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.

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?

Nice!! Made me giggle.

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!

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

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.

I love my 338. Feeding it gets expensive. Even hand loads are expensive.

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.

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!

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 :)

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 :)

HOT DAMN. That King of Armor plate really took that 338ap!?!?!

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.

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.

Nice vid guys. I'm not interested in much then armor penetration. & Justin check out notch cap, terra/aviator cut

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!

Ah 338 Lapua Magnum. Possibly my favorite caliber after the 22LR.

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

Were already there.

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.

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

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.

Nice camera system. I have two pairs of 25km 5G wifi to stream cameras through.

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 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.

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!

So where did you source 338 lapua AP then?….?

Perhaps having a level 4 armor plate right behind level 3 had something to do with not penetrating the level 3.

How long is the barrel length and the overall length of this rifle?

new toys! sweet!

If that was worn by a person. Would the spalling have hit the lower face. Chin area?
