One thing that could make a difference is angle of attack. 0° is worst cast, but if the plate is set at an angle that increased the material the bullet must pass through. Strapping it down also ensures more energy is imparted into it, vs allowing it to freestand :D
Edwin Sarkissian went from making video shooting his Titanium at an extremely tilted angle with no back support. He got lot of negative comments saying it's an invalid test. And then he shot it at 90 degree angle with no back support and almost killed himself many times. THEN he ended up shooting it at point blank using concrete wall as back support for the Titanium to be secure while firing it behind cover.. But THEN he STILL got hateful comments saying it's an invalid test. So he ended up putting steel I-beams against the concrete wall so his Titanium is secure AND have space behind the Titanium for the bullets to have chance to come out.
After watching a lot of test videos, it seems like no armor is going to stop armor piercing rounds above 30-06 especially those with high velocities. Bottom line is I doubt there are many 338s that you would have to worry about in a situation where most of us would need armor like in a riot situation near our homes for normal 556 and 7.62. Great test nonetheless!
We see all the time what a bullet does to a plain body. Could you show us what happens if armor fails and a bullet passes through? Will the shrapnel make a larger wound? Will the damage be minimised?
Anecdotal. West Germany used to issue a flectarn pattern level 2 flak vest. Urban legend is it made wounds worse as the previous comment surmised. Soldiers didn't want it after the word got out how much worse combat injuries were. Sorry I don't have an authoritative source to back up the legend.
For the sake of experimental consistency, you have to have both plates supported in the exact same way in the exact same position. Having another plate behind the first plate invalidates the results of the tests on the second plate.
As far as I know, surface of the ceramic layer is hard enough to mushroom the bullet at that high speed, or at least the front of it. Then the power of the bullet is distributed to larger area as if it was pointy - that means less penetration. After that the steel layer has no problem stopping it. What about the crater in the case of non AP bullet, it is bigger due to ricochet of the shredded soft lead and jacket taking away all the corrupted ceramic material. The hard AP bullet core just get stuck into it and there is realy not much of it deflected away. This is just how I got it :)
I think it was iraqvet that stacked two rma1155s one in front of the other, and the first one was already compromised. He shot it with an AP 50G, and the second one stopped it. Truly the king
The ball round disintegrated on the lvl 4 ceramic and the spalling is what tore a bigger hole in the plate. The tungsten core round did not disintegrate which is why the hole is smaller. Ball ammo is not typically a open tip round, its a full metal jacket wrapped around a lead core.
Guys, I work with body armor engineers every day. They said that after the second shot, the armor was compromised due to the large vertical/horizontal lines produced by the 1st Ap round. If he would have hit closer to the area you designated for the 2nd AP round, 8/10 it would have taken it. All in all The armor did its job and if the shots were placed differently it probably would have stopped another one. It’s over a 200 layers of compressed Kevlar, and Lexan plexi based fibers tucked on the inside. Plus the lightweight resin is applied before it’s put in a massive press and cured. The then ceramic front is applied to the composite plate. This is straight from the horses mouth.
Doubletap Ammo makes an extremely powerful 338 lapua loading its 300 grains at 3000 FPS. Far more powerful than typical over the counter 338. Not saying it’s going to go through but the backface might still get you from it.
U.S. Troops with body armor in the Middle East were getting thrown on their backs with 7.62 x 39. I'm sure the 338 Lapua will do the same thing, except they won't get back up!
My Savage model 16 was slick as shit. Soon as I seen the trigger and how crisp and clean that pull was. I wondered if it was a Savage. And sure enough on the second shot Justin cleared that up. Savage makes such a great rifle!
you messed up the test by adding extra density with the metal behind the rma......the metal helped catch some of the force like a catchers mitt...just saying.seriously
I think the ceramic was able to absorb the energy better than the steel. And is the grain the same in both rounds? Slower speeds create a bigger blowout (If I remember correctly). Definitely surprising. Loved it as always man! As always can't wait for the next one!
Video suggestion. I've been told that a man would be killed by the shock of the 338 Lapua Magnum hitting a body plate, if it did not penetrate. Now, I'm curious, I do realize the math and the physics involved. However, the 4,900 lb-ft of muzzle energy with the bullet is matched by an equal and opposite reaction at the shooter's shoulder, too. OK. So, I'm thinking some energy is absorbed in the butt pad, and maybe even half the energy is absorbed by the suppressor, and the shoulder and upper torso are kicked back a lot, absorbing energy, but the contact area on the shoulder may be only 10 square inches. So, a shoulder should get destroyed. But it doesn't. On the other end of things, the rigid plate has 130 square inches, and if the bullet doesn't penetrate or deform the plate, my casual offhand "mental" calculations make me doubt that the guts behind would be "liquified". It doesn't liquefy gel. So. hang a plate on a wild boar, because hogs are supposed to be anatomically similar to humans. Then afterward either do an autopsy or put a blue ribbon on him.
putting the steel plate behind it you made the armor actually 2 as thick and a lot stiffer. for accurate results you would need to strap it to ballistic dummy. with the steel backing the ceramic does not flex, and the round is smashed. without backing...it would blow through
The plate should be resting on a clay block so to measure back face deformation. Would bet the results would be different, that ar500 renforced the other plate
Well its already been done go look up buffman range he has done it with the 308 caliber AP bullet loaded into 300 win mag and also 300 rum and he has some with 338 lupa and he uses the rma plates and others I wont spoil what happens for u just go watch it gor yourself u will be surprised
that AR500 stuff is so damned tough ... esp a half inch. As badass as a 338 L is ... yes, even 4500 lb-ft ... it's IMPRESSIVE. I know that 14.5mm Lathi round wasn't quite full power ... but that thing is massive and it couldn't penetrate the 1" of AR500 or maybe AR550 to further make the point of how impressive this AP round was. And that ceramic plate..?? It's really hard to say what's more impressive. Great ... GREAT test guys.
I would love to see you guys get your hands on a Lee-Enfield .303 British to add some more variety to the video's. No one really uses it on youtube unfortunately.
A true tungsten would be ever so slightly magnetic, tungsten carbide is magnetic and steel of course is magnetic, I would check a M-855A1 round for it's level of magnetism and act accordingly with sopposed AP rounds
You should try 8mm Mauser SMKH (NOT to confuse with 8mm Mauser SMK) as I havent seen any plate stop this ww2 round but its very hard to get your hands on them. The germans developed the round to penetrate armored vehicles.
Chris, it's hard to imagine wifi connection could actually go up to 2 miles. A lot of drone manufacturers allow people to fly their drone up to 2 miles (or more). It isn't thru wifi connection anymore though.
i have wireless internet, beamed wireless, my provider needs line of sight to all its customers within 20 miles. not sat, not cellphone, actual wireless.
It would be...at about one eighth of the range! I don't know what the BC of the AP round is, nor the bullet weight... but I am pretty sure it's less than the 338 Winchester Magnum energy at 25 yards given that the Winchester round is only just over 150 fps slower than the Lapua at the muzzle! Too bad that they don't test it at 25 yards, 0 degrees... like Buffman does... especially given how hard they are to get!
I'd like to see you guys do some videos with the new M855A1 5.56 they're really hard to come by but they penetrate better than the old green tips. I don't know just a suggestion thank you guys
I heared of the Albert Arms ALR 338. it's a semiauto .338 LM this is nuts, wouldn't even matter if the Bad guys wearing RMA 1155/89 bodyarmor, they would get fuggt tho

А лошадиное говно на заднем плане уже становится классикой канала! :) Картина - Джастин на минном поле! :)
Damn you guys are cool! Nice job! I think Buffman Matt liked these RMA plates too. Can't wait too see longer ranges. If you can and RMA gives you more you shall do a .50BMG test too with Ball vs AP from 500 yards or 1000yards if it is possible for Justin to hit from that distance accurately. Not that it would have any real life benefit,because even if it stops you probably die from the energy transfer but for fun. Only issue is that in case it stops the ball round it might copromise the a lot of the ceramic plate but hopefully the tile design let's you hit it one from each.
I don't think you'd be running any marathons after taking a hit like that, but you'd be alive. That ceramic armor is pretty darn impressive even if you'd feel like a turtle wearing enough to cover your torso front and back effectively.
From what I read it’s that the AP round holds it’s shape better which is what makes it an AP round due to its core being a stronger metal where as standard FMJ is copper covered in lead
So, should we fight adversaries with level 4 body armor, there is no practical way to kill them? How many consecutive fire from 308 AP is required to penetrated body armor?
Just out of curiosity. What is the energy transfer through the plate to the sternum and what a thoracic surgeon has to say. Maybe plate stops round but, energy transfer turns lungs into soup.
I'd bet my house if the level 4 was on a ballistic dummy, not a hard plate of steel, it would zip right through it. The steel plate acted as a second barrier the bullet couldn't press into once it had depleted most of its energy
As is the case with all videos testing body armor, a true test is one round per plate. Non metal armor is compromised with each successive shot. But, that kind of testing requires some serious coin. Additionally, unless you're LE or military who needs armor? Good Vid!
its almost as if ya have to pepper it with a lil hollow point to weaken that 1st ceramic layer and then come in with the 993 or the 995 or 338 win mag or 338 lapua, but whos got time for that.

The ball round can deform more and dumps more energy, the ap round maintains it's shape more and doesn't do as much expansion damage
Ah so the ball ones are for breaking everything under the armor while the pointy ones are for going through it ?

The RMA 1155 does not use a tile array strike face. It's monolithic. :D

@@GoingBallistic What is the name of the plate and where did you buy it from?
There is no way the new 6.8 spear is just supposed to burn through level 4 😂
Perhaps with a few consecutive rounds as the plate loses integrity. Ceramic is pretty difficult to defeat at first try.
Ye they tried the 6.8 in a recent video and it tool two shots in the exact spot to go through😂
it is not meant to, its meant to disable a soldier by shock
I think it was iraqvet that stacked two rma1155s one in front of the other, and the first one was already compromised. He shot it with an AP 50G, and the second one stopped it.
Truly the king
The new 6.8 will be armor piercing most likely. With a hardened steel core it will have a good chance at beating most armors.
The ball round disintegrated on the lvl 4 ceramic and the spalling is what tore a bigger hole in the plate. The tungsten core round did not disintegrate which is why the hole is smaller. Ball ammo is not typically a open tip round, its a full metal jacket wrapped around a lead core.

Nice shooting Justin 👍
Also, that body armor..wow!
HOT DAMN. That King of Armor plate really took that 338ap!?!?!
Ordered some lvl 4 RMA about a week ago, really neat to see this video!
RMA is great stuff, top tier. AR500 on the other hand... pass pass pass
Without reading other comments i would say the AP round core held together vs the ball round shattering and creating a mini explosion kind of effect.
The side profile was a cool thing to see on the plate- that is something I have not seen alot of content creators do
Salut a vous je suis ta chaîne depuis la France j'adore ce que tu fais le ic sais la traduction pourrais tu le mettre avec un traducteur français
Shew that’s amazing the ceramic stopping that .338 AP. I personally own and trust RMA.
Doubletap Ammo makes an extremely powerful 338 lapua loading its 300 grains at 3000 FPS. Far more powerful than typical over the counter 338. Not saying it’s going to go through but the backface might still get you from it.
What kind of chamber pressure?
Thanks for another great video!! I always enjoy the body armor torture tests!
Even if the BA stops the round, it will knock you off your feet, break bones and take your breath away. That's a lot of energy at 200 yards.
kinda think it's going to turn ya insides to jello
U.S. Troops with body armor in the Middle East were getting thrown on their backs with 7.62 x 39. I'm sure the 338 Lapua will do the same thing, except they won't get back up!

Aahh. 338 lapua. By far my favorite calibre. Love the content as always 👍
Thank you!
I love my 338. Feeding it gets expensive. Even hand loads are expensive.
Another fun test. That camera setup is super sweet! I’m sure it’s not cheap… the poop out in the field adds nice ambiance :)
About $900

Ceramic absorbs, Kevlar catches and steel deflects Bullets.
Amazing shooting! Justin is a true marksman.
30-06 AP will usually make light work of those AR 500 plates, so I already knew what the Lapua was gonna do, lol.
level 3 AR500 plates are rated up to .308 rounds.
Ceramic plate Level 4 is rated to stop .30cal AP rounds.

Try that same trick without the plate in the back. Bet different results
I feel the same way.
Most of the armor tested suck because they don’t do them right. One guy on UA-cam does it the right way. He comments on this channel sometimes.
The plate should be resting on a clay block so to measure back face deformation. Would bet the results would be different, that ar500 renforced the other plate
Джастин в опасности. Лежит посреди минного поля)))
Justin is in danger. Lying in the middle of a minefield)))

I don't know what the barrel length on that gun is, but perhaps a longer barrel would have given it more velocity?
Damn fine shooting Justin
Awesome video to start out my Friday morning 😎👍
Rock on!
Just amazed. I need to get some 338 AP.
I'd be really interested to see what a 30 cal AP round would do from a long action ultra mag like 300 RUM or 30-338 WBY
Adding another plate in the back strengthens the first medium, and makes it less likely for a bullet to pass the first armor.
Well its already been done go look up buffman range he has done it with the 308 caliber AP bullet loaded into 300 win mag and also 300 rum and he has some with 338 lupa and he uses the rma plates and others I wont spoil what happens for u just go watch it gor yourself u will be surprised
the hollowpoint mushrooms and expands pushing material out the AP just punches that tiny hole because it doesn't it just dumps the core into it
Awesome video. Beautiful backyard :O
Thank you very much!
RMA is good shit for a reason. Live to fight for another round. Hurting but you alive lol.
What’s up going ballistic, hi from NE Scotland 🏴
What's up Scotland Hope you are doing good.

Correct me if i am wrong, but ceramic armor will only withstand one hit, and then it becomes compromised and will not stop further rounds.
The ceramic can take multiple hits but not in the same spot. Or is that what you meant?

So, should we fight adversaries with level 4 body armor, there is no practical way to kill them? How many consecutive fire from 308 AP is required to penetrated body armor?
Who said you need to aim at the torso?
Boy that .338 LP is one bad 2 the bone party popper 🤙🏻
Nice vid guys. I'm not interested in much then armor penetration. & Justin check out notch cap, terra/aviator cut
It would be nice to speed difference between normal round and ap round.
Yeah we should have pulled out the chrono. Next time for sure

Ah 338 Lapua Magnum. Possibly my favorite caliber after the 22LR.
If that was worn by a person. Would the spalling have hit the lower face. Chin area?
6:16 Justin are you laying beside a monstrous pile of dump LOL I just seen that funny love your guyses videos new subscriber
I watched a vid of an old kar98 with armor piercing surplus ammo going right through ar500 I want to see it against that ceramic plate I’m curious.
Is that a pile of road apples behind your shooters platform? Some serious shit!🤣
Another awesome video thank you very much you guys are so awesome ☺️
Our pleasure!
Justin, are you a sniper? How did you learn how to shoot like that?
I don't understand how the ball round did not go through the steel. Even 5.56mm M193 ball will go through level 3 steel armor.
Is he shooting right next to some dooki
Good background for Justin:)
