I made a part 2 of this video because I wanted to make it very very very clear that this was a fair comparison of the 17hmr and 22mag comment rate and subscribe
This is probably a good *Rifle* round. I used a pistol, so it did not fragment as intended due to the lower velocities. It did exhibit cavitation and disruption at about 4 inches depth, and i assume the bullets started to tumble or yaw or spin or something after the polymer tips got blown out.
Part 2 of 2: Every shooter in the US should own a Ruger 10/22 (and I wish my overseas viewers could too!). It is the everyman’s, all-around .22 rifle. It shocks me when I find one that doesn’t! That’s because it provides immense enjoyment and capabilities for such a reasonable cost. Even out-of-box, the venerable 10/22 is accurate, very reliable, tough, ergonomic, lightweight, easy to use and carry, and most of all, fun! It continues to be an extremely successful Ruger design, having sold well over 5 million copies (and still going strong). It has out-sold and out-survived many other .22 designs to include the Remington Nylon 66. The 10/22 has always represented amazing value. That’s because for a reasonable price you are getting a rifle that will probably last your entire lifetime. My circa 1976 10/22 (shown) was given to me as a young man by my Dad and has adventured with me in the swamps of Florida and Alabama, the woods of Virginia, Montana, and Washington, the plains of North Dakota, and in the deserts of Utah, eastern Oregon, Arizona, and Idaho. And it’s still going strong. There are fancier and equally as-fun .22 rifles available but the 10/22s excel in most areas (and several cool Distributor Exclusive 10/22s abound, like the shown French walnut stocked TALO version) and provide unmatched versatility for the user. The 10/22 has a modular, simple design that makes upgrades to the trigger, bolt, magazine, stock, barrel, and sighting systems easy (many options shown …
just messing around. i figured it had enough power but i wasnt sure if the pressure in the cans would knock the back ones down. the back 2 cans were 1/4 to 1/2 full thats why it went flying into the weeds. check back for more videos. i just bought some full cans from the clearance shelf at walmart. im thinkin at least 1 needs to be shot with a 12 gauge slug.
We had some friends down at the farm and they had brought some of there rifles so we took a few shots at our 2.5 inch steel plate to see what different calibers would do to it we shot it with 22-250 44 Magnum 243 WSSM 308 and 30-06. we were shooting the plate from about 30 meters.
This is one of the small caliber pistols in the collection . This particular gun was purchased used in a pair with a .22 long little brother this gun is a blast the old school style makes it even more attractive I hope you enjoy the video
Finally a new video of being back outside blowing stuff up, havent had the chance to shoot much this year so far but I had great fun to finally be able to shoot on private property again, this time with my girlfriend, Katt and my cousin, Isaac who was visiting me. Aside from Isaac’s pistols (Taurus 9mm & .22 Ruger bull barrel) I have a few new rifles I had not shot till that day, I have been getting into WWII weapons and History more recently and my girlfriend bought me a 1943 Lee-Enfield #4 for Valentines Day, then I later bought a Springfield M1 Garand also made in 1943 and then a German K98 Mauser made at Mauser #243 AG Borsigwalde-Berlin in 1939.
