Welcome back to Ballistic High Speed.
If you were on the internet and like firearms back in July 2021, you probably saw this video.
This is what started our channel.
First video that Adam and I pretty much ever did together, which was we examined what muzzle exits look like at 100,000 frames per second.
Quality was a little low, but it took off millions of views overnight.
It was that success that started this YouTube channel.
Much better high speed camera technology.
This is the 7510 from Vision Research.
Thanks to them for sending this out.
Up to 1.75 million frames per second.
We're not going to go quite that high today, but this should give us a much more detailed look at what muzzle exits are to appreciate the dynamics and all of that beautiful stuff going on in that split second.
So we're going to start down at 22 in the pistols, and we've got 380, 45, we've got all sorts.
Then we got rifles, we got shotguns.
This is not every caliber ever known to man.
Someday maybe.
It's kind of a little bit of everything.
Less talking today, just enjoy the show.
Appreciate the beautiful dynamics of muzzle exits.
Alright, we're going to start off with a 22.
Pretty much everything we're shooting today is all just your standard target, full metal jacket.
Nothing crazy today.
We shoot some stuff on this channel and then there's that.
Alright, moving up a little bit, we're going into the 380.
Still climbing, this is the 9mm.
For all the 10mm fans out there, we actually have one.
Moving along, we've got ourselves a 45.
The first revolver of the day, we have a Judge which can shoot 410 or 45 long colt.
We have opted for 410.
Golly!
Well, it wouldn't be a pistol episode if you didn't end with the Smith & Wesson 500.
Oh my god!
We're moving on to .223 or .556.
This was actually sent to us by Leviathan Defense.
This is their Valhalla in a nice Nordic gold.
They have really nice rifles.
You can go check them out.
Alright, this is the 7.62x39 out of the Draco AK here, so I expect a lot of fireball.
Ready?
Since we did 7.62x39, naturally up next will be the 7.62x51, also known as a .308.
Well, we wanted to do a .30-06, so we brought out Grandpa's rifle, the M1 Garand.
And when you have an M1 and you love your audience, you do one of these.
It is awesome!
Alright, we're going to start the .45-70 suppressed and then we'll do an unsuppressed comparison.
This is going to be the .45-70 unsuppressed.
We have a 6.5 Creedmoor that has been suppressed.
Continuing on with the 6.5, we now have it unsuppressed.
Bumping it up a little bit, moving into the 8.6, which is just a creature of a round.
Introducing a little bit of speed to this episode, the .204 Ruger.
This is the .204 Ruger, but now it's suppressed.
Getting into the shotguns, we're going to start out with just some birdshot out of this 12 gauge.
We swapped over to a different shotgun here, but it's still a 12 gauge.
We're going to do buckshot, then rifled slugs, and then some spicy stuff.
To clarify, this is double-aught buck.
So we still have the 12 gauge, it's a 2.75 inch shell, but now it is a solid 1 ounce slug.
Finished off the shotguns, we have some Dragon's Breath.
We've done it before, but we've never done it at this frame rate.
Alright, Dragon's Breath coming through.
And it would not be an episode as a .50 BMG owner if we didn't use the .50 BMG.
The best looking muscle exit of the .50 BMG we've ever seen in 3, 2, 1.
Thanks for watching.
We tried to get a really wide selection of different calibers.
If you have some calibers in mind that you want to see, we might do a revisit again later on in the future.
Some of the more obscure calibers maybe.
We know we missed a few, but it takes a lot of time to assemble all these.
It does.
Thanks again to Vision Research sending out the 7510, beast of a camera.
If you want to see more footage that we filmed with this, check out our last two explosives episodes.
A lot of Detcord and C4 and shape charges and all sorts of cool stuff.
And as you can tell, the .50 is back in the Ransom International Forensic and Ballistic Testing Machine.
You will forever see it in this because we have an episode that we're getting ready to do here in about 2 days time.
We're waiting on a collaborator to get in town.
The .50 is going to be forever altered that day.
And it will no longer be considered safe to fire it ourselves.
Shoulder fire anyways.
We're going to leave it at that.
If you know, you know.
Exactly.
With there being that many different calibers, which is always really fun to look at the differences.
If you want to get your start in ballistics, you can head to sdi.edu.
We'll have a link in the comments below.
They have a course where you get into if you change this, what happens for its ballistics downrange because you changed that.
You can go study it.
Sdi.edu in the link below.
Thanks for watching.
See you in the next episode.
I don't have anything to throw.
We can't break anything.
We need all of this stuff.
Oh God.
Alright.
