Go for it
It went through it
Story of my freaking life
Today, we're gonna explore using
powder-actuated tool ammo in firearms. These are 22 cartridges that are necked down and
crimped, and these are head stamped Super X so, they're obviously made by Winchester
It is clearly marked on the box not to use these in a firearm, so let's see what happens when we do
But are those Calibers delve into those?
Todo
No quattro. I think he's saying damn it's cool to be out here with tell flooger Meister
So what's your idea here?
You stick the pellet in here...
And what are we using to power the pellets?
Uh, these little...
Those are those are for nail guns or those concrete setters powder charge and
You can get those at Lowe's. There's no shortage of those things.
How much are those for a box?
Like, four dollars.
Four or five bucks?
Yeah, and we're shooting
Pellets, 22 pellets
Out of a, out of an old beater 22 here, this Remington Speedmaster.
We want to find out if this is a good idea,
a terrible idea, or a great idea. It could be unsafe.
Think it's great
Haha, we'll see. So we're kind of muzzling. You know it is
You made sure it was it was clear right?
Yes.
Oh, you know we never put the charge in be first you put the pellet in first we know right?
We're stop about it another 1/2 inch down there you go get it marked
and it's a slow tedious process to do this and then
Then you just throw up, that's the most powerful one. They had it lows and
Then you can just charge it, and then we'll see how well it works?
There you go go for it
Wow
Now went through this plate help, how thick is that?
That's pretty thick about eighth inch stainless steel plate
And that do you think are normal 22 will do that. I think we need to try that
Okay, normal 22. How will it fare against our stainless plate ready whenever you're ready?
okay, that's
the 14 Grin pellet
And that's a was I 38 grain
22
pull it
Went through there like butter
That's the back side is
Wow, okay, let's shoot. The book it's about a inch and a half thick whenever you're ready go I
thought you know shooting those pellets with a
You know cement powder charge would be a stupid idea, but they work pretty good
and you can see it made a very clean hole wasn't tumbling or anything that we were concerned that maybe the
Pellets might not be able to handle that kind of velocity tumble around
But they're flying pretty pretty true. Okay at normal 22. Let's see. How that book holds up to that whenever you're ready
Neither the pellet nor the mini mag made it all the way through that book
We couldn't find any big remnants of the pellet and this is what we found
From the 22 mini mag, okay?
We're gonna shoot the locker. We've shot a bunch of times before and see all these pellets do that
It's pretty thick metal okay, hit it
Okay, let's shoot a normal 22 at the locker door see how it compares anytime
Way different so a normal 22 will go through there
Not a very clean look how clean that is it did have indented normal 22 no problem going through that?
Yeah, call it
22 looks I
mean it looks like it almost drilled through that thing the
laser
Yeah, it does against when these ditch bank watermelons cuz that's all we can afford
Well, you say nevers trying to make these rounds is what they want if you're shooting a squirrel
It's not going through it wow sploded it. That is one
Ugly watermelon
What about you got it compared with a regular 22 -?
Okay, normal Hollow point 22 long-rifle against the same
Quote watermelon, I don't know if these are even watermelon you found these right yeah, bitch bank
Went through there, no pellet. I'd say one
Yeah
how about
What about shooting it out of a pistol? Yeah?
Okay, okay now this these things are probably probably a bad idea to shoot out of a gun, but they're working
and they actually eject out the
empty brass and everything
you got to put a piece of tape on her nowhere to stop it, but
Always load the round in first and then load the powder charge in there, okay out of a ruger pistol
I
Would say the damage from the pellets is comparable to a high-velocity
varmint round the Crossman Hollow-point pellets
were obviously engaging the rifling and causing them to Spin and fly Stabili and
accurately
Near these powder charges nor these pellets were ever designed to be shot out of a firearm
They may be small, but they peck a hell of a punch these next few clips
I put the pellet shots on the top the CCI mini mag shots on the bottom
so we can compare the speeds the CCI mini mag was clearly outpaced by the
14 Grain Pellet the mini mag was only about a third of the way there if I were to guess the pels were traveling in
excess of
2,500 feet per second the
Damage between the two rounds was clearly different in each shot the high-velocity pellets dumped all their energy into the watermelons
Instead of passing right through it
I paid $10 for 500 rounds of these crossman
Hollow-point 22's
And these powder charges were about five dollars for a hundred rounds so for about Thirty-five dollars you get five hundred rounds
