Ok
You should try shooting a old Buffalo gun
Hey Scott, how many toilets do you think a .50 cal would go through?
Thanks Scott. I live in greater Yellowstone and I deal with bear and more. It's because of you I'm choosing to get the 460mag not the 500
You should see if Brandon could make you A shoulder fired 20 MM
I hope you enjoyed the video and thanks for watching!
Welcome
Thanks for posting!
Always the best intros 👏
Hey mate I’m from Australia and failed my gun license so you are my next best thing❤
Also first like 😊
Love your videos
Another top notch production Scott!! We need you to say 10 times: I will NOT blow this gun up in the name of science.
Don't give him any ideas.
@@svracer7808but it would be interesting to see
Time to load up a spicy round.
No this one must be preserved for history.
Don't worry he still has his 4bore to blow up.
The brass at 12:12 managed to eject from the gun, hit his arm and land upright😂😂 that’s incredible!!
It stole the show
Caught that aswell😃
Remember the bottle flip challenge?
Youve got good eyes
Dude Perfect Bullet.
12:12 Dude look at the Shell casing landing up right! Awesome!
Scott, you really help this vet smile. No matter how down or out I'm feeling, I can't help but smile when I watch your videos. Your positivity and humor are bulletproof against my bad days.
That is soooo true, mate. Semper Fi..!
@@peterbiesbroek Semper Fi, brother.
HOOAH!
Same bro
Look into psilocybin treatment, its changing many peoples lives.
did nobody see the casing land at 12:12
thats just amazing
Honestly quite incredible
Better than his table flips! 😂
Oh my🤯
Did that blow your tiny mind? You 10 or something?
@@couldyou4745 whats your problem..
Thank you for what you do Scott. My uncle passed away suddenly this week and this video is helping me keep in good spirits while getting things ready for the funeral tomorrow
Sorry man I wish you good hopes in your future.
Jeff Banks my deepest Condolences
We offer our sincere condolences to your late uncle. God bless him.
12:15 the way that shell landed itself 😊
Sick as hell
ye i saw it to and wanted to say smth
but u already did
can somone pleas edit that with the ohhhhh
like the og memes?
like monster scool style?
I was about to say the same think it was awesome
Lever action rifles never fail to impress. Especially one with a big punch and a pure sleek finish!
Any company that manufacture lever actions and doesn’t make one in 500 mag is doing the world a disservice. Thank you big horn armory for bringing us the match made in heaven and thank you Scott for sharing that insight with the world. National treasure.
I will say, most of them make a 45/70 which I can understand being "close enough"
I think it's a natural convergence. Lever action is the best type for anti-materiel rifles
@@1stCallipostle45-70 is the more powerful round...
Really gotta appreciate this guys dedication to shooting stuff and being silly for us fr. Like other gun channels ain't nearly as entertaining and his edits get to the point rather than drag the video. Much love brother
The ONLY channel where you'll see a chronograph tossed in a woodchipper haha.
Amen to that!
Right when I'm trying to watch someone shooting a gun I don't need a five minute explanation of said gun 😉
Some of the best firearms content on YT, hands down
The fact that the casing after the first glue landed upright was amazing
Right can't believe he didn't notice
I never expected to look at a 500 magnum with a 350 grain hollow point and think it was small. Thanks Scott.
Lol I take it you saw the 4 bore explode two zombie heads in a row…
It’s small but powerful :))))
Indeed, looks almost puny compared to that 4-bore cartridge he fired a few videos ago!
Still turned the zombie into a demogorgon 😀
@@drtidrow What DOESN'T look small compared to THAT THING? lol
That movement from 12:10 was epic just notice the shell standing
oh hell yeah nice catch!
Im wondering why this comment isn't the most liked here! Who cares about bottleflips? Scott makes shellflips💯!
Yeah wow 😂
it looks unreal at .25 speed
Wow
I didn't even catch that
I am amazed that 5-gallon container went like a rocket. That is a truly dangerous weapon.
A 5 gallon jug moving that fast can cause serious damage.
Your mother
No the truly dangerous weapon is Scott, I can't be the only one impressed by how clean his shot on the Furby was at 11:50. He went clean through its mouth with a round the same diameter as it, thats some marksmanship.
Actually every gun is dangerous
@@Ryan_ryanracc ACKCHYUALLY...
If you look at the loads for a modern 45-70 (non-trapdoor), you'll find 405gr +P ammo from Buffalo Bore, Grizzly, and other manufacturers that is about 100 fps faster with similar weight bullets. When you consider the ballistic coefficient of the 45-70 over the 500 S&W, you'll see the 45-70 gives better performance with both distance and penetration. Here's a quick comparison from 22 inch barrel rifles:
300 grain Buffalo Bore 45-70 = 2350 fps
300 grain Hornady 500 S&W = 2248 fps
350 grain Buffalo Bore 45-70 = 2100 fps
350 grain Hornady 500 S&W= 2056 fps
400 grain Buffalo Bore 45-70 = 2000 fps
400 grain Cor-Bon 500 S&W = 1971 fps
Scott: *tries his darndest to cycle to action*
“You just got ja-“
Scott: *”I N C O R R E C T”*
learning from the ballistic gel block breaking the chipper in the last video and then immediately throwing the zombie gel in anyways is the funniest part of this video
That was not a gel block, it was the chronograph 😢
They ain’t cheap they are hard to find chronographs
That poor chipper, I'm surprised it's lasted for long🤣🤣🤣
@@Technicksworkshop He ment at the end of the video
@@SilverSpider44 sorry, had to leave before the end of the video
Scott really has the funniest skits in his videos, the flashback to the chip o matic dying and him deciding to just throw the chronograph in had me DEAD 💀
Such a waste though :(
Different strokes for different folks, I guess.. I just don't find any of the bits funny.. maybe the very first time but he does the same joke or says the same thing in every video (like the Grey Poupon "poop on my.." joke etc.) but I still enjoy the videos.
@@hhaste I have to fast forward through them lol not my thing either but people seem to love them for the most part.
@@reboundrides8132
Gotta ask why are you here then dude, if theres a large part of a video section l don't like l don't bother with it at all.
@@hhaste
I have to ask you why bother then as its most of the video, if l didnt like the main part of a site l would just leave it alone m
My favorite combination of old western lever action with the heavy duty rounds that bring the "find out" id be looking for.
12:15 the perfectly positioned bullet casing by itself looks like the bottle flip challenge
additionally I would love to have that rifle both for use and as a curiosity since I personally love 2 weapons lever action rifles and crossbows with those two I am happy and Scott has already tried both except the "lancehead f1" crossbow which seems to me a good addition to channel
True
Hell yes. Let's see some more crossbow fun!
I was about to say 12:14 but i'm just glad that someone else got it aswell 😊
Scott: 'maybe i shouldn't throw the gel in...'
Also scott: 😁 'let's use the chronograph instead!'
🤣🤣🤣 love your videos scott
Edit: did anybody notice at 12:12 how the casing bounced off his arm and landed perfectly upright????
Ha! Yeah it did.
It's a trick shot
Helluva good spot that. thanks for the heads up it's awesome.
that casing landing upright took many minutes to perfect
I like how the first shell stood up 12:12 truly GOAT material 🎉 thank you Scott for making my evening 😊
I was wondering if anyone else caught that.
im so happy someone else seen that. i was waiting for the rest of the video for him to talk about it lol
Yes
I was about to comment on that and then I saw this!!!! 😂
Hey Scott, I heard about the meet and greet in Indianappolis. I could not make it I live in East Tennessee, and had to work maybe you could do a meet and greet in Nashville one day soon.
I love how the casing lands perfectly straight up on the ground lol at 12:13
omg that was too perfect. reminds me of when he flipped that 50 BMG. casing and it landed on its head
I also like that it doesn't get knowcked over on camera
The bottle flip challenge pales in comparison to this.
I was checking to see who was gonna comment this. Too perfect!
Eagle eye
7:00 I'll never forget when I was a kid going to the range with my Dad in the 90s and a guy came with his chrono and everybody wanted a chance to shoot through it. One guy had a Desert Eagle which is a pretty rare gun in Australia and the owner of the chrono just said don't shoot my chrono and the shooter proceeded to line up and nail the chrono right in the middle ending the fun pretty much instantly.
😂😂
Rip AU
Thank you for bringing back some of the back yard ballistics testing with a chronograph!
Well, that has come to an end after he tossed the thing in the wood chipper.
@@alphazuluz yeah, sadly….. I don’t understand why he did that though.
you saw the flash back it would have broke it
I love these videos of massive guns but one day I'd like to see Scott fire the .950 JDJ even if it's just one shot
I think Scott's reaction to that monster would be great
I heard the .950 JDJ has the potential to recoil a bit…
I'm pretty sure a .950JDJ would break Scott's shoulder as he'd most definitely try to shoulder fire it.
For perspective the 4Bore he shot recently had about 20,000 ftlbs of muzzle energy.
The .950JDJ sits at around 39,000ftlbs or nearly twice of the 4Bore.
Fun fact, his 4 bore rifle shoots a more powerful cartridge
Or a 20mm would be nice
That JDJ is the first gun I would be ready to call “stupid” hahah. Stupid cool that is!
8:20 i didnt expect he will actually throw it
8:41
I LOVE the slow motion shot for this, watching it just rocket off into space while discharging all the orbeez in slow motion was magical
13:00
"I GOT POUPON MY GIANT........... chiken"

Chicken
@@Psilomuscimol😊they spell it 'chiken' over there in Kentucky 😂
One thing about the Model 1886 action (which is what the Big Horn rifle is based on) is that you need to work it like you mean it. Especially with straight case cartridges.
Nice point.
@@thomo66 With any of the Browning designed lever guns with tube magazines (1886, 1892, 1894 and their derivatives) you have to operate the lever briskly to get the lifter to raise the case up to the chamber and close the lever briskly, especially with straight cases.
FYI, this doesn't apply as much to the Model 1895 which uses a box magazine and a spring powered lifter.
But in any lever gun, you are doing a lot of actions with the lever throw, extracting, ejecting, cocking the hammer, lifting another cartridge from the magazine in line with the chamber and then chamber and locking the action.
There is no need to operate them gently, they won't break.
This may also apply to Marlins. I collect Winchesters and have no experience with Marlins, but I suspect the same is true.
Well, it doesn't just slide open. You need to throw the action to build the momentum, and then it slides.
It doesn't take a lot. Just don't baby it.
@@thomo66 Thank you.
We shouldn't take our gun rights lightly. Here in the USA some politician or another constantly attacks our rights, but so far, we are not doing bad and in recent years our rights have been getting restored more than lost.
Only a few states seem determined to continue wasting their time and money, while most states have been restoring our rights.
The federal government has been pretty well shut down in their anti-gun efforts.
I was fortunate to have a father and grandfather that were gun collectors and I inherited their collections in addition to building my own. My grandfather was a collector of any guns designed by John Browning. So I inherited a large number of Winchester lever rifles Models 1886, 1892, 1894, 1895, 65, 54, 64, and 71. Plus a few handguns, Remington Model 8 and 81 semi-auto rifles and Browning A-5 shotguns.
My father was more "eclectic" in his gun tastes. He liked Colt handguns, though and I have several of those from him.
I'm a retired police officer, so I have been carrying a handgun every day for more than 50 years and accumulated a large collection of handguns. Most of them have been retired from daily carry for one reason or another and now I have three which make up my daily carry guns depending on the weather, my clothing and activity for the day.
I still have all the others, and shoot them occasionally, but rarely carry them. I don't like to sell or trade guns. (you never get what they're worth and always regret it) I just get new ones and the others will get handed down to my sons.
10:38 Furby: Our generations version of a tribble... but wayyyyyyy creepier
This gun is the most beautiful of 2023 so far! Actually makes me want to try and get one here in the UK. Lever actions are allowed here and that is such an awesome rifle!
Nice. It would certainly be a rare beast. I understand silencers are easily attainable in England? Silenced Black Thunder when?
@@handroids1981 I'm not 100% sure what the rules are with suppressors but they are encouraged. So yeah I'd love have one of these with a suppressor. I've seen Marlin 45/70 with a suppressor.
13:00 is the closest ive ever seen scott make an adult joke on his channel and he seriously had me there for a second
I have a permanently detached collarbone from a State Arms .50 bmg. I definitely agree that just because you can shoot something while standing or kneeling doesn't mean it won't be painful to shoot while prone. I also learned that the early muzzle devices on single shot .50 cals were just there for show. I definitely want a lever gun in 500 or 460 mag, just haven't decided yet. I have a break action in 500 mag with a 20 inch barrel, but I definitely want a lever gun.
It's comments like these make me realize that a 45-70 lever gun is big enough for me. Collar bones aren't indestructible, wrestling in 8th grade gym taught me that.
@Cheezlord The state arms 50 was one of the first 50 BMG rifles available to the public. They are notorious for having horrible recoil management, really no better than a bare muzzle. Rifles today actually have effective muzzle devices
@@thatoneguy454c gotta love modern technology.
Hey Scott, not sure if you are going to see this, but Noreen Firearms sells a semi-auto rifle in .408 Cheytac, the only company to ever do so. I know you love big-bore rifles, so I wanted to let you know.
scott you somehow always manage to find a way to keep things interesting, in a formula that could become dull quickly. every time i come yo your channel im thoroughly entertained and impressed, keep it up!
Man must have the WORST range cleanup out of all the popular firearm guys. Gotta give him props, you never see bits of exploded toilet or busted table laying around video to video.
That lever action .500 is insane, great vid as always Scott!
There really needs to be a award ceremony for best intros. KB got it in the bag.
Amen.
True
Demolition. Ranch begs to differ
Scott should look at a Nock Volley gun. A cluster of seven musket barrels set off by one charge
That be awesome, I know of a few replicas out there but have never seen footage of one actually being fired.
I'd love to see him shoot a 950 jdj but there were only like three made.
I'd love to see him try an Anzio 20mm, Scott is probably the only human alive who could shoulder fire one
. I hope to hear the phrase "The Fat Mac is live!" on this channel one day as well.
I want to see that and a punt shotgun.
I’m very impressed with the Big horn black thunder lever action rifle and Fishing Clash . I priced the 4 bore at $8k . It’s out of my reach . I will definitely price the one .
Just buy a new 1886 45-90 and save a lot of money
4700.00
Winchester 1895 45-90 made in Japan by Miroku with outstanding quality and first rate customer service is only $1100.
1- It's a more powerful rifle
2- It a stronger rifle that can handle the heaviest loads. Not that it's necessary
3- It's a higher quality rifle regardless of price
4- Did I mention the price? You can buy 4 of these for the same price with money leftover for brass, powder and or primers
5- who makes brass cases for this thing and ow much does it cost?
6-This is a rich mans gun which is fine. I wish I was rich. I still wouldn't this rifle even if I was rich

Enjoyed that one Scott, thank you. Was wondering what the 4 bore would do to various types of body armor. 😂
@Arboreal_Aspect Seeing a zombie torso being folded in half would probably be more Fun If there was a level 4 plate going with It 😂
"mom quit calling me, im about to shoot toilets, its a poopy day"
Props to your mom for having the patience to deal with such shitty situation
If you pause at 11:26 and go frame by frame, you can see one frame where the bullet is just entering the Furby's MOUTH, parting the beak as it slides in. Amazing shot!!
This is one of the sweetest shooters I think you've had on the channel.
Love the show 👍👏
I'd be really interested in seeing the speed difference between different rounds. Like armour pricing vs brass solid ect
Lever actions are my favorite, more lever action vids in the future please? 🙏🙏🙏
I've been waiting almost TWO YEARS for my Model 89 from BHA and this guy gets the next generation one almost immediately! Got damn!
You sir, are building a fun loving, creative, and wonderful culture that continues to affirm firearms as a blessing in the lives of all people. You are the channel I send my friends who are against guns to. And you know what? They absolutely love it. Thank You Scott and family for bringing so much value to us.
I like this channel to , I hope I can live up to him with my channel as well I hope to do a collaboration video with Scott
I need to see your friends holding and possibly shooting the 4 bore rifle. Love the videos keep them coming big bore king
i love a lever action, but, four and a half K for one might be out of a few peoples price range lol. cant imagine owning a bare rifle worth more than my first car lol. thanks for letting us live vicariously through you scott.
I have a 9 year old daughter who loves your videos! She’s going to have a blast with this one 😂
Hi Scott, thanks for making life happier by presenting such beautiful weapons. Greetings from your fan from the Dominican Republic 🇩🇴 I hope one day to meet you in person and God bless you always
Hey Scott, the watermelon scene was absolutely amazing the way they looked cinematic almost. One of my favorite slow motion montages yet I think..✌️
Scott's love for BIG Calibre rounds gives me much joy. I'm just about to kick off my application for my first long arm. It's going to be a lever action 357 magnum. Love the clips Kentucky Ballistics team. The slo mo explosions are awesome, watermelon time never gets old. Scott's hatred of Furbys kills me and the zombie busts are spectacular when one shotted into oblivion. Love the channel. Thank for all your efforts.
A rattler turned up the other day. My 🐍 broom is a Ruger lever in 44mag. It's been sitting untouched for a couple years. Well, throwing that lever produced a stoppage which I was able to clear with fingers but still, levers are serviceable until the snakes are shooting back. Beyond that, no es bueno.
7:11 Holy mother of hydrostatic shock, it doesn't matter where you got hit, you can kiss goodbye to that part of the body.
It's always a good day when scott posts a video, even when you had an absolutely terrible day, thanks for the content, keep it up!👍
That projectile out of the 16-inch barrel is around 3265 foot pounds of energy. That's pretty damn impressive, in my opinion.
Yeah, I'd say that could comfortably put anything on the continent down
Been looking at the model 90 in 460…
It's definitely an impressive amount of energy but Scott makes the recoil look like a bb gun lol
Yeah but we're getting more than 4200 foot pounds out of our 500 Bushwacker with a 7.5 inch barrel and a 10 inch barrel will put you over 5000 foot pounds. Impressive for a handgun cartridge out of a handgun.
@@paulshayter1113 Ah yes, the perfect carry gun for when Rhinoceros get rowdy in your area
Good looking gun and powerful. Serves a purpose and looks good doing it.
Huge respect for how he hits everything he shoots!!! Scott is a true marksman.
Being a cop will do that to ya’.
His laugh is his special power. It makes him heal his wounds faster than wolverine
@@alduinmenendez anyone would be decent at shooting if they spent all day at the range burning thru taxpayer money.
Uhh, the videos are not one-takes, so how many misses are we not seeing?
Although, I’m convinced that Scott is a great shooter and that he hits most of his targets.
@@knightwolf5006 I was not making a political statement with my comment but okay. He just was a cop in the past.
The gel block slow mo was the most insane reaction I've ever seen of that target. Really cool. Thanks for the epic WATERMELON 🍉 TIME! 😎
I absolutely love your scientifically advanced analysis of firearms makes me laugh after a hard day at work
That looks like a gun a person could take anywhere, and be protected!
Scott is so much fun. Thank god he fully recovered from his 'incident'.
I think I have a new favorite lever action! The ballistic head was the final stamp of awesome! Thanks for all you do.
5:12 that's bacause you didn't go with me northeast brazilian! me and my boyfri... my "friend" go there... and my "friend" couldn't stand inside the hotel room... i felt sick for about 4 days, i think was Rodonia or something
Man your videos are the best. I’m currently stationed in Korea and always look forward to a new video. Thanks for the entertainment!
Such a great calibre,neat looking lever too
That furbie shot was so dead centre
Awesome
This weapon is probably my favourite out of all the ones I've seen on the channel so far... looks proper Stealth, it packs a punch and it looks like a lot of fun to shoot.
The problem is Scott is such a big guy that he makes shooting these monster calibers look pleasant/fun. I can assure you, for us mere mortals, it's a different story.
The regular guns shoot like a 12 gauge magnum slug. With the muzzle break it shoots more like a 30 caliber hunting rifle.
I always wondered how some of the overpowered pistol cartridges would handle in a rifle format. I would never buy a .500mag. as a revolver just because of the recoil but in a rifle format recoil looks very manageable. Would be overkill for home defense but excellent for bear protection. Not to mention a hell of a lot of fun down at the range.
My when I see the stupid Skibidi toilet trend: 4:04
12:03 scott shoots and the bullet jacket bouces off his arm lands on ground perfectly quality content🗣️💯💯
I really dig the more surreal direction you've taken the show in Scott.
Scott, single handedly, keeping Furby in business
12:12 I love that shot while shooting on the ground where he ejects an empty casing and it lands standing up. I don't think he could have recreated that shot if he tried.
13:03 that is NOT a chicken, but rather a "word that we use for the man genitalia that starts with c and has 4 letters"
@USERNAME-MRSCOTTDESIELDS no
12:11 One of the best Kentucky Ballistics style reloads.
He stuck the landing
Hey Scott have you considered the larger lever action rifles, bigger than the .500 S&W ???
I hope everybody in the community is having a good one. It's nice to see fun content like this still going. 🤙🏽
same to you bro hope u have a great 1 2 lol
It’s always a great time when you watch Kentucky Ballistics you won’t be disappointed always great content 💯💯
I have a feeling that this particular video may blow up the internet today. It's that awesome. I love a nice lever action rifle. My personal favorite is the Marlin chambered in .444 Marlin.
A beastly cartridge for its time to be sure
The energy dump is just insane to see. You got me wanting one now for hunting dinosaurs
Great Episode......I would love if you would explain the historical relevance of the Lever Action. A lot of young folk don't understand the role it played in history!
Ian is your guy for this one.
Or levergun50 , Scott is a entertainer more than an educator
still stunned how well you took the whole sniper vs jugular accident. can't even tell it ever happened. same energy! that's wild
KB is the biggest beast on his range, got the biggest guns too.
12:12 Anyone else going to talk about how that first casing landed perfectly upright?
Dude, I love your videos! It's awesome to learn about the different firearms and ammo that you use! I love the slow-mo shots and can't wait for you to do more videos with the #SlowMoGuys
I never heard of this weapon! I love it! Also hunting and fishing games are cool because I can't either. All around a good video!
One of my pet peeves is video games where barrel length does not effect bullet velocity consistently.
I must come shoot with you my friend 😏
You know back in the days of Flanders the Dutch had a mallet called a Goedendag to smash the Armour of the knights, everytime they swung it they would say "GOEDENTAG!" in Dutch means "good day" so now everytime you crush a table with your mallet "Goedentag!"
12:19 Me when.... you know...
I'd love to see the 4 bore vs. some body armor, I really think that that thing could crack some steel
Scott has been growing his gun collection! He’s also got a lever gun!😀💪
Black Thunder 500 Magnum would make a perfect guide gun in Big Bear country.... Alaska!
How does the.500 mag compare to the.45-70; A. Ballistically B. Cost per round C. Felt recoil. Thanks for the video Scott, it was entertaining 😊
I dont think the 500 would have the range of the 45-70. Under 100 yards I'm willing to bet it has more knockdown but start to drop drastically after that. I'm willing to bet felt recoil would be similar.
Underwood 45-70 Government 325gr. Xtreme Hunter
2030fps
The 350gr 500mag in this video were going 2025fps so same speed, 8% more mass, 11% more diameter. I'd expect about the same at most weights but 45-70 tops out at 500gr while 500mag has factory 700gr. I think where the 500mag would really shine is out of a suppressed lever gun. You'd need to hand load but a subsonic 700gr slug has some interesting potential.
Oh, for b and c. Underwood prices for 500 are slightly more than their equivalent 45-70, about 5%, and felt recoil will be stouter by about the same amount as the momentum increases, all else being equal. Basic physics, as you go up bullet weights you'll generally get more felt recoil per J of KE
Donot forget Round Size, it looks like you might be able to carry one or two more .500Mag vs the .45-70.

Hey Mr. Scott, have you ever checked out the Winchester 1886 in any of these 45-70, 45-90, 45-100, 50-100, 50-110? Seeing how the 1886 Winchester was the most powerful lever gun made if not still. Also side note the 45-90 version can also load and shoot the 45-70.
You can check out Leverguns 50 for those calibers and they are just 💥to gel blocks.
