It's pretty crazy that the lower receiver was able to stop the bolt carrier dead in it's tracks and redirect it forward with that catastrophic of a failure. You did damn good Mr Stoner!

[@tyronejackson6593]

The lower faired well. Of course the upper came apart around the bcg so there wasn’t much rearward momentum.

[@martindrengenxbox360]

I have a story for you, Scott. Several years ago I worked in a gunstore, I met a lot of interesting people and heard a lot of stories. One day, one of our regulars comes in, all bandaged up, it looked pretty crazy. His story, however, was even more crazy. He explained he and one of his buddies had been out shooting on a field, he was using his old Winchester model 70, chambered in .270win. His buddy brought a rifle chambered in .308, by now you're probably catching on as to what happened that evening. Somehow their ammo had gotten mixed up, and he grabs a round, puts it in his rifle and chambers it. The .308 goes right into the chamber of his Winchester Model 70 which was chambered for .270. He pulls the trigger and the rifle goes boom. Barrel went flying down range, the scope slammed right into his forehead, the left side of the receiver went into his forearm and the rest of the rifle went everywhere else. The man calmly explained how he really liked that rifle, and if at all possible, would love to buy another model 70 if we had one. He was truly an interesting man, it's honestly people like him that made the hassle of retail work worth it.

[@KiithnarasAshaa]

This series has highlighted that it is not just the chamber pressure alone that determines the _severity_ of an overpressure event - it's also the total energy of that overpressure event; The comparatively dinky 5.56 still did substantial damage to the weapon and surroundings even though the test subject fared quite reasonably. Similar was true of the pistol detonations. By comparison, .50 BMG is packing _significant_ energy, as Scott knows first-hand.

[@ic_trab]

Well his thumb at least anyway.

[@ericsfishingadventures4433]

He knows first thumb! I kinda wish these guys would stop giving politicians ammunition (dumb pun intended) to take away our 2nd amendment rights. But I also understand it's educational in a way about safety. I love Scott and his other friends channels but those politicians are tards and know nothing about firearms even though they are surrounded by private security with them. Stop electing the stupid ones!

[@mcpr5971]

Rather than just using the safety, perhaps it would be even safer to insert the hot load as the 2nd round in the mag, so even if it "just goes off" when you take the safety off, only a normal round would fire. Only problem is you'd have to set up your string to work multiple times in a row. Just a thought

[@matthewhartup941]

The barrel had a bullet lodged in it, a squib. So the gun would've exploded after the first round fired either way.

I know grant given it's a hot round versus a squib load, but still knowing what would happen when using a rifle that has a catastrophic failure is important for me. As a Marine, I learned firearm safety not in just handling but remedial actions, which includes knowing when there's a squib load. That being said, it's kinda unavoidable if you happen to have that one hot round. Thank you for posting this one!

What I like the most about this series is when you go gradualy up to se at what point the gun fails. Slightly hotter round each time. Can't remember if you blew up a leveraction yet, if not it's time!

[@whatsmolly5741]

There is no casual increments involved here. Even in a .223 barrel alot of loads top out at 100% case capacity so if we assume 100% case capacity is max 55k pressure in order to create a 550k psi round you would have to literally compress the powder into a solid and fit 5-10 times more powder than 100% case capacity. Actually I take that back, I don't even think it's possible with the fastest rifle powders meant for .223 and ya he even said it's a squib so I'd bet that round wasn't even capable of blowing up the gun without the obstruction.

[@commiesnzombies]

[@alflyover4413]

@@whatsmolly5741 Pistol powder or shotgun powder would do it. How much? I have no idea.

[@lvlpkr]

Would love to see these tests without a squib. An over pressure failure would be much more likely than both. But I know you kinda only get one go at blowing it up and you want a proper boom. Thanks again Scott

[@johnsheppard1476]

Some of the guns that were overbuilt to high extent might even survive any possible overpressure rounds you can make using any smokeless powder-based stuff but I would love to see it anyway! I used to have an old Forehand&Wadsworth D/A #32 revolver in .32 rimfire and believe it or not but I ended up increasing the load all the way to maximum pressure possible in it's caliber by filling it's whole case capacity with the PETN-laced super-fine and really fast burning smokeless powder and the gun survived even that!So the barrel was just 2.5" and the bullet weight was 100 grains;the bore diameter .316" and case length .800" so basically the round was dimensionally identical to .32 S&W long and the muzzle velocity reached a whopping 2130 fps!So the damn .32 snub nose revolver ended up producing over 1000 fpe which is by the way exactly the same energy as the full sized (18" barrel) AK-74 rifle with ball ammo in 5,45×39mm! Just imagine the recoil by the way: the little sucker kicked like a good .44 magnum should feel!

[@Scuffed_Gambit]

[@Squirrel428]

The keltec RDB is probably relatively safe if an similar round was chambered and fired out of it. Since it had a downward ejection and the magazine well to direct the blast. Of course the magazine would still be destroyed along with the bolt and piston.

[@royston5987]

The skits at the beginning always make me laugh 😂 That AR froze in mid air 😂. Pukka slow-mo

[@murphymmc]

I've seen a couple of catastrophic failures with the AR, the inherent design directs the great majority of the blast into the BCG and down the magwell. Pretty much destroys the small parts leaving the lower repairable. In the two incidents I witnessed, no harm to the shooter, no forearm damage, no hand damage, nothing came back into the face. These were normal rounds, failure was determined to be a headspace issue. Those were pretty small blasts compared to your "test".😂

[@Alfs_Armory]

My theory is that the destruction occurred primarily downward and laterally due to the bolt being locked into the receiver extension and the squib not allowing gas to get to the gas tube to unlock it. This setup needs to be done twice more. Once with a clear bore, to see if the gas system would prevent some of the damage and once with the lugs shaved off the bolt.

[@edifyguy]

Donate two more ARs and I'm sure he'll be happy to do that for you. :)

[@KimballPrecisionRifles]

500,000 psi is way too much pressure. The bolt would likely not have unlocked before the whole gun exploded anyways, like seen. The pressure is way too high, and way too fast. The powder being used for these loads is waaaay faster than a normal rifle powder, so the pressure builds up incredibly fast. It would explode before the bullet has even moved down the barrel much.

[@Alfs_Armory]

@@KimballPrecisionRifles I’m not saying it will survive. It would just be interesting to see what difference it might make in the blast patterns. I would especially like to see what would happen if it sheared the lugs off a weak bolt .

I was on my way to go to sleep, when your went online and I needed to watch it immediately. 😀 It was once again so much fun, especially 6:29 made me a little jumpscare, or better said: Scott you got me again. I freakin love your videos, you're the best and most interesting and funniest Gun-Channel in my humble opinion. It was more than worth it to stay awake. 🙂👍 Thank you Scott. 🤘

[@jasoncannon2751]

Hey Scott. Love the videos. I watched the AR15 destruction video and curious what they put in that load that busted it. I’m a reloader and was curious about bullet weight, powder type etc. The Squibb probably didn’t help…. Keep them coming!!!

[@TheRealSwampOperator]

I'd like to see him re do the series , with incrementally increased loads, with no squibs or outside effect... Just the over charge and. Pressure estimation

[@jugger_chonker6275]

i laughed so gosh darn hard when he said sodastructive XD

[@bluezdr]

Scott, I often compliment, and always like, you're videos because I think they're really good. I've been around since before 1m subs and this one was truly exceptional. Your talking was like a well written script, especially with a great series of puns. You're table work seemed especially on point, as well as your shooting seemed a little smoother and faster... can't forget about another great intro. If only you would have had a nicer day going for you, I can't imagine this video being any better. Keep up the great work, you are an awesome dude!

I think it would be cool to see an episode of this series focusing on super hot, overpowered small caliber rounds like 22lr, 22 mag, 25 acp, 5.7x28, etc… I wonder if you could make those small rounds high-pressured enough to edit anything

[@roseblite6449]

I can tell ya what not to do when reloading and you get a Hot Round, don't throw it into the melted lead. My dad's friend did this when they were reloading, years before I was born (sometime before 1969), and when he threw that round into the melted lead crucible everyone scattered to a safe distance before it exploded. The crucible had a fair sized hole in it and lead was scattered everywhere. Morals to this story, don't reload while drinking, and if you make a mistake don't throw it into the hot lead crucible. From the guns/rifles we had when I grew up the round was either a .22 LR or a .30 Cal. So a doubled powdered round (at least) round could be quite spectacular, even with only a .22 LR.

[@motosk8er2]

I'm also gonna throw my hat in the ring for a 10/22. When I was a kid and didnt know much about guns I took my cheap-o savage bolt action .22 rifle and two 22lr rounds. I pulled the bullets out of both and dumped all the powder into one case and pressed the bullet back in. Stupid me thought twice the powder = twice the velocity. The gun failed somewhat catastrophically. Cracked the bolt and spewed a few parts out the ejection port. I was fine thankfully.

[@joegranchelli415]

@@motosk8er2 haha yeah, thankfully you’re okay. 10/22 is a fine rifle. I have 2 of them and never had any issues

[@Ginrummy33]

When I was young, I sometimes would pull the lead off a .22 bullet, because you could easily do this with just your fingers, and then put the powder from one into another to double it and put the bullet back in. I fired a couple of these in an old single-shot bolt-action .22 rifle and they made quite a bang, but they didn't do any noticeable damage. It did vent some gas out the breach face and jar the bolt handle up some, and but not all the way open. I never did this with anything stronger because I realized that would be pretty stupid. :)

[@JSAFIXIT]

5.7x28 would be interesting. That's already a speedy pistol round. I wouldn't want to blow up my 57 though, it's a fun pistol.

I seem to recall Stoner talking about the downward-directed blast upon failure as a designed feature.

[@CSltz]

Would a full clip make any difference? The only thing that I remember about the original m16. Was when the range officer told us to always make sure that the charging handle was pushed come forward. Or you risk the chance of really being able to talk out of both side your mouth.

What Scott is trying to say here, just cause you almost pass away from one item doesn't mean you have to switch up your hobbies. Scott almost passed from a 50 cal explosion but he's still Here and he's still having fun shooting his guns
