    My brothers did a similar "test" in the mid 1960's with 22 shells and a vise. Story was oldest brother had a sore on his face and told Dad he fell on the gravel. It festered and Dad extracted part of the brass 22 case from Bill's cheek. It seems Bill and Ralph were pulling bullets from 22 shells because they ran out of pellets for the pellet gun. Bill said he tightened the vise a little too much and the shell blew up. My brothers set a let of precedents I couldn't live up to. RIP Bill, you lived to 67 years old.

    I remember when Mythbusters covered this, more often than not the casing was more dangerous than the bullet since it had more mass on average.
    Possibly has something to do with the shape of the casing acting almost like a nozzle, becoming a mini rocket engine.
    And man, that little doodad you were using to set them off was really flying along with the larger casings.

  • @Terra-Quattuor
    @Terra-Quattuor ปีที่แล้ว +56

    This made me want to learn more on why different rounds have different burn rates for their powder, and why they require their barrels in order to burn properly. Likely something simple, but still fascinating after watching two 700 Nitros practically squib.

    • @Fyreye
      @Fyreye ปีที่แล้ว +13

      burn rate is probably tied to barrel length, pistol powders can't take ages to burn so they dump all the gas at the beginning creating a huge pressure spike and rifle can take a while to build, but if the gas stops expanding while the round is in the chamber the friction would probably slow it down.
      Mark Serbu did a great breakdown of powder burn rates in one of his videos on Scott's RN-50 accident

    • @tbjtbj4786
      @tbjtbj4786 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      You have to have something to hold pressure to build pressure.
      Thats what you are really doing with a gun is building pressure to send the bullet out of the barrel.
      I am not a reloader so I haven't studied burn rates much.
      But the different rates do effect the pressure and the pressure curve.

    • @Chris_FMS_Redfield
      @Chris_FMS_Redfield ปีที่แล้ว

      To get high velocities in rifles it's much safer and more consistent to use slower burning powder that has the same average pressure curve over time (barrel length) as a fast burning powder that spikes really high at first.

    • @hf117j
      @hf117j ปีที่แล้ว

      The others explained it well. So say you have a soda bottle right? When it's closed (bullet still in the barrel) it still builds pressure. The bottle is hard. But when the cap is off (bullet has exited the barrel) the bottle becomes squishy because there's nothing to keep the pressure anymore.
      Say the bottle is taller with everything else being the same. Less likely to overflow (complete powder burn) or shorter, more likely to overflow (incomplete powder burn). Powder burn makes the gas so in this case the soda is the powder and the barrel length is how tall the bottle is. You want as much soda as you can fit without overflowing it (trying to match powder burn to barrel length).
      Also since it has to be lit by the rest of the powder, once it's clear of the barrel it isn't likely to burn and isn't useful for propelling the bullet. Since pistols have short barrels they can't really have powder that burns slow or a lot will be wasted. But if you have powder that burns fast it doesn't get thrown out of the barrel

    • @DH-xw6jp
      @DH-xw6jp ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Barrel lenght and bullet weight, mostly.
      Short barrels (like the ones common on pistols) need a powder that burns really fast or you end up just wasting all that potential energy as muzzle blast and unburnt powder out the muzzle, but this causes very fast pressure spikes (comparative to the same quantity of slower powder).
      Heavier bullets are harder to get moving fast (inertia) so a longer barrel gives you more distance to work it up to speed, but that requires a slower powder to ensure that you don't prematurely burn all the powder before you reach the end of the barrel (which can squib the round) or cause an initial pressure spike before the bullet gets moving (which causes a "stick a thumb in it" situation).
      Lots of science, but it boils down to "whats the best way to move it?"
      If you only have 1 foot to move an orange, a quick short punch may be the best way.
      But of you have 3 foot to move a bowling ball, a slower moving push will get you better results with less chance of injury than a punch (dont punch bowling balls please).

    Hi Scott! Loving blessings to you and your family for this year! Don’t worry, next year there will be blessings also!
    I would also like to take this opportunity to thank your father for being your camera man so diligently and it seems Scott was given your strength. I haven’t forgotten of course, it must not have been easy to go through what the both of you that day at the range went through. I guess Our Father in Heaven wasn’t ready yet to receive Scot as he still has so many hearts to conquer here via this channel! I love you guys! Keep up the fun work.
    By the way Scott, has anyone told you that at the moment you are to pull the trigger, you look exactly like your father…. When you take your power stance for example.
    Till we meet! Yes, when He returns of course.
    👍

    The Slowmo guys did something like this recently, by using a tiny rim fire fire bullet to set off the firing pin of a 9mm. It didn't go anywhere. The bullet popped, and it just sort of rolled away.
    No pressure in a barrel, no distance I guess.

I've seen people drop ammo before or even toss a whole box on a table and told them don't do that please it could go off.

    Happy new year Scott! Just a suggestion, have you ever thought about making a video to show how different gun powders perform? Something along the lines of what would happen if you loaded a .338 Lapua with shotgun powder. Not sure how you would do it without destroying guns, but it would make for an interesting video. Just a suggestion. As always, keep up the awesome videos.

    I tried something similar in my early/pre teens, but with a slightly more primitive setup, and very different outcome. My friends and I found some 7mm and 9mm shells in a small community trash dump (yes, we played in the dump.) We put the 7mm shells in a hole in the bottom of an upside down grille and hit the primer. They must have been duds, because it was a very anti-climactic report (primer only?) Well, not knowing the reality, we assumed the rounds needed to be in a gun to go boom. I soon sound out this was not the case when I tied the 9mm rounds. I stuck the bullet in a hole that fit perfectly so the casing was sticking out. I used an old file for a firing pin and random chunk of cast iron as a hammer. The result was pretty violent, and a piece of the casing must have severed something in my wrist, because it was spurting blood as we made the arduous journey back home (wasn't bad enough to get my thumb in it, but certainly warranted a death grip around my wrist), all the while trying to come up with a story to explain to my mom why my wrist was squirting and my jacket sleeves were bloody up to the elbows.

    Interesting results. Apparently, the powder is the main factor in determining what happens to these rounds if they go off outside of a firearm, etc.. It was surprising to see the video of the 9mm round that went off at the range from an expelled shell casing. But, it seems like common sense to keep your box of ammo closed when shooting in the general area of the box of ammo.

  • @bloodyirishman5758
    @bloodyirishman5758 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    Curious what safety concerns you factored in by launching the various bullets directly into the air and determining it was safe to do so. As the old saying goes "what goes up, must come down..." and with the 1000 grain bullet being over 1/8th of a pound (1/8=.12 lbs while 1000 grains=.14 lbs) thats a lot of lead coming down who knows how far away.

      Back in 2004, Mythbusters did an episode where they used a .22LR as a fuse, and managed to get it to fire. The bullet ended up on the table next to the fuse block. Since then, a number of people have fired bare cartridges and determined that the bullet has very little velocity. (Basically, it has a near zero length "barrel".) I'd be surprised if that 1000gr bullet made it 10 feet high. I'd be more worried about the shrapnel from the brass.
      But you do have a point. Scott should have a proper shelter for when he does these, um, dangerous experiments. Hiding behind his truck, his legs are exposed. A "bus shelter" type structure, made out of 3/4" plywood, should do the trick.
