One of the reasons it's going so straight is because you have weight on top of those blocks and when there is no weight on top of them, the blocks themselves get squirrely and jump around and that causes the projectile to deflect. So that is my hypothesis. 😊

[@AntiIlluminati360]

Man, I love your video editing. It's such great humor. You're doing awesome job.

[@mralmightypenguin]

i have a theory about the bullet staying straight. as we have seen from the slow mos, the ballistic gel itself goes rather ballistic when hit with high power rounds. so it may be that as the bullets slow down in the gel, the shockwaves inside the gel catch up and start tossing the bullet around with it. but when you packed other blocks around it, it held the middle ones more in shape. so you didn't go through all that effort for nothing after all. so here's an idea - weld a huge reinforced U-beam that fits the ballistic gel blocks snugly inside, one side open to relieve the pressure and allow filming. perhaps sub-block size holes on the other sides as well for extra pressure relief and extra light. you'd lose some of the magnificent wobble but may get better penetration and clearer view of bullet travel in gel on slow mos.

[@jamesgravel7755]

That’s what I was thinking. I was going to comment similar. The weight of all the gel around it was needed to keep it strait

[@dylanzrim3635]

Putting a black backing would be beneficial for filming

[@Peter_Aranyos_Jr]

That's a great observation about the gel and I wonder how long it would take to build something like that

[@CallMeMrChainmail]

That, plus, in this case, the mass of the bullet would make it pretty impossible for the low mass gel to push it off course.

[@itsamk18-ish]

I think it has something to do with how fast a round is going and the shape. A 5.56 round for example hits something so fast it starts to tear apart and the pointy tip causes it to go all wonky. With the mass of the 4 bore and the shape plus what you’re saying with all the support on those center blocks it just drives it straight. I’d love to see him shoot the gel wall with a .50 bmg and see if it has similar results.

I bet part of the reason it shot straight through the blocks is because there were other blocks around the blocks it hit. Part of the deviation is likely due to the block jumping. So in the future I bet you could get better results if you put cinder blocks on top of the ballistic gel blocks.

[@-Zevin-]

This is a good point and would probably help, but some bullets are just going to deviate regardless due to their shape and balance, Russian 5.45 is one that just goes crazy every time.

[@jacobwilbert1018]

Thats not actually how that works at all. Heavy, slower projectiles especially for caliber go straight. Speed them up n they deviate, rapid deceleration. By the time a block moves or jumps the projectile is long gone.

[@TheeGlocktopus]

@@-Zevin- Moment of Inertia and Conservation of Angular Momentum. 4 bore rifles are big heavy and moving slowly (respective). It takes a lot more force to alter the moment of inertia because of the weight, and since that much weight is spinning, conservation of angular momentum adds to the force require to alter the path. When you have a light bullet travelling very fast, the moment of inertia is far less and conservation of angular momentum is drastically different upon any sudden speed differential. Weight balance plays a big role in this as well. Short, fat heavy projectiles require more to alter the path. This is exactly the same principal that causes .45 ACP, or any unbalanced projectile to keyhole at distance, the front half of the round has a different moment of inertia than the rear of the round. Conservation of this angular momentum causes it to wobble. This is why spherical rounds/shot don't keyhole or even wobble, they are always balanced.

Always been the .458 Lott fanatic and am growing more fond of 458 Socom and 50 Beowulf. The pain those would cause me was almost enough to make me throw in the towel but you've become somewhat of an inspiration...with what you have overcome it reminds me to cowboy up and keep fighting for what ya love. Been fighting this for 30 years and you're helping me feel and want to continue for another 30...

Thank you for sharing that with us all. Best wishes brother 🙏🏼

After reading the accounts of elephant hunters and game wardens I've learned that large diameter bullets sometimes fail to penetrate frontal skull shots. Smaller diameter rounds (like the .375 H&H) actually do much better.

That's some nice looking pistol rounds - some decked out space marine...

can't wait to see ''double the gel , double the fun'' hehe

[@bobbym8458]

i absolutely love how you always compare bullet sizes to common things so everyone can get an idea of how big they are

[@Rhidongo]

I'd love to see what the 4 bore would do to an engine block, and even the armour plating of a tank.

[@thePavuk]

It's just lead. It gonna vaporise on impact on hard metal.

[@Rhidongo]

@@thePavuk You lack creativity. How big would the crater be on the side of a tank? How much damage would it do to an engine? I know it won't go through any major serious armour plating, but if that's the case, why are there videos of safes being shot at by .50 bmg out there?

[@noteden3446]

@@Rhidongo because 50bmg isn't made of just soft lead, this is.

[@Rhidongo]

@@noteden3446 There's still a heap of energy being dumped, though. Yes, I'm aware that a .50 and 4 bore are very different in composition, but on the other hand, you're just trying to sound smart on the internet, when we're just here to watch things get shot at.

[@noteden3446]

@Rhidongo the lead from the 4 bore would flatten on impact and Immediately either completely fall apart or just fall to the ground

[@djkueber3570]

Finally got 1 of your awesome shirts have wanted 1 since I first saw your amazing Chanel entertaining and informative hard combo to do well done

[@Vanilla-jd1ez]

Very entertaining, this is the only shooting channel I watch. Which confuses the heck out of the KZbin algorithm, lol

[@dennmark4843]

Impressive results. Can’t believe there was so little bullet travel deviation! Great vid Scott, keep it up!!

[@nate2838]

I'm pretty sure that a chunk of that had to do with the blocks around the center keeping them from being able to move as the bullet was traveling in it. The rest of it I would say is due to the weight of the bullet.

[@SinisterBlackShadow]

The multiple fireballs within the gel on the round nose was interesting. Maybe the rapid collapse of the gell generated enough heat through adiabatic compression to ignite some of the leftover in unburned powder. Awesome video man, and you're hilarious lol! Maybe shoot 76 inches of Furbies with the 4 bore next!

[@guavamax420]

YES, GIT RID OF THOSE F**KING FURBYS!!! lol

[@jrstoelting]

Destin from Smarter Every Day said that is sona luminescence.

[@jrstoelting]

Sonoluminescence.

That’s exactly what’s happening

Hi Scott only just recently came across your channel watching from the UK so I'm on catch up love your humour keep it up 😂

I'm dying at "Let's wreck my shoulder" 🤣

Can't wait to see the Slow Mo Guys collab with the 4 Bore! That first-block wound channel must have some INSANE stuff going on!

[@danielwolf6875]

That second shot....the Slow-MO, was Absolutely Spectacular!!!

[@Ronnie_B]

I love falling-block actions. That is one sweet looking cannon

[@thezen8021]

Dude that thing is epic, and the kick looks insane

[@malice5121]

The 4-bore continues to drop jaws with just how impressive that monster rifle round is. I was not expecting it to go through all 76+" of ballistic gel, let alone in a straight line. I couldn't believe my eyes when I first saw that round nose just pop right out the back as if it were the honey badger.

[@b01tact10n]

Seeing the slowmo of the recoil is pretty impressive. That's one badass rifle😁👍👍

[@NathanMalnaa]

4:45 I'm just now hearing about the Firby uprising, even though I'm pretty sure they were around in the 90s lol

[@grisslebear]

I love how you hose yourself down to make it look like it's hot in KY. in the summer.

[@RexSkittles]

I slowed down the slomo on the explosions inside the Ballistics gel. I think there was four separate shock explosions! That’s definitely a first ever on video!! Good job Scott!

[@michaelpeters5696]

Shock explosion? I couldn't tell what that was - didn't think it could be left over gas, so mebbe sun reflection?

[@averagelocalgamer6087]

I think it was unburnt powder igniting

[@edwardlance2379]

It's called "sonoluminescence." As the bullet strikes the target it creates a gap of air inside of the gelatin. We often refer to this as the temporary cavity. Before the block collapses down to its original shape, the air is low pressure and low temperature. Sometimes these air bubbles can become trapped when their escape route to the atmosphere is cut off by collapsing gelatin. In this case the collapsing gelatin compresses the air driving the pressure and temperature up almost instantly. If this occurs violently enough the air can reach temperatures in excess of 7500F. This causes the molecules to emit a burst of light. It's very quick, happens in as little as 35 trillionths of a second, but a video camera can see it.

[@tomshepard9050]

@@edwardlance2379 exactly what I thought. it is like a little compression combustion effect, reminds me of collapsing subs....0.o

@@edwardlance2379 Thanks brother-don't think I've ever seen that before. Does this happen w/ .50BMG/.416 other VFB (Very Fast Beans)?

[@explosivesun8608]

I was hoping you were going to try and line up the remaining ballistic gel blocks and use another round nose cartridge to see how many blocks you can shoot through before the round stops or deviates.
