Ball bearing steel, is a very high quality steel, that not many people know, it makes the best steel for a hard use fixed blade knife. Its carbides cut really smooth and easy and it's my favorite steel to sharpen. It just likes to get sharp! It's also one of the toughest steels arround. I have tried almost all the high quality tool steels and super steels out there...but ballbearing steel, will always be my favorite. Whenever I see slingshot ammo, I always think of a hammer,smashing them into a blade stock!!!

@@charlieberry8056 I don't have any videos but I can help you on 3 different things, that I really know and have experience. For Slingshot hunting, you have to get a good slingshot, with flat rubbers (stay away from the round rubber ones, that are made from steel and plastic, they are not accurate at all, even the most expensive ones) So, get a flat rubber band slingshot, made of laminate wood or any hard wood! Then for ammo, I guess you know what you need. KZbin video and practice, help a lot. The diameter and the weight of the ball, determens the distance of the target. I mean, I would choose a more heavy ball, to shot at close distance and so on. Also the diameter of the ball, is another factor that will determine, what I'm going to shot. If I want to shot a glass window, then I choose a larger than 1mm diameter ball, to add to the power, that can break a glass easier. Be careful, I've seen steel balls, reflected from windows, back to the shooter! Always shot in an angle and don't be close to the target, except it's a Rabbit, that came in front of you! I'm also into blowguns, which is my favorite weapon, but fixed blade knives, is that what I know more about. I have huge collection, but I'm more a user trying always to find the best out there, than I am a collector. I don't "Baby" my knives, they all have been used for long periods, before I make my opinion on them. If I can help you more,please feel free to ask for anything I could possibly help. Thank you for your kind words.

Hi! I did some statistics and calculations based on your Results: Rank (Distance in Gelatine): 1. 10mm Lead 2. 11mm Lead 3. 11mm Steel 4. 12mm Steel / 9mm Lead 5. 8mm Lead 6. 8mm Steel . Rank (Mass): 1. 11mm Lead => 7.9g 2. 12mm Steel => 7.1g 3. 10mm Lead => 5,9g 4. 11mm Steel => 5,5g 5. 9mm Lead => 4,3g 6. 8mm Lead => 3,0g 7. 8mm Steel => 2,1g . Rank (Mass per Surface): 1. 11mm Lead => 2,1g / cm² 2. 10mm Lead => 1,9g / cm² 3. 9mm Lead => 1,7g / cm² 4. 12mm Steel => 1,6g / cm² 5. 8mm Lead => 1,5g / cm² 6. 11mm Steel => 1,4g / cm² 7. 8mm Steel => 1,0g / cm² . Unfortunatly there are no speed-values available. In combination with speed values it would be quite interesting how the different aspects influences the Gelatine-Rank. . Greetings from Germany!

This is an excellent test and he's a brilliant shooter! Really really accurate. However, I think that it would be necessary to shoot many of the same balls before you can determine a pattern. For example, you shoot six or seven 8mm lead, then six or seven 8mm steel, and so on. That way you can see whether there's really a pattern or not. I think that's how statisticians study patterns. However, this may not have been the purpose of the video and it's an amazing experiment nonetheless. Thank you for it.

Excellent video. But IMO needs to be repeated because you can see that because the gel block is not restrained, so when the balls hit the gel block it gets 'jolted', back a bit. This is particularly noticeable with the larger balls. This effectively reduces the penetration so skews the results . Repeat test and have a back stop for the gel. I suspect the larger balls will then show a higher penetration. This will be apparent particularly for the steel balls which have less mass / surface area & hence higher CoD than the lead.

Drag increases at a square of the size of the object. For instance, twice the diameter would be four times more drag, such as through both air and gel... Weight increases with volume, so at a cube of the scale. For instance, twice the diameter would be eight times the weight... Slower speeds mean longer in the air, therefore more effect on gravity and wind. An excellent shot would be able to make allowances... Different materials spring faster than others. Whereas rubber bands spring faster than bows, different rubber bands spring differently too, and changing band size screws the testing... It looks like he should've been looking for the highest weight, for the smallest volume, as guides, and stopped when he found the deepest consistent hit, to find the best momentum... He really should have fired several, of each size, for a far better average...

With a shotgun, smaller lead gets more penetration because it takes fewer feathers into the meat. Size 4 takes too many feathers into the meat and doesn't go deep, whereas 7 .5 shot with the same powder goes all the way through. I am not sure how that would relate to a slingshot with a much bigger lead. Any thoughts?
@slingshot8694
@slingshot8694 5 жыл бұрын
Select the steel as large as possible under the maximum tension that you can stabilize. The bigger the steel is, the better the shot is, at the same initial speed, the target of the fire is 30 meters, and the speed at the distance of 10 mm to the distance of 30 meters is greater than 9 mm. Second, big steel is more destructive, and large-area internal injuries are more deadly than through injuries! Better not to wear, let the kinetic energy all be absorbed by the prey! More importantly, the accuracy of precision is more important than the power

Great penetration test! I do still wonder what would be the best ammo for long range target shooting accuracy? Would the 8mm steel be the underdog in that case or would 8mm lead be preferred or even something more heavy? (these question are asked imagined the bands get maximized for every ammo type of course) And just a thought, I guess that if he would have shot a 10mm steel it could have beat or be in the same spot as the 11mm lead, right?! (considered that 11mm steel was deeper than 12mm I figure 10 might even top that) Or would 10mm steel land behind 12mm steel?! It would actually be the most important ball that could have been shot after this lineup, because it would go either second or third place or second last, interesting?! Also 9.5 or 10 would be more cost efficient and might be the preferred ball for my first question to be the best choice to not only cover penetration but also long range and accuracy?!

You'd shoot a lot more accurately if you were to obtain and use a better mold - the lead balls in the closeup of your hand had moon craters and ridges, which catch on the wind/air as they move towards the target, making them aerodynamically poor, compared to completely round spheres.

@@CattyShackHunter Yes even gold. i think a 200 grain projectile would be worth 1200$AUD. But if you're shooting indoors with a catch-box you wouldn't be loosing them. They would have the best mass to wind resistance ratio.

excelente documental sobre los proyectiles y sus medidas para la mejor opción en los disparos con resorteras, se agradece y se felicita a fieldsports channel, podría en un futuro un vídeo que se pueda ver la velocidad y la potencia segun las distancias de las diferentes medidas de proyectiles para resorteras de 8mm, 9,5mm, 10mm, 11mm, 12mm, etc. excelente y felicitaciones, son los únicos que han hecho entender los disparos en gel balístico...gracias

@@erikrigt4294 hahaha let's just say I was lucky not to look up . I pre loaded a pellet in my hammerli 550 (was a crossman premier domed) but didn't cock it . Anyway we was fucking about and he thought it was unloaded but didn't check, cocked it and aimed it at me and squeezed that trigger. Nhs piece of shit didn't wanna take it out there and then so I had to wait from January to June to have it removed. Luckily no penetration into my skull , just the flesh so thank god for 12ftlbs . Toss pots called the police too because it's technically a firearm incident so was questioned by police and asked if I wanted to press charges. I'm just lucky I didn't look up when he called my name because I'm stubborn or else I'd have no right eye and probably disabled or even dead but I don't like to think about that. Gives me chills

Slingshot and catapults are the same. The lead balls are large and single so, even if they do penetrate, you can easily extract them before you cook. / Charlie
