@ 19:10 Honestly, that handled the impact WAY better than I thought it was going to. I was expecting to watch it just sheer through the roof and be a new part of the Flex.
Quite an important heads up Scott. I don't know about all safes, but I know that safe doors with fireproofing can & often do have asbestos in them... That white powdery stuff made me nervous when you were blowing it about. I think if it's 25+ years old, it's possible to contain it still.
Scott, you should have done the punt gun into the vault door with a slug. That would have been impressive to see. I bet the door would have been jiggling around like crazy.
I love how the 4 bore round, despite being very rounded and squat, very often performs extremely well against very tough object just out of sheer mass and velocity. It’s just moving so fast and is so heavy it just plows through enough stuff to do immense damage.
It's actually very slow for a rifle. That's all mass. Funny thing is everyone thinks stuff like the 223/5.56 is fast, but it's really not crazy. The 220 Swift can push 55 grain bullets 1000+ fps faster. It just kinda died out when guys figured out barrels were burning out in just a few thousand rounds, whereas you can get 5-10000 from a 223.

Yep. Did about 30 minutes of research on it. I couldn't even really find anything on the company that produced the safe. All I could find is a statement by a Irish certifying company for safes. "Where The Asbestos-Free Status Of Any Pre-2000 Safe Or Cabinet Cannot Be Established Or Is In Anyway Uncertain, It Must Be Presumed To Contain Asbestos." Apparently Asbestos was extremely widespread in fire-proof safe-construction untill it was forbidden. He should really get the material checked out.
No more than I'm concerned of the asbestos BRAKE dust that you inhale on a daily basis from driving on the freeways roadways and everywhere else? Or at a brake shop? Or if you change your own brakes?....
Yep definitely asbestos, and probably the high grade bad form of it too with all that dust it was kick up or it will be a asbestos and concrete mix which explains all the dust and is far less worse for you

Unfortunately, Scott, that isn't a Bank vault door. It's a document vault door. Bank vault doors have hardplate (think very thick, angry AR500) over ~70+% of the door front (and sometimes the door sides). Also, that is just a normal S&G 6700 or 8500 series door lock. Not very secure for a bank vault.
Yeah, was going to make the same comment. An actual vault door would be at least an inch thick and more likely an inch and a half and would laugh at any of those rounds. Would probably take a 20mm cannon round to penetrate, hey, now there's an idea for a video. A proper vault door against a 20mm machine cannon. Hell, I'd become a patreon to see that!

The 416 Rigby seems like the Goldilocks safari gun. Not nearly as heavy as some others, but often does the most damage. (I recall it was very effective against bowling balls)
For me the biggest surprise was the door not punching straight through the vehicle. But on reflection it’s just more proof of the adage that speed defeats armor, same as the smaller faster bullets punched through the door but the bigger slower ones didn’t. Fun as always Scott.
Projectile sectional density and hardness are big factors in penetration too. The 4 bore bullet is just lead which means the bullet spends much more energy in deforming the bullet than punching through the steel.
The slow motion footage of the 4 bore hitting the door is insane. It looks like water vibrating or something. That is so cool. Sorry to hear that you were sick. Hope you're doing better now.
Some vault doors have a security feature that uses a piece of glass inside the door. If the glass is broken, it permanently locks the vault door. This is to prevent thieves from drilling or trying to bypass or compromise the locking mechanisms. Some of the dust that you see coming out of the door might be powered glass, so I would be careful if there’s a next time to make sure that there isn’t a hidden danger.
You're right. It's called a Relocker. But this door only protects against fire, like it said on the plaque on the inside. There was none that said it protected against theft also. Such doors have to deserve such a plaque through a lot of testing, for insurance purposes. Probably you could open it with a couple of crowbars. I live in Europe and I know something about safes. I have one which weighs almost 5 metric tonnes. American safes are most of the time about how it looks. I think that's because Americans are allowed to own guns, and Europeans don't. Americans don't need good locks. They can simply shoot an intruder and get away with it.
Scott I’m always amazed by the .416 rigby (aka the honey badger) I think for your next video you need to do a thickness gauntlet test for the .416 rigby, just keep shooting thicker and thicker objects and/or materials to see what the rigby can and can’t go threw
The more I see the Rigby work I think you're going to need something very substantial to stop it. I think rolled steel from a submarine or the door of an MRAP would stop it or something similar. 🤔
The sensor is called a BBDT Ball Bearing Door Trip. The ring that was noted as a light is a housing for a heat sensor. Lefebure was an American manufacturing company out of Cedar Rapids. Was purchased by Mosler about 25 years ago. Both companies where over a hundred years old. No longer in business. The insulation in record safes is usually gypsum poured in as a slurry. I've been working on vaults for almost 40 years. It was fun watching this video.
After reading John Ross' "Unintended Consequences", I've always wanted a 4 bore. A Solothurn too, but let's be a bit realistic. Thanks for doing all the content with the 4 bore shoots, love every one.
Amazing as always Scott!! I believe the door is actually for a residential walk in vault. A bank vault door is much different and none of the rifles would have even deformed the main security panel. The main panel is going to be a 2" thick (or even thicker depending on the bank) hardened steel plate that's resistant to cutting tools and torching. Imagine 8 or more level III plates stacked up haha
Depends on the bank. Although I agree it does look like a commercial grade residential vault door, not all banks have the big vaults. Small town local banks "might" have something similar to that, simply due to budget constraints.
Having actually worked with bank vault doors, I can say, with 100% confidence, that this is not a true vault door. A bank vault door this size would weigh around 10000 lb!
2:32 Scott has amazing recoil control. Watch how he collapses his arm back in a straight line to relieve his wrist of absorbing most of the recoil. It's why it didn't fly out of Scott's hand, but it did with Eddie.
I was DEFINITELY waiting on the honey badger to make its presence known lol. Huge fan of the 416 Rigby that I only know of because of this channel. Thanks Scott
All the energy from the 4 Bore shot spread through the safe door. It looked like paper. Once again, all these powerful weapons were very impressive. Thanks Scott. Curiosity, fun and information guaranteed. Waiting for the next video.👏🏻🤜🏻🤛🏻🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷
Considering all the dust flying around on the slo-mo I really hope that safe door wasn't old enough to be filled with asbestos - whilst the risk of asbestosis is minimal as it requires long term exposure, there is a risk of mesothelioma from any exposure (although again the more exposure the bigger the risk) but you wouldn't know for up to 40 years post exposure!
LET'S GOOO 4M SUBS! You've certainly dealt with enough pain to deserve it, Scott. Can we please also have another Slo Mo Guys collab? They are such good episodes.
The 4 bore was my favorite. Scott, you're the only person that I've seen that can fire that rifle and walk away. I know there's no chance that I could handle that much recoil.👍
A trend I've noticed the proper huge hunting rifles is that they, by design I imagine, deliver a lot of stopping power, not penetrating power. They seem to be built more for "a wildebeest is charging at me right now and I would like it to stop dead in its tracks" as opposed to, "I would like to shoot through several inches of armour."
That's something I don't really understand. Past a certain point, couldn't you just have some 50BMG loads with some proper hunting projectiles like soft points/hollow points with ballistic tips or similar and have more than enough power and stopping power to drop any creature in the planet dead on the spot? As much as I absolutely admire those guns and as much as I wish to fire them some day, I don't see a practical and economical advantage over what I mentioned before, unless it's simply for fun or to see who can produce the most outrageously powerful shoulder fired artillery piece, in which case, yeah, I totally understand.
Most likely a salvage from a demolition. When a bank branch shuts down, the vaults are always left as part of the base building and becomes the problem of either the new tenants or the demo crew. I've built a lot of banks so I've worked with quite a few vault techs and learned a lot about vault and bank security technologies. That is an old vault door. Newer vault doors weight close to 6000 pounds for an average community bank. They use tungsten carbide for the reinforcement of the cementitious fire proof filler. There is also a glass pack that if broken, the door permanently locks. The door in this video is pretty old and most likely has cement / asbestos filler inside. It's one thing to shoot through that door but it's another thing to cut through those bars in that door and there is no way an average human is squeezing in between them to get in.
Add to that all the asbestos fibres now in your lungs from the dust, you might get away with the bank robbery but the door will have its own revenge years down the line with that lovely mesothelioma
Honestly I'm most impressed by how well that car stood up to the drops. I mean, if you were in the front passenger seat you might have survived having a bank vault dropped on you TWICE. I expected that it would smoosh the entire car but that car was tough enough to bounce the door off. That's some pretty impressive modern engineering!
Thanks for the video! Looks like the 375 and 416 got the job done without the extra punishment of the larger cartridges. It’s all about bullet design and sectional density. Also, at the end, that’s a great selling point for that SUV. It looks like it would’ve protected the occupants quite well in case of a terrible accident. I mean, the top hardly even caved in at all.
pretty sure there was some beefy mechanism inside the door at various places that let some slugs through and stopped others, depending on their impact location.
All vehicles have their rollover protection built into the pillars. There's layers of sheet metal bracing all across the roof tying the pillars together so they don't buckle in a rollover.
Agreed. When it comes to penetrating armor: small, pointy, fast moving bullets trump overall power and bore diameter. 5.7x28mm is pretty anemic compared to .44 magnum; but, it slides through armor that the .44 cannot.
That's a strong room door, used for slowing people down or in this case used as a firebreak which is more of a lightweight construction design to stop fire for X amount of time. The white powder is most likely diorite, diatomaceous earth or something similar. If you want something relatively solid in a small building which a concrete room, you use a strong room door. These sorts of fire doors if they were used in a bank would be behind the big vault door preventing a fire from spreading inside the protected area.
I love how Scott is still a mad lad and did not let his accident deter him of enjoying his passion and bringing us these wonderful videos. That said he'd make a terrible bank robber. 😄
I honestly think you should have a 2 Bore rifle commissioned and built! Not only would it satisfy your masochistic need for recoil, but being the only one of its kind, it would probably be a great investment.....would go nice in the KB museum eventually as well lol
416 Rigby never disappoints! If you want the energy of a freight train impacting on a very small area, and don't care what's behind for two or three post codes, then the 416 Rigby is the right tool for the job. The only question that ever only remains is: what on earth would you need THAT for?!?
200lbs of recoil? CRAP! The only gun that would make the person shot actually fly backwards like Hollywood like to make EVERYONE else do. Even with 9mm. Just Amazing!! Thanks Scott.
@10:29 the Nitro rifle became a flamethrower. Maybe if we go to 4.0 subscribers Scott will graduate to flamethrowers and artillery? I've done my part, subscribed.
Keep in mind making it through the door is not the same as energy transfer. So the 4 Bore round probably had more energy transfer into the door than the Rigby round which made it through the door. As for the 'smoke' that's something akin to asbestos, but hopefully not as long term dangerous.
The table ending antics are great. Have always loved it. This new thing with the crane for endings though, so next level Kentucky Ballistics. Well done as always, Scott. Just fabulous. Any chance we’ll see the punt gun versus this bank door????
I suspect bullet construction made a huge difference in whether a caliber penetrated the door, or not. The 375 H&H, 577 Trex and 416 Rigby all appeared to use solids which are specifically intended to penetrate as deeply as possible, with minimal expansion. Most of the other calibers appeared to be using controlled expansion or solid lead (4-bore) bullets which don't penetrate nearly as well. All that aside...very entertaining video as always!
19:30 The roof obviously didn't fare well, but I'm thoroughly impressed with that suspension. Forget the pickup truck adds they have of heavy stuff being dropped in the bed, Ford should really just contract Scott to do absurd things to their vehicles. Then see if they still move lol.
5:44 "You can see some like white stuff in there and I think that may be like some sort of fireproof material." Given the apparent age of this thing, who wants to bet that it's asbestos?
9.3x62 mm would be neat to see how it compares against other African rifles. Awesome videos! As always praying for safety out on the range and God keeps his hand of protection over you.
Considering that the vault door's fire insulating lining is likely to be a bunch of asbestos, you might wanna reconsider walking through that dust cloud to check out the rear of the door after you've shot it. You can't put a thumb in cancer after all, scott.
Man, that 700 nitro fireball was even reflected in the metal of the door. That's awesome! And it's not a Kentucky Ballistics video without something being wrecked at the end. 😁
Wow Kentucky, you never stop surprising me with your content, and honestly some of the tests you have conducted in the past have had outcomes that have surprised and surpassed my expectations, and this is no exception! Keep up the great work and thank you for your weekly uploads! Fav Safari Rifle: 4 BORE!
Dear KentuckyBallistics, I absolutely love your content and I am very glad to see you doing well and still blasting big bores with all your heart. Curiosity is making me wonder if we'll see the vault door again ,and the potential of it one day having a shot in it from every caliber. Mainly I'd love to see it hit with 10 vs 8 gauge slugs, 357 vs 44 man, 50 beowlf vs 458 socom, 338 lapau vs 50 bmg, 300 vs 458 win mag, and finally the thing that drove me crazy and screamed at the screen over. The 700 bmg!!!!?? Like that wasn't a fever dream right that thing could blast a hole in about anything, would love to see the dent it leaves compared to the 4 bore. And last thought punt gun??? Love the content and stay safe
With the 700 NE you can see the flash reflection on the door in the slowmo! Awesome!!! ❤ The ripple effect on the door with the 4 Bore....Epic!!! Great video as always Scott!!! 👍👍👍 I would have like to see the first one again just to see if it was a one off. 🤷 Watch out the white dust may be asbestos. Don't be breathing it without some kind of face diaper.
That fuzzy white stuff inside the safe might be asbestos, older safes quite often used it as a fire retardant, you should definitely check up on that and don't mess around with it if it is. shooting and making pulverized asbestos airborne is not such a good idea. (also don't stick your finger in it, whatever flame retardant it is, most are mineral fibers and are quite the health hazard, regardless of if they're asbestos or not.)

I was almost disappointed that the 416 wasn’t in the lineup until you brought it out. That rifle is truly the ultimate honey badger. Well done, sir.
same, that cartridge is insane.
Finally, a video where a table isn't maliciously abused. TABLES LIVES MATTER.
For me the biggest surprise was the door not punching straight through the vehicle.
But on reflection it’s just more proof of the adage that speed defeats armor, same as the smaller faster bullets punched through the door but the bigger slower ones didn’t.
Fun as always Scott.
That and the SUV is built to withstand rollovers at 60mph. They use VERY high grade steel in those supports around the passengers.
With these, it's also the bullet material putting in the work.
Projectile sectional density and hardness are big factors in penetration too. The 4 bore bullet is just lead which means the bullet spends much more energy in deforming the bullet than punching through the steel.

My first thought after seeing the fire rating tag.
The slow motion footage of the 4 bore hitting the door is insane. It looks like water vibrating or something. That is so cool. Sorry to hear that you were sick. Hope you're doing better now.
13:11 DUDE this door just ripples like WATER when hit with the 4-bore round!!!!!
Some vault doors have a security feature that uses a piece of glass inside the door. If the glass is broken, it permanently locks the vault door. This is to prevent thieves from drilling or trying to bypass or compromise the locking mechanisms. Some of the dust that you see coming out of the door might be powered glass, so I would be careful if there’s a next time to make sure that there isn’t a hidden danger.
fireinsulation from pre 2000 ish = probably asbestos... sooooo wouldn worry to much about that glas
@@korpilombolo1 I didn’t think about that. I wasn’t aware asbestos was used in safes
Exactly-@@korpilombolo1
You're right.
It's called a Relocker.
But this door only protects against fire, like it said on the plaque on the inside.
There was none that said it protected against theft also.
Such doors have to deserve such a plaque through a lot of testing,
for insurance purposes.
Probably you could open it with a couple of crowbars.
I live in Europe and I know something about safes.
I have one which weighs almost 5 metric tonnes.
American safes are most of the time about how it looks.
I think that's because Americans are allowed to own guns, and Europeans don't.
Americans don't need good locks.
They can simply shoot an intruder and get away with it.
I watched cartoons too.
Scott I’m always amazed by the .416 rigby (aka the honey badger) I think for your next video you need to do a thickness gauntlet test for the .416 rigby, just keep shooting thicker and thicker objects and/or materials to see what the rigby can and can’t go threw
He should bring out the pine boards for that too.
gonna need a LOT of pine @@DrEpicPhD
The more I see the Rigby work I think you're going to need something very substantial to stop it. I think rolled steel from a submarine or the door of an MRAP would stop it or something similar. 🤔
completely agree. Diameter isn't everything. The .416 rigby is clearly the highest penetration of all his safari guns
Man, Scott thanks for letting us live vicariously through you, your out there living every man’s childhood dreams keep it up.
The sensor is called a BBDT Ball Bearing Door Trip. The ring that was noted as a light is a housing for a heat sensor. Lefebure was an American manufacturing company out of Cedar Rapids. Was purchased by Mosler about 25 years ago. Both companies where over a hundred years old. No longer in business. The insulation in record safes is usually gypsum poured in as a slurry. I've been working on vaults for almost 40 years. It was fun watching this video.
After reading John Ross' "Unintended Consequences", I've always wanted a 4 bore. A Solothurn too, but let's be a bit realistic. Thanks for doing all the content with the 4 bore shoots, love every one.
First, I would be happy for all that Bowman's property so I could train every day with ordinary guns 😇
Amazing as always Scott!!
I believe the door is actually for a residential walk in vault. A bank vault door is much different and none of the rifles would have even deformed the main security panel. The main panel is going to be a 2" thick (or even thicker depending on the bank) hardened steel plate that's resistant to cutting tools and torching. Imagine 8 or more level III plates stacked up haha
Depends on the bank. Although I agree it does look like a commercial grade residential vault door, not all banks have the big vaults. Small town local banks "might" have something similar to that, simply due to budget constraints.
everybodys a vault master now
And I remember the old full auto Friday episode of busting into a Walmart safe. Easy. A real one would be an interesting comparison
Having actually worked with bank vault doors, I can say, with 100% confidence, that this is not a true vault door. A bank vault door this size would weigh around 10000 lb!
@@petethompson721
Not really, just the internet to research the information provided in the video.
2:32 Scott has amazing recoil control. Watch how he collapses his arm back in a straight line to relieve his wrist of absorbing most of the recoil. It's why it didn't fly out of Scott's hand, but it did with Eddie.
I was DEFINITELY waiting on the honey badger to make its presence known lol. Huge fan of the 416 Rigby that I only know of because of this channel. Thanks Scott
All the energy from the 4 Bore shot spread through the safe door. It looked like paper. Once again, all these powerful weapons were very impressive. Thanks Scott. Curiosity, fun and information guaranteed. Waiting for the next video.👏🏻🤜🏻🤛🏻🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷
The things Scott does for us man. Legend.
The ripple from some shots made the metal look like water for a second. Super cool.
The 4 bore was by far the coolest! The amount of kinetic energy transferred into the door was nuts, I loved the waving steel!
If Scott is going to do what I think he's going to for 4 million subscribers, I sure hope The Slow Mo Guys are involved.
Both the vault door and the vehicle roof were surprisingly robust!
Considering all the dust flying around on the slo-mo I really hope that safe door wasn't old enough to be filled with asbestos - whilst the risk of asbestosis is minimal as it requires long term exposure, there is a risk of mesothelioma from any exposure (although again the more exposure the bigger the risk) but you wouldn't know for up to 40 years post exposure!
He will be old and already dying in 40 years
I did a Ctrl + F for "asbestos" partway through watching the video.
Gotta give some respect to that Ford!. It crumpled but didn't collapse. That's pretty damn strong and well engineered.
LET'S GOOO 4M SUBS! You've certainly dealt with enough pain to deserve it, Scott. Can we please also have another Slo Mo Guys collab? They are such good episodes.
just dont blow it up
The 4 bore was my favorite. Scott, you're the only person that I've seen that can fire that rifle and walk away. I know there's no chance that I could handle that much recoil.👍
A trend I've noticed the proper huge hunting rifles is that they, by design I imagine, deliver a lot of stopping power, not penetrating power. They seem to be built more for "a wildebeest is charging at me right now and I would like it to stop dead in its tracks" as opposed to, "I would like to shoot through several inches of armour."
That's something I don't really understand. Past a certain point, couldn't you just have some 50BMG loads with some proper hunting projectiles like soft points/hollow points with ballistic tips or similar and have more than enough power and stopping power to drop any creature in the planet dead on the spot? As much as I absolutely admire those guns and as much as I wish to fire them some day, I don't see a practical and economical advantage over what I mentioned before, unless it's simply for fun or to see who can produce the most outrageously powerful shoulder fired artillery piece, in which case, yeah, I totally understand.
Dude! The slow motion ripples in the door when he shot it with the four bore were seriously cool!
Scott's laughter is always hilarious 😂
Even when he feels sick ...
So contagious 😜
@@It-b-BlairYou'll be fine....just put a thumb in it
Most likely a salvage from a demolition. When a bank branch shuts down, the vaults are always left as part of the base building and becomes the problem of either the new tenants or the demo crew. I've built a lot of banks so I've worked with quite a few vault techs and learned a lot about vault and bank security technologies. That is an old vault door.
Newer vault doors weight close to 6000 pounds for an average community bank. They use tungsten carbide for the reinforcement of the cementitious fire proof filler. There is also a glass pack that if broken, the door permanently locks. The door in this video is pretty old and most likely has cement / asbestos filler inside. It's one thing to shoot through that door but it's another thing to cut through those bars in that door and there is no way an average human is squeezing in between them to get in.
Probably more of a fire safe than a security safe.
Mmmmm..... Asbestos....
Add to that all the asbestos fibres now in your lungs from the dust, you might get away with the bank robbery but the door will have its own revenge years down the line with that lovely mesothelioma
The ripples on the door, beautiful!
I think the 4 bore has a special place on your shoulder 😉
That 1st pistol reminds of the Hunting Revolver from New Vegas that shoots 45-70govt. rounds in game.
Yup
The Hunting Revolver is actually based on a real gun: the Magnum Research Big Frame Revolver (BFR). Fun fact: It can chamber .45-70.
13:48 that’s what she said 😂😂 another great video 🎉🎉
Honestly I'm most impressed by how well that car stood up to the drops.
I mean, if you were in the front passenger seat you might have survived having a bank vault dropped on you TWICE. I expected that it would smoosh the entire car but that car was tough enough to bounce the door off. That's some pretty impressive modern engineering!
Modern car safety is absolutely incredible
Same here. Tbh the suspension is the mvp here.
That cackle during the second door drop is pure joy. Love it.
The arm staying on being picked up, but falling off mid sentence like that was almost catroonishly hilarious. 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Thanks for the video! Looks like the 375 and 416 got the job done without the extra punishment of the larger cartridges. It’s all about bullet design and sectional density. Also, at the end, that’s a great selling point for that SUV. It looks like it would’ve protected the occupants quite well in case of a terrible accident. I mean, the top hardly even caved in at all.
pretty sure there was some beefy mechanism inside the door at various places
that let some slugs through and stopped others, depending on their impact location.
All vehicles have their rollover protection built into the pillars. There's layers of sheet metal bracing all across the roof tying the pillars together so they don't buckle in a rollover.
Agreed. When it comes to penetrating armor: small, pointy, fast moving bullets trump overall power and bore diameter. 5.7x28mm is pretty anemic compared to .44 magnum; but, it slides through armor that the .44 cannot.
The socks also rebounded very well
You read my mind. When you got to the 4 bore, I thought, "How can you not shoot it with the honey badger!" You never disappoint. Great video!
That's a strong room door, used for slowing people down or in this case used as a firebreak which is more of a lightweight construction design to stop fire for X amount of time.
The white powder is most likely diorite, diatomaceous earth or something similar.
If you want something relatively solid in a small building which a concrete room, you use a strong room door.
These sorts of fire doors if they were used in a bank would be behind the big vault door preventing a fire from spreading inside the protected area.
A BANK VAULT!? This man has the power of 100 men!
I love how Scott is still a mad lad and did not let his accident deter him of enjoying his passion and bringing us these wonderful videos.
That said he'd make a terrible bank robber. 😄
@anthroimperzia3927 Me and Papa haj? Please. We only eat the souls of bigots. You are not a bigot I assume?
@@Hamokkif you were tryna eat my soul i’d just run up a flight of stairs LMAO
I honestly think you should have a 2 Bore rifle commissioned and built! Not only would it satisfy your masochistic need for recoil, but being the only one of its kind, it would probably be a great investment.....would go nice in the KB museum eventually as well lol
2-bore rifles exist, but the ammunition has to be handmade. Not sure you how to justify a $20,000 gun that costs $100+ to pull the trigger.
big kaboom
@CoconutMigrating alot of the safari guns are 5 figure guns with 100$ trigger pulls
@@CoconutMigratingThat's exactly what the .700 nitro is..$100 a shot.
The 4 bore's recoil would be like shooting five 12 gauge slugs at the same time.
For the door clearing 12 gauge shot I literally went "Oh I don't think it wil... huh nevermind." as soon as I saw the dent made by it.
416 Rigby never disappoints! If you want the energy of a freight train impacting on a very small area, and don't care what's behind for two or three post codes, then the 416 Rigby is the right tool for the job. The only question that ever only remains is: what on earth would you need THAT for?!?
Safari hunts if you want to hunt a honey badger!!
Need never even enters the equation, only the smile.
200lbs of recoil? CRAP! The only gun that would make the person shot actually fly backwards like Hollywood like to make EVERYONE else do. Even with 9mm.
Just Amazing!!
Thanks Scott.
I'm always impressed by the 416!
But I'm kind of impressed by how well the car stood up too.
4 bore: I’m the worlds biggest gun 😊
Schwerer gustav: hold my beer
I will never stop enjoying your videos. You, donut, Matt and Brandon will always have a special place in my heart
Let's not forget that FPSRUSSIA opened the door for these guys to succeed.
Wow. What low standards.
Don't forget garand thumb lol
From start to finish these videos are so much fun to watch! I agree that the crane was stellar investment. Thanks you, Scott!
14:16 That was definitely a personal attack on you by the cyborg predator and its been a long time coming.
@10:29 the Nitro rifle became a flamethrower. Maybe if we go to 4.0 subscribers Scott will graduate to flamethrowers and artillery? I've done my part, subscribed.
Keep in mind making it through the door is not the same as energy transfer. So the 4 Bore round probably had more energy transfer into the door than the Rigby round which made it through the door. As for the 'smoke' that's something akin to asbestos, but hopefully not as long term dangerous.
The table ending antics are great. Have always loved it. This new thing with the crane for endings though, so next level Kentucky Ballistics. Well done as always, Scott. Just fabulous. Any chance we’ll see the punt gun versus this bank door????
The slow-motion is amazing on your channel Scott
I suspect bullet construction made a huge difference in whether a caliber penetrated the door, or not. The 375 H&H, 577 Trex and 416 Rigby all appeared to use solids which are specifically intended to penetrate as deeply as possible, with minimal expansion. Most of the other calibers appeared to be using controlled expansion or solid lead (4-bore) bullets which don't penetrate nearly as well. All that aside...very entertaining video as always!
19:30 The roof obviously didn't fare well, but I'm thoroughly impressed with that suspension. Forget the pickup truck adds they have of heavy stuff being dropped in the bed, Ford should really just contract Scott to do absurd things to their vehicles. Then see if they still move lol.
5:44 "You can see some like white stuff in there and I think that may be like some sort of fireproof material."
Given the apparent age of this thing, who wants to bet that it's asbestos?
That was my thought. I hope it's not.
definition of living your best life. the way you was laughing as your lifting that safe on the crane was priceless.
9.3x62 mm would be neat to see how it compares against other African rifles.
Awesome videos!
As always praying for safety out on the range and God keeps his hand of protection over you.
Considering that the vault door's fire insulating lining is likely to be a bunch of asbestos, you might wanna reconsider walking through that dust cloud to check out the rear of the door after you've shot it.
You can't put a thumb in cancer after all, scott.
LeFebure isn't a brand known for using asbestos in their safes. And not during the time period this door was manufactured.
What are the chances the white fireproofing stuff contains asbestos?
My first thought when I saw him put his finger to his nose.
most definitely asbestos. afaik LeFEBURE was a pre 90s brand before asbestos was banned.
I did think the same. Guess the manufacturers never thought someone would shoot it with a variety of safari rifles....
@kentuckyballistics Don't breathe the dust!
Good call! Be careful!
That double barrel is B-E-A-utiful...
The shock wave in the door with the 4 bore is amazing!
Man, that 700 nitro fireball was even reflected in the metal of the door. That's awesome!
And it's not a Kentucky Ballistics video without something being wrecked at the end. 😁
Wow Kentucky, you never stop surprising me with your content, and honestly some of the tests you have conducted in the past have had outcomes that have surprised and surpassed my expectations, and this is no exception! Keep up the great work and thank you for your weekly uploads!
Fav Safari Rifle: 4 BORE!
Dear KentuckyBallistics, I absolutely love your content and I am very glad to see you doing well and still blasting big bores with all your heart. Curiosity is making me wonder if we'll see the vault door again ,and the potential of it one day having a shot in it from every caliber. Mainly I'd love to see it hit with 10 vs 8 gauge slugs, 357 vs 44 man, 50 beowlf vs 458 socom, 338 lapau vs 50 bmg, 300 vs 458 win mag, and finally the thing that drove me crazy and screamed at the screen over. The 700 bmg!!!!?? Like that wasn't a fever dream right that thing could blast a hole in about anything, would love to see the dent it leaves compared to the 4 bore. And last thought punt gun???
Love the content and stay safe
Love you KentuckyBallistics from Bosnia🇧🇦🇧🇦🇧🇦🇧🇦🇧🇦
Beatyful Mostar 😀👍
It's so amazing how big that gun is. That can easily take down a dinosaur. That pop sound was satisfying when it popped out the shot gun🍷🗿
Taktikal Trex conspicuously absent
Like a garand but more American
Minus the glass of wine and the tiki face.
What kind of Dino? 😈
@@towerofresonance4877 I added it because the satisfaction sound off the gun.
I like the part when vin diesel came in and said” fish and chips? Nah… this is family” bone chilling moment
Love seeing a guy who really enjoys his 'work'
Hey Scott great stuff, me and the guys are just worried that the white fireproofing stuff may be asbestos? Please be safe!
This man's dedication to destruction is sublime
Its so crazy how much this channel has grown!! So happy for you man, and as always love the content!!
I love how this video just goes to show the difference between damage and penetrative power
With the 700 NE you can see the flash reflection on the door in the slowmo! Awesome!!! ❤
The ripple effect on the door with the 4 Bore....Epic!!!
Great video as always Scott!!! 👍👍👍
I would have like to see the first one again just to see if it was a one off. 🤷
Watch out the white dust may be asbestos. Don't be breathing it without some kind of face diaper.
That fuzzy white stuff inside the safe might be asbestos, older safes quite often used it as a fire retardant, you should definitely check up on that and don't mess around with it if it is.
shooting and making pulverized asbestos airborne is not such a good idea. (also don't stick your finger in it, whatever flame retardant it is, most are mineral fibers and are quite the health hazard, regardless of if they're asbestos or not.)
