    Cast iron is extremely heavy, but it's also extremely brittle. I used to install tile, and occasionally during remodels we would have to remove old cast iron tubs for replacement, and we found it was easier to shatter them with a sledge hammer than to lug them down 1 or 2 flights of stairs.

  • @yosefpolinsky7667
    @yosefpolinsky7667 4 года назад +173

    It seems to me that the .40 hole was only slightly larger because the bullet hit a bit farther from the edge than the .45 did, so the cavity had room to widen to it's fullest, but since the edge is stronger, the .45's hole didn't have the space to get a full radius of destruction.

    • @kylesummers1565
      @kylesummers1565 Год назад +14

      The .40 is a great round, but then again so is the .357 mag revolver round which nobody talks about these days. I prefer the .45 because I am very comfortable with it. Shoot what you are comfortable with. If it is a .22 LR then so be it. I know I wouldn't want to get shot with a .22 LR, and some of those guns are super-accurate. Peace, Love!!

    • @guitarandmore69

    • @SuperD00D
      @SuperD00D 3 года назад +11

      Because it probably barely went through so most of the energy was dumped right into the pan. With good hollow point bullets, all 3 rounds will dump all energy into a human, and they all do comparable damage. Around 350-590 foot pounds for all 3 rounds. Max of 500 for 9mm and 590 for the other two. Average 430 for 9mm and 500 for the other two. Not a significant difference. They're a little more powerful but nothing significant and they are all just relatively "weak" handgun rounds, and all 3 have the capacity to easily kill a man.

    • @PaulVerhoeven2
      @PaulVerhoeven2 3 года назад +12

      Swinging (and movement in the direction of the shot in general) is the sign of momentum transfer (3rd law of Newton), not kinetic energy.
      Energy transfer destroys, momentum transfer moves. 40 have a bit more energy than 45 if loaded to the same % of SAAMI maximums and shot from the barrels of the same length. Simply because 40 has much, MUCH higher pressure while just a bit lower area of the cross-section of the bore.
      There is no magic,just basic physics. Energy = area of the cross-section of the bore multiplied by the integral of the pressure over the path of the bullet (path in the barrel being from the rearmost part of the widest part of the bullet - so not counting boat tail if present - to the muzzle if you are interested in muzzle energy).

    I think the .45 hit closer to the edge which is why the hole it left was a bit smaller and lopsided. My bet would be if you hit them both well away from the edge the .45 would leave a bigger hole.

I would like to see the 357Sig and the .357 Magnum added to the test. I’m fortunate to have an HK P2000SK which can shoot 9mm, .40SW, and the 357Sig round. My subjective feel is that the 40 and 357Sig are quite similar in the hand with such a small ‘subcompact.’

    I mostly expected the results you experienced. The iron in the average skillet is fairly brittle. My cousin worked for a cookware manufacturing concern; he told me that the iron is subjected to some sort of treatment once the skillet is formed to harden it. The spalling around each hole on the backside of the skillet and the lack of a concave quality to the exit suggests the metal is far less elastic than typical plate iron.

      I guess theres differences in cast iron as we shot one about month ago with Ruger 22cal and penetrating was really close.Fastest rounds was sold out so we couldnt get fastest 22cal rounds.

    The reason the .40 made the same size hole as the .45 is due to the round you used. The .40 was a flat tip vs the typical round .45. As seen in 55 seconds into the video.

  • @ST-bk5uf
    @ST-bk5uf 3 года назад +25

    45 was closer to the edge. It would be interesting to see a closer shot with the 45 in the middle of the target. I think it would be bigger than the 40.

  • @grisher111
    @grisher111 Год назад +5

    Cast iron is kind of brittle to shock compared to the steels. Different cast irons will do differently and react differently to the shock of the bullet but I tend to think a 22 mag will put a hole it in. Like others have said, look at how the 45 hit closest to the rim. More important, look how the 45 moved the skillet--that sucker was in it's death throe. It's satisfying to know when the Skillet Zombie apocalypse happens just about anything will do. The 45 created violent skillet death throes as soon as it hit. Can you try throwing a hammer at the skillet next time?

  • @psychonaut3507
    @psychonaut3507 4 года назад +3

    Probably would have been a good idea to turn the skillet around when shooting,the curved edges provide a perfect surface for stray materials to ricochet back in the direction of the shooter. This is why most hard targets for plinking are designed flat so as to expel the excess material parallel to the target rather than in the direction of the shooter.just food for thought :)

  • @Mark-mm1ke
    @Mark-mm1ke 6 лет назад +8

    I thought they would ricochet off. Boy was I wrong. And I thought the .45 would have won the 'hole size' contest if it had been hit closer to center. I think hitting so close to the edge kept the size down. jmo. Loved the video. Nice shooting!

  • @dougolgreybearddinowoodydu1845
    @dougolgreybearddinowoodydu1845 3 года назад +1

    I'm confused as you said they were similar bullets, and yes they all had fmj bullets. However the .40 had a flat point fmj the others didn't. This would make a different wound chanel (even in cast iron) compared to a round nose fmj don't you think?

  • @danielhiggins8798
    @danielhiggins8798 6 лет назад +158

    I thought you were using a real cast iron skillet. That's a Chinese copy of a skillet. The real ones are almost 1/2" thick. A .22 would punch a hole in that one you used.
