    Fun Fact: This is a One Bore. Bore/Gauge refers to the number of round balls you can make to fit the bore from one pound of lead. So a 12 gauge can get 12 fitted round balls from 1 lb. This is a One Bore as it takes a full pound of lead to make a round ball that fits the bore.

    Forcing the ceramic plate (or the majority of it, anyway) through the torso was impressive, to say the least... but now I'm wondering what would happen with steel. The ceramic was able to wrap around the ball after it shattered, making it smaller and better able to be pushed through. Steel would either have to bulge back into the body or make the torso explode as it was pushed backwards with mostly the same dimensions.... I would think.

      Speed and having something harder than the armor penetrates armor. I don't believe it has the speed and definitely does not have the harness to penetrate level 3 armor. However, joules come into play and I believe it will turn the plate into a spinner and make the torso look like it was carved out by a boat prop.

      @@stoops187 Spitzer type bullet's penetration isn't based on rotation. The rifling is there in order to stabilize the bullet in flight (objects rotating around the axis of their travel path stabilize). Taofledermaus has tested some slugs over the years which are self stabilizing without the need for rotation, those might be worth a try.
      However, with the damage already being as insane as it is, i dont think people will notice a big difference, at least not when shooting things like zombie torsos.

    The intro and similar ones Scott has done in the past make me wonder how many "I know a guy that'll do it for cheap" stories Scott has in real life. I can't say I'm surprised the body armor was not effective against the angry lead tangerines the Punt Gun shoots but it sure was fun to watch. The giant cloud of smoke released by each firing puts me in mind of Revolutionary War Era cannon fire. 1776 Bald Eagles per inch of RAW POWER. Amazing 🤯

      I was working on a casting for a minie ball round, the problem is going to be the scale, I was doing the math, and to get them under a 16oz projectile the pressure would literally blow the front out of the bullet,.. By my math it would take roughly 26oz of lead. I don't know the specs on fury, but that's almost twice the bullet weight.

    2 thoughts: firstly, what would it look from fired from a boat, and how far would the boat travel from the recoil? Second, have you thought about making a sabot load using the 4 gauge projectile? It would be like a huge accelerator round. Higher velocity and power.

    • @xxxm981
      @xxxm981 5 місяців тому +4

      This is a black powder gun. Sabot doesnt really work well because you just have a very low burn rate, no matter what grain size and load.
      Unlike smokeless nitro powder, which can vary quite a lot depending in grain and packing density.
