  • On this episode of Ultimate Barrier Testing, we compare the performance of 5.56 NATO to 300 Blackout using 10.5 inch short barrels on 4 different targets. Each target is worth 25 points, for a grand total of 100 points (Plus a bonus round). Whichever cartridge ends up with the highest score will be the winner. Testing was setup at 25 yards. Thanks for watching!

    I think the main reason the velocity loss is similar is that you're comparing one of the heaviest .223 to one of the lightest 300blk. Heavier rounds tend to lose less in shorter barrels on account of the higher dwell time and lower powder charge.

  • @rickoshea8138
    @rickoshea8138 8 часов назад +1

    Compare energy loss, not velocity:
    Expansion volume matters (or more exactly expansion ratio) So, a larger caliber is able to extract more energy from a short barrel than a smaller caliber, running similar case volume at similar peak pressure.

    I'm choosing the 5.56. In a SHTF scenario I need a short barreled secondary gun, and I'd prefer it to shoot the same bullet as my primary, to prevent accidentally putting the wrong mag in the wrong gun. 5.56 overall would be a far better choice for me.

  • @PotatoeJoe69
    @PotatoeJoe69 5 часов назад

    Banana! A test of 5.56x45 vs .25-45 sharps would be awesome! I know you probably don't have an AR chambered in it, but the one and only thing you need is the barrel. Takes the same mags, buffer, BCG as a regular 5.56 AR.
    I would love to see the difference in performance.

    The 5.56 is better than the 300BLK with a barrel that long and at that range. The 300BLK shines if you are comparing them with a 7"-9" barrel at 100-200 yds. The 5.56 is probably better in any barrel length at 50 yds and under.

    If you're going to neuter your velocity by having a short barrel, might as well have a bigger bullet. 5.56 gets all its potency from speed - you take that away, you render it pointless.

      That's why you get the Sig .277 with a 13" barrel like i did...velocities are still crazy high for an sbr.
      Saying an sbr is pointless because you're losing 100's of feet per second is a stretch. A 5.56 or .300 would kill from a 8 inch barrel.
