
@@xAeschylusx yeah I wash wondering if the lighter weight Barnes x might make it through at fifty yards. Just due to velocity.
Properly loaded with the velocity on the higher end I'm sure it would get a 1/4 inch hole in it plus whatever's behind it would be a bit messy !! Try out shooting whole coconuts with that 257 LOL
Great video Eric, do you think you could show what would happen with a full combat load and say 7.62 and 5.56 hitting the loaded magazines that people carry and the armor, or say a Kabar....Camelback system...etc.?
Forget about the tanks. That T-shirt is all I want for Christmas!
Edit: and the gloves
No kidding, I can't find the shirt though!
People have been hit while hunting many times, so body armor isn't really a bad idea. Safety First, imirite??👍✌
@digital1911 Safety is Paramount when handling firearms. I got my First gun at the ripe old age of 9, and Safety was drilled in to me from day one. I'd broken the Half Century mark before I had my First and ONLY ND, proving that even a "seasoned pro" ISN'T exempt!
Waiting for v2 of this vid... 300 win mag, a tank maybe...
Idk if 300 mag would make it through or not..
Velocity is what beats steel, but 300 mag has a lot of energy.

Great video 👍🏻 this is what we like to see
458 Lott with a 500 gr bullet
I always laugh when people call 223/556 rifles “high powered”, I. mean they’re literally a glorified 22. They’re fast, that’s about it.
I guess it's due to its good armor penetrating capabilities and tendency to tumble after hitting the target resulting is terrible injuries :-) If we compare it to standard handgun rounds that's a significant difference. If we compare .223 / 556 to other rifle / intermediate callibers it really pales in signifiance,
Mateusz Fakeman 223/556 is to 7.62x39 what 22lr is to 32 s&w.., Slightly more energy despite the difference in size. But a 22lr is pretty much a pee shooter compared to literally anything else. So the point is that 223/556 (though they are not technically the same) are like a generic starting point with virtually nothing but obscure cartridges underneath it, and everything else being more powerful.. So calling it “high powered” is practically a joke.
@@hellishgrin4604 Let me politely disagree. . 223 or 556 for that matter is an amazing cartridge. As long as we don't talk about hunting medium to large game, 556 is more than adequate to stop any human sized target. You don't really need more energetic cartridges to do it reliably. I would even say that 556 is much more vesatile than 7.62 due to minimal recoil and flat trajectory. It is also miles ahead from any relatively slow hunting cartridge for self defense purposes because it will reliably penetrare any armor up to level 3a.
Mateusz Fakeman Oh, i’m not saying it’s a bad round, just the very weak end of the spectrum of calibers, so “high powered” isn’t exactly fitting.
@@hellishgrin4604 They call basically any intermediate to rifle caliber rifle 'high-powered' and that is because when it is compared to pistols it is indeed 'high-powered'. Police mainly deal with suspects using handguns, Rifles are still rare.
Great video! Anyone else notice he kept calling it level IIIA+ instead of III+? Pretty big difference
You forgot to mention out of a 16” barrel in the m855. Coming out of an 18”+ it would not survive
That is level III not III+, your talking about, the III+ is stronger at close range a 30-06 ap round will go right through this.
