WHO_TEE_WHO do how many watermelons test with 338 lapua magnum vs 50 bmg and also just like milk jugs Line the up and see which goes farther that’s my idea for future vids who tee who .
The plates for the .50 were braced better. A lot of the .338s energy was absorbed by moving the stack. You might have gotten a hundred more if the stack hadn't moved so much.
@A D Even so - the stack used for the 338 was loose enough for a lot of kinetic energy, and thus penetration, to be dissipated by the springiness of the stack.
Cool video mate. That 338 deformation is frightening to think what it would do to a person. I also have a 338 but it’s a SAKO TRG 42. Far and away my favourite rifle. Cheers from Australia 👍🏻
I guess what it comes down to is, do you want the deer to die a quick death with the 338 magnum or do you want to blow the deer in half with the 50 )) I guess either way there's meat in the freezer !
Buddy just a personal request. Since the Barrett 50 BMG is the official Tennessee gun. Whenever you get to shoot that gun again toast us up by having an RC cola and a moon pie. God bless you for them fun videos I love so much. Much appreciated man thank you!
That wasn't ant surprise to me....I wouldn't have thought in my wildest of imagination the 338 Lapua would have went thru. more paper plates than a 50. BMG....Now I would like to see the 338 Lapua Vs. 338 Win. Mag.
I had my 12 gauge out today, shooting slugs, and buckshot. I've got a red strawberry on my shoulder(no shirt on). LOL I know it doesn't compare to these 2 bohemians, but I too enjoy shooting powerful firearms. Man... I gotta buy me a big bore rifle. I'm thinking about saving up for a .50 Beowulf AR, or maybe just an upper for mine. I need a DRT bear cartridge. Brenneke slugs will probably do just fine, but I want MORE!!!! lol Great video, my friend.
Thanks adam. Id be curious to see these two again, but against ceramic tiles. Id imagine the 50 would still be the victor, but i wonder how they would stack up against each other.
As a comparison, I would think it would be interesting to tape the entire stack of paper plates tightly together. I understand you are doing it to break it up into more manageable chunks to make it easier to find the bullets and count the plates, but I think you are losing a ton of ballistic energy at the junctions. I'd bet a shiny nickel that if they were all taped tightly together, you would get markedly different results. Just a suggestion :-) Love the videos! Keep up the good work! (and FYI, I have the IDENTICAL set up to your 338 and you are right, it is AWESOME!)
You need to redue the 50 with taped paper plates as well or you can reshoot the 338 without any tape on plates it keeps them too much together and acts like armor
Thanks for these great videos WTW! Been watchin' em for a while, but for some reason wasn't subbed til now! Keep it up! The comparisons are especially awesome. :)
You should make a chart on poster board of the plates penetrated and list bullet type, caliber and weight. It would be remarkably interesting to see them all so easily compared in one place at the same time! 👍😉
WHOTEE, as a loyal, subscribed fan, if it helps in counting, a typical modern scale can measure a sheet of paper accurately. Thank you for the entertainment you provide, especially since it involves ballistics
There was a video where the 300 blackout out penetrated the 338 lapua in 1" pine boards...totally funny! The tiny 300 blackout went through all the boards, but the high velocity 338 lapua only went part way...
WTW have you ever shot a 5 gal. bucket of soaked oats or rice? It is a riot. We have done it with 7mm Mag & 12 gauge slug when we were young & silly. I shot a bucket of used donought grease with an old Mauser. Nasty mess. But crazy.
Some of the 50 bmg fmj are steel core which against soft targets are the same as Armor piercing as the core doesn't deform and will go much further. Wish they made .338 lapua Armor Piercing :-)))
I would trust the .338 Lapua in most Operator scenario's, and most certainly the BMG in any scenario. Especially in long range competition's. That .338 Lapua round reminds of the 2 ounce slug the Seismic makes. The recovery of that is amazing too. Cool video WTW as always and informative.👍🔫
I would of liked to see how many more plates the 338 would of went through if it had a steel core too. You should try and do a part 2 to the test and shoot the 50 at the paper plates with an all lead core round?
I think that the bullet would have gone through more plates if it hadn’t been able to push the stack back. Maybe an unmovable back stop would help. The stack for the BMG didn’t move, allowing the bullet to penetrate more plates.
Did the tape around the plates cause the energy to be absorbed in a different way than free standing plates? And I would agree that the rounds were not comparable, steel core vs lead. But it was cool none the less!
Either way you slice it out. Both of those high powered rifles rocked the plate stack. I'd say that both rounds are bad Jamma lammas. That huge chunk of lead! Wow!
I noticed you used full metal jackets for both rounds, lets compare the 7mm Rem. Mag. with a full metal jacket and see which one is better the 7mm or the 338 mag. I have a feeling the 7mm will come out on top. Thanks!
i think you shou should re try the 338 but under same conditions.put a solid back stop & don't tape the plates together so tight see what happens. might not be different but at least it's uncontested..
Makes me wonder if it's physically possible for a person to hold and fire a 50bmg, what's the limit we can get to caliber wise via inventing/engineering ie recoil reduction, weight, portability and so on. To me we are barely scratching the surface of what's possible with firearms. Like I always say, those who say it can't be done are the ones who never will.
OK so I'm trying to save some money up for a 338 lapua. And I found a cheap savage 110 ba stealth. And then a regular savage 110. Which one should I get?
@@WHOTEEWHO I see . I might go with the stealth because it's cheaper. I just wasn't sure because in the photos I looked at the place were the but of the stock connected to the grip looked really thin. But after watching the video I reliesd it's not as thin ad I thought. So hmm I don't completely know let. Either way it's a beautiful gun, I guess I will have to wait and see.
I will say that either one of those calibers will definitely get the job done . And I definitely have know doubts , in whatever you may be shooting at as in game , like in big big game , gee it's going down fast , and your probably not going to have very much meat from the 50 BMG . And the 338 Lapua , I will say you might be able to bring home most of that game. Yeah that was a sweet video 👍 😊 I really enjoyed it. Yeah , thanks for the links , I sure do want to sport around a shirt . See ya next time brother , and thank you again.
It'd be neat to compare paper plates to styrofoam plates and shoot a stack of each with the same round, see if one is better at stopping bullets than the other. Also we need more of tannerite in a dryer type vids😉
Alright! So you have answered the question for the first video idea I had I just hadn't got this far down on your RUclips page yet! I think I still would like to know if you had a small budget and you could only have one all purpose rifle that would put food on your table, be good for self defense, and the ammo doesn't break the bank what would it be besides the 22 lr? Thinking about things that would happen on a ranch or any decent amount of property. I know you love the 450 bushmaster and the 4570 but I'm sure those rounds have to be on the expensive side! I think boxes of 3030 are still around 15 or 16 bucks. It would just be cool to know what you think with your experience even if you don't make a video about it.
@@WHOTEEWHO ok cool! I'm sorry if I'm being a bother because I really dont mean to be! Thanks for the info! One last thing for the moment though! Do you have a 10 gauge or access to one? Some 10 gauge videos would really be cool and I know there are a lot of paper plates and milk jugs just waiting to be vaporized! Have a good rest of your night!
Not sure if you've done this or if you even shoot bows. It would be interesting to see practice arrows vs broad heads. Just an idea. Good videos by the way. Love your channel
Obviously projectile design is huge. Having the mushroomed lead of the Lapua is great for doing damage but not so much for paper plate penetration. The steel core indestructible projectile of the 50 BMG would certainly penetrate buku paper plates and the frangible exterior contribute to destruction. Long-range hit on a soft target, the Lapua wins every time. With a harder target, the 50 BMG is obviously King. Have a great day Whoots!
Can you do some meat tests? that would be cool but its kinda a paul harrel thing but it would still be cool just buy like a pork butt or something they're pretty cheap-I do live in Iowa though so its probably a lot cheaper here because we grow all the pigs here lol
I have looked at getting some meat before. Was really expensive. I do have a video shooting a 450 bushmaster at a cow tongue though. Link here ruclips.net/video/IaVypCwWS9E/видео.html
Had you used Monolithic bullets in the .338 LM ammo, it would have gone farther. It looks like you used a standard Cup, and Core Jacketed Bullet. Try this again, with some solid copper Bullets, and see what a difference they will make. Barne's, and Lehigh Defense make them, as components, and loaded ammo. The 50BMG will have a Steel Core, even if it's not A.P. So the Jacket will peel off, but the core will continue.
I have both 338 and 50. The 338 is a savage 110ba. Man that thing has sweet trigger. My 50 is the bushmaster ba. The 338 is no match for the 50bmg but it is nothing to sneeze at.
The .50 had a solid steel core and had its jacket removed while the .338 was pure lead and much softer which led to much less penetratrion so it wasn't a fair test
OF COURSE the steel core bullet will penetrate much further than the soft lead bullet. As stated in other comments, the plates were not equally braced and stabilized. This was not a very good comparison. A solid .338 copper match bullet would have been a much better comparison, if the plates were also equally stabilized.
When shooting the lapua brace the plates so the plates don't take the energy and fall off the table ! The 50 had a brace in the front and the back Lock the plates in like you did for the 50 i think you could go through approx 1,300 plates Thank you
I don`t know what dry ice costs but ill recommend it to anyone and everyone to shoot it at least once and see how amazing it looks, it explodes into a big ball of white vapour, the bigger the block you have the bigger the gun should be

WHO_TEE_WHO do how many watermelons test with 338 lapua magnum vs 50 bmg and also just like milk jugs Line the up and see which goes farther that’s my idea for future vids who tee who .
WHO_TEE_WHO also but at least 5 to 10 water melons 🍉
Hey try the Socom M1A 16
Not trying to be whatever, but the reason why the 338 didn't penetrated has many is because you used FMJ compared to the steel core from the 50
How fps .50 bmg,???
To be fair the 50bmg is an anti-material round, the 338 is designed for soft targets, it was never meant to punch through armour.
The plates for the .50 were braced better. A lot of the .338s energy was absorbed by moving the stack. You might have gotten a hundred more if the stack hadn't moved so much.
Books?
Came to the comment section to post just that :)
@A D Even so - the stack used for the 338 was loose enough for a lot of kinetic energy, and thus penetration, to be dissipated by the springiness of the stack.
Also the 50 was a steel core while the 338 was lead
Cool testing as who knew the .50 BMG would double up on distance in the paper plates....Good stuff.....
hard to beat the 50!
.338 Lapua vs Barrett 416? Now THAT would be a really fun video!
Cool video mate. That 338 deformation is frightening to think what it would do to a person. I also have a 338 but it’s a SAKO TRG 42. Far and away my favourite rifle. Cheers from Australia 👍🏻
4:40 That, "Wow!" gets me every time. He sounds like Wario 😂
😆😆😆
Great video !good comparison, I love that beautiful 338 you have there, awesome!
I've never seen a rifle recoil like that 338 Lapua and not only that the energy it seemed to release in those paper plates was crazy!👍
Love the 338
Anytime you can bring out the big guns to play is a good day👍👍
Better than cable tv, thanks WTW!!!
thanks 6.5!
Great video as always. I love watching the energy transfer into the stack of paper plates.
Thanks for watching Dallas!
I knew this was gonna be a really fun video.
Love these tests, thanks
So this is pretty much a test to see how much wood they can penetrate, only it is a lot easier to retrieve the slug.
Yup!
That 338 is no joke. A heck of a round.
I guess what it comes down to is, do you want the deer to die a quick death with the 338 magnum or do you want to blow the deer in half with the 50 )) I guess either way there's meat in the freezer !
How does the 338 and the 50 B M G compare as far as recoil and muzzle blast gos
Buddy just a personal request. Since the Barrett 50 BMG is the official Tennessee gun. Whenever you get to shoot that gun again toast us up by having an RC cola and a moon pie. God bless you for them fun videos I love so much. Much appreciated man thank you!
You should compare .38 special with .22 lr
good idea
Do you have a video of the 338 win mag versus the 338 lupula magnum?
Looking forward to getting my 338 lapua magnum soon. It ain't cheap I'm getting a ruger precision rifle. But you can definitely spend way more.
That wasn't ant surprise to me....I wouldn't have thought in my wildest of imagination the 338 Lapua would have went thru. more paper plates than a 50. BMG....Now I would like to see the 338 Lapua Vs. 338 Win. Mag.
👍👍
Morn brother glad to see another paper plate video. I seen the 50 BMG video
That was AWESOME! They both too expensive for me! Thanks for another great video Brother! Stay Safe and GOD Bless!🙏🇺🇸
Both too expensive for me too!
It's been a while since the last paper plate video! Great video!
Thanks for watching Hilda!!!
Hey love the videos I watch every one you make but since the 50 bmg has a steel core it might be a better comparison to shoot a solid copper 338 round
Or the Fort Scott Munitions .338 Lapua 250gr solid brass TUI round.
you get more trutful score if the bullets would be same, like both soft or both hard.
And both need to have a solid backstop.
RE-Test 😎
It's been awhile since I have seen your videos. They're still awesome.
Thanks Daniel! Tons of new vids out!

Plates were supported better for the 50bmg. Most of the energy was lost when the plates pushed back for the 338 lapua

was your 338 steal core like the .50 cal? if not it is not a fair comparison! I saw a pine board test and they were almost equal in penetration.
Thanks for these great videos WTW! Been watchin' em for a while, but for some reason wasn't subbed til now!

do you think the 338 lapua plates had a backstop as the 50bmg the 338 would have gone a little further?

Thanks for watching Peter!
I love your channel man!
Thanks for watching!!!
338 should have been a steel military round. The expanding round shed lots of energy pushing a larger frontal area.
great video. I would like to see you shoot 6.5 Creedmoor and 308 through the paper plates.
I would trust the .338 Lapua in most Operator scenario's, and most certainly the BMG in any scenario. Especially in long range competition's. That .338 Lapua round reminds of the 2 ounce slug the Seismic makes. The recovery of that is amazing too. Cool video WTW as always and informative.👍🔫

I own a weatherby 338 -378. Don't confuse it with the 30-378.

I never thought the .338 Lapua Magnum would look like a small cartridge. I guess .50bmg will have that effect!

How many was the 300 win mag, 270win vs 338 ????
You should of shot the .50 bmg right then because the plates looked a little different and they were placed different.
I have the same type of savage 110 ba stealth. What type of 338 lapua ammo do you shoot? What type did you use hunting in Montana?
For target cheapest I can find. I got my deer in Montana with hornady precision hunter

But expanding dose more internal damage.

FN 5.7x28 and 22 Mag. And if ya knowing anyone who has a 22 hornet throw that into the test.
I have both 338 and 50. The 338 is a savage 110ba. Man that thing has sweet trigger. My 50 is the bushmaster ba. The 338 is no match for the 50bmg but it is nothing to sneeze at.

👍👍
The .50 had a solid steel core and had its jacket removed while the .338 was pure lead and much softer which led to much less penetratrion so it wasn't a fair test
That's why you thought the 50 BMG looked smaller and it was from the copper jacket being torn off
They make a 338 lm ap round , maybe put that up against same 50 steel core ?
Sounds very expensive 🤣
OF COURSE the steel core bullet will penetrate much further than the soft lead bullet. As stated in other comments, the plates were not equally braced and stabilized. This was not a very good comparison. A solid .338 copper match bullet would have been a much better comparison, if the plates were also equally stabilized.
When shooting the lapua brace the plates so the plates don't take the energy and fall off the table !
The 50 had a brace in the front and the back
Lock the plates in like you did for the 50 i think you could go through approx 1,300 plates
Thank you
The expansion stopped the .338 short, but yeah the giant would win, my reloading budget would appreciate the .338 though...🤷🏾♂️
I don`t know what dry ice costs but ill recommend it to anyone and everyone to shoot it at least once and see how amazing it looks, it explodes into a big ball of white vapour, the bigger the block you have the bigger the gun should be
👍👍
