Re: High speed video of bullet impacts
Saw a show today where NASA has a gun that shoots at Mach 13 - to test for asteroid impact.
Their bullets flash when they hit....Impressive!
5 miles a second - that's 26,000 fps....whew....
They film at almost 1 million frames per second, this is all multimillion dollar equipment but impressive!

I think I saw this a year or two ago in American Rifleman. They use a squeeze bore to get it to seal and get close to the expansion rate of the fuel. They were shooting a plastic BB at a 6 inch or so piece of steel and it went clean through the thing. I will have to see if I can find it.

Re: High speed video of bullet impacts
I havent seen that one..... Very cool.
But what the hell was the little balls hitting the pistol bullets in the first couple minutes of it? Water drops? BB's?
