Slow Mo Bullets

I'm guessng a lot of you guys have seen this but it was pretty cool. I wish I knew what all the calibers and types were.

I could watch this all day!
Yeah, I posted this up about a month ago, but someone already had it up in the powder keg.

I used to punch holes in mild steel plates when I had lots of other peoples ammo to shoot (i'm more conservative when it hits my own pockets). The bullets look like a mix of .224, 6.5mm and .30 calibers, but some look to be european in design, I think Lapua makes those ones with the pointy rear ends.

Are you just talking about the boat tails? A pretty easy to find bullet design, really. Plenty of 5.56 boat tails out there.

That's got all kinds of bullets of many different calibers in it. From .22's to what look like .50bmg, soft lead to armor piercings, and all kinds of target materials. I have great respect for whoever made those videos.

It's very cool, I posted it here too, but I prefer the music in the first version. Think I'll watch it again!

For instance, the first bullet impacting has a RN profile, but the 'boat-tail' is far more pointed than others made by domestic manufacturers and looks to me like the lead-free, environmentally friendly bullets made by Lapua.

I especially like the differences in reactions from the different designs of bullets; you can really tell which ones are varmint bullets - splashing lead = complete loss of structural integrity
