Our USMC boot camp drill instructor told us that 5.56 had the advantage of causing more interal organ damage to the enemy because the round was more unstable after impact, causing the bullet to tumble and scatter. By comparison, he taught us that the 7.62 was more powerful but had a piercing effect as opposed to the disintegrating effect like the 5.56. The instructor shot a tree trunk in front of us with a 7.62 rifle and the bullet went through the trunk, creating a clean hole all the way to the other side. This video confirms what I learned in boot camp. Thank you.

Which means be careful what size tree you use for cover. The big issue with the 762 is you lose your sight picture when you fire. It takes a second or two to acquire. With the 556 there’s virtually no recoil and you can keep piling them in one after the other on semi automatic, making it much more accurate for combat use. The thing it lacks is penetrating walls. The other thing that people forget unless they’ve humped the bush is the weight of that stuff. Lead is heavy and the difference between 308 and 556 is major. The big surprise for me was the shock of that 77, grain 556 round. That’s incredible that range in particular. I wonder how the drop profile compares to your 68 and 55😢 grain standard ball rounds.

The cap didn’t fail. The 168 gr projectile is moving much slower, so it gave the cap time to “react”. The faster moving projectiles did not give the cap time to react and blew the wall instead of the cap. Velocity out ways mass every time. The nazi’s were a prime example of mass, had a cannon bigger than a locomotive, sure it could reek havoc., But Tesla knew if you fired a grain of sand at a 100,000 fps that the devastation would be immense. “Particle beam accelerator “

Its all about the bullet. Someone who is an subject matter expert on all things 'guns and ammo', showed me how to make a 9mm round into a respectful self defense round. Pick the right gun, ammo for the task at hand. For self defense, I try to maximize the hydraulic shock of the bullet. For bear defense, I only go out with hard cast bullets for penetration (I cast my own, 10mm, 357mag)

Thank you Mr. Claus for taking the time to watch the video and for sharing some intelligent food for thought. In fact, both calibers were somewhat handicapped by barrel length. They both would have benefited from longer length barrels (especially if both were test fired from a bolt action.) At a very close distance like 50 or 100 yards this would have been a greater factor to consider, but at a distance of 300 yards, with both rounds having a chance to lose a lot of velocity I would have thought that the .308 could have easily overcome the difference in barrel length.

What we're seeing here is penetration capacity. What would be the outcome if there had been a second jug set up behind each of the three tested here? How much damage would have been done to the second target? What would happen if the jugs were set up at 500 yards instead of three. Air is fluid and has significant resistance when objects are moving as fast as bullets. People don't think about a bullet flight as penetration of Air. But that is essentially what happens.

I'm theorizing that the 5.56 77 gr tumbled and broke up, expending all striking force in the jug. The heavier 168gr / 147 gr bullets, with higher striking force, remained more stable and punched through, only expending partial striking force in the jug. Trying the same test again with soft point hunting ammo in all calibers would allow the heavier .308 bullets to expend most bullet striking force in the jug. In testing .31 and .36 caliber cap and ball revolvers, using original 1850's era pointed conical bullets moving at ~900 fps, the little .31 80 grain conical actually had more explosive damage on the 1st 1 gallon water jug than the .36 125 grain conical even though the 125 grain .36 actually has about 60% greater striking force. The reason was because the .31 cal 80 grain conical tumbled on impact, while the .36 125 gr conical punched straight thru!

I'm very impressed with this Sig version and now have to try it. I reload a 77gr using IMR8208xbr which I have gotten up to 2,836 in 10 shot avg as opposed to the BH MK262 at 2,779.

For years there has been a debate about using 22 caliber bullets to hunt deer and even larger game, this test goes to show the .224 bullet at high velocity creates a massive pressure wave and the damage it can inflict is enormous. Ron Spomer talked about a market hunter in Alaska named Frank Glaser, he worked for the Army and road building crews to keep them supplied with meat, his cartridge of choice the 220 Swift with 48 gr bullets. If you do not know the the 220 Swift is fastest commercially produced cartridge ever with a velocity of 4,665 fps(Wikipedia). Frank Glaser trapped/ hunted wolves, moose, Caribou, and even several grizzly bears with the 220 Swift, he stated moose and caribou just dropped when shot in the lungs with the 220 Swift. There was another trapper/hunter in Alberta Canada named Bella Twin in 1953 she killed a world record grizzly bear with a single shot 22LR rifle to the side of the head. She made sure the bear was dead with several follow up shots to the brain. When you consider with well built bullets like the Barnes TTSX and especially the 77 gr LRX have very high BC numbers, are ultra efficient in flight, penetrate deep, have less drift and drop than even the much lauded 6.5 crowd and with the ultra high velocities create damage patterns mimicking much larger cartridges it is understandable why the 22 caliber can be an lethal and ethical choice for harvesting game when the hunter does their job accurately placing the shot.

From my personal experience of shooting various water jugs with different calibers is that the bullet type makes a huge difference, had the 7.62/51 - 308 cartridges been soft points, or the like, you'd have seen much more damage. The hollow point used here is a target orientated round, not an expanding hollow point. Having said that the smaller 223 round di far more than expected, but ultimately it's about transferring the energy from the bullet to the target and the 7.62/308 rounds powered through, where as the 223 dumped more energy into the water and jug, despite being the less powerful round.

It certainly shows what damage that a hollow point heavy for caliber bullet will do in the 223. I am more amazed at with 147 grain ball round did as compared to the two hollow-point rounds. For me it's 308 all day, and that really opened my eyes as to what the ball round did compared to hollow points. I have a lot more confidence in my 308 with 147 grain ball ammo. Great video

Keep in mind, Open Tip Match (OTP) rounds do not function like a traditional hollow point. The open tip is to help with the flight of the round, but doesn't cause expansion. You need a hunting projectile usually for expansion in rifle rounds. Using a soft tip or one of the polymer tip hunting rounds would have had a more energy transfer into the jug and a bigger show. The first round just zipped through the jug, based on that exit hole.

On the first shot, the cap popped off. On the other two, the cap stayed in place, allowing for more internal pressure. I would like the see a "re-shoot" of the first round, to see if the cap stays on, and if the explosion would indeed be similar.

This is ine of the most impressive and surprising test I have seen, and goes to show that numbers can be deceiving. Even though the 77gr carried over a 1/3 less "power", it seemed to inflict more chaos, perhaps from the 250+fps advantage. I would love to see this test performed again with a true HSC, perhaps with the high speed camera guys, or just a rented one. This was a wonderful video with results that that truly surprised me. I would have called the 168gr GMM for the win easily, and that didn't seem to be the case.

Love the video. Thanks! I think a lot of guys think this concludes which is the better hunting round between the two, but forget that the presence of bones in the animal can totally disrupt this effect you’ve nicely shown. I think what it does conclude is which one is the best for varmits since the bones are smaller. Taking it to the extreme, momentum (mass x velocity) is a better determining factor on large, heavy, dangerous game rather than energy which puts more emphasis on velocity (KE=0.5 x mass x velocity x velocity). Of course bullet placement is always the ideal determining factor, but but most shots always come with the possibility that the bullet might encounter bone before taking out the heart or lungs.

They each have their best uses, that's why, in Vietnam, where most engagement occured in under fifty yards, the 7.62x51 was far more than was needed, and full auto in an M14 was practically uncontrollable, but for the odd long-range shot, the 7.62 was available.

Amazing. Great fun experiment. Incredible energy dump from the 5.56 round. I guess to some extent, if you scale that experiment down, it's what I have experienced when a .17 HMR round hits a target, compared with the venerable .22LR. it's a similar trade off from the very small, but very fast round. I also shoot .308/7.62 and would love to compare that with .243 Win (which I also have) in a similar experiment. Thanks for this enlightening film.
