M134 Miniguns vs High-Speed Camera! - Ballistic High-Speed

[@Gwydion_Wolf]

no real 'praying' with this... its more "laser-pointer". the 9mm version of this Minigun is the 'spray and pray' as the round wonder more after fired, but 308 is essentially a laser-pointer out to quite a ways.

[@BallisticHighSpeed]

If you pause at 9:18, all of the little block dots on the top and right side of the alien head are bullet entrances. That pattern extends into the rest of the alien head, it's just tough to see in all the texture of it. There's at least 100-150 hits we found.

[@FirstDagger]

@@BallisticHighSpeed The obvious thing you have to do is using this M134 Minigun with tracer ammo.

[@ayebraine]

@@BallisticHighSpeed Why not show (emphasize) the 100 hits on the upper head. It would be interesting, especially since it's not obvious from the footage.

[@uctynguzb]

[@BFVgnr]

Pretty cool using the German training ammo for the 134. You'd need a special bolt assembly to shoot that ammo reliably in a regular firearm, but the electric drive means that the energy of the ammo doesn't matter to function and operation.

[@anteshell]

I'm guessing the "special bolt assembly" means a lighter bolt and/or lighter recoil spring to compensate for lesser amount of energy? Or is it something more specialised?

[@robertwest3093]

​@@anteshell Outstanding question! Probably what you said but could be more involved. I would like to know also.

[@ComplainBear]

Oh, that`s probably why it`s not firing about every 10th round. But it just spews out the unignighted rounds.

[@Kraakesolv]

​@@anteshellExactly. Used it a ton with the G3, had to swap the bolt for a lighter one.

[@altblechasyl_cs2093]

​@@Kraakesolv Not a lighter one, you have to change from the semi locking bolt to a mass bolt w/o locking function.

[@phdjgee]

Few can do it faster than an M134, or the M134's big brother that it came from, the 20 mm M61 vulcan that has a fire rate of 6,000 rpm. There is pretty much one rotary cannon that is faster, and that is the soviet Gsh-6-23, a 23 mm cannon with a fire rate averaging around 8,000 rpm. It is gas operated, which gives it a shorter spool up time and higher fire rate, at the expense of muzzle velocity.

[@Doc_Roe]

The sounds coming out of the actual minigun firing and the rounds whizzing in super slow-mo sounds like something out StarWars.

[@victoraugusto743]

It's sound effects, you can't solow-mo sound

[@dark2023-1lovesoni]

That's actually the result of incredible foley artistry (aka: sound design). I'm pretty certain they got the same guy that used to do Larry Vickers slow-mo sound design. Because the similarities are noticeable.

In case anybody is wondering why the M134 is called a Minigun, that is because it is a down scaled version of the 20 mm M61 Vulcan Gatling-style rotary cannon, which is used on the majority of modern USAF and USN fighter aircraft.

[@Flesh_Wizard]

Idea: 40mm Megagun

[@FirstDagger]

@@Flesh_Wizard 47 mm Hotchkiss revolver cannon says hello from the grave. 37 mm T250 Gatling-style autocannon from the T249 Vigilante also says hello. They in the end were just too large as size limits ammunition capacity. 20 mm is the default for US fighters, and 25 mm has been adopted because of the ammo compatibility and anti-tank capabilities. 30 mm will be on the way out with the A-10.

I was kind of hoping to see multiple projectiles traveling in the air, in between the target and mini. Just was curious how many the camera could catch in flight at the same time.

[@dirpdanger8839]

I believe I saw somewhere, they had to slow down the fire rate for the movie because it looked fake on camera.

[@UncleManuel]

Administrative Results recently did a video on "Predator" and it's weapons. They did shoot blanks in the minigun - because NOBODY can shoot a longer burst handholding the M134 with real ammo. The constant recoil just pushes everyone off their feet. This is the reason why miniguns are exclusively hardmounted. 😁✌️

Story time: I was at a soccer game when some gang shooting happened and round went flying everywhere and according to a police report there was about 150 shots fired. Everyone was running for their life and I hid behind some rocks and bushes near a road. Bullets went over my teammates and hit the ground near them and the wizzing sound from the slow motion reminded me of it. Multiple officer showed up with rifles and firearms just like a movie. I’m so glad no one got hurt and this video in slow motion just made me have flashbacks. Have a blessed day everyone! ❤

Hey guys I have an idea for ya, it would be cool if you guys did a video about “Project eldest son”. If you don’t know what that was, It was a covert operation by the United States SOG during the Vietnam War. Basically, they would introduce ammunition into enemy supply that had the smokeless powder replaced with high explosives. They did this with 7.62x39mm 12.7×108mm and 82mm Type 67 mortar shells I think it would make very cool slowmo to watch a remote fired AKM going full auto until it hit the tainted round somewhere in the middle of the magazine. Supposedly the tainted rounds had enough high explosives to knock the bolt of an AK backwards, through the person firing it, while the mortar and heavy machine gun could take out the entire crew operating it.
