50 Bmg Blow up....

Yes plugging the numbers into Gordons reloading tool using fast pistol powder you can EASILY get 190K and higher.
And none the less that this was a deliberate sabotage round also. I highly doubt that those sabot rounds were packed full of pistol powder.
The brass being vaporized and the comment that it must have been the bullet was cringe worthy. Guess he forgot the case is brass and right there...
Here is the problem. Mark pulled a gigantic number out of his ass that is unprovable. "It took a kajillion psi to blow up the serbu hurr durr". So he takes a new serbu and blows it up with his 1900000000000 psi load. Proves nothing. Puts the same load in the barrett and duh it blew up because nothing is going to take that abuse. How about incrementally increasing pressure and see what minimum psi blows up the serbu. Bet its closer to 80k than 190k (if mark can pull numbers out of his ass so can we). So do 80k 100k 120k. By the way does this dumbass get free Barretts or is he loaded? Then take the same minimum catastrophic load and put that in a Barrett and see what happens.

That’s what I shoot and when you look as exquisite as me you can’t take any chances

I think another factor no one has mentioned.
His 190 jilliin bajillion test round was loaded with a 750gr solid. There is little or no obturation of a solid. Lead will become fluid at high pressure, and obturate to a point it is the "cork" or weak spot.
Then again, its possible he figured out he couldn't achieve his cartridge bomb with a lead core bullet.
Also, he didn't really look down the barrel.
"I dont know where the bullet went."
This was an extremely ridiculous video, and due to lack of data, was irrelevant and useless.

Serbu is garbage
Just my opinion after owning one before they ever blew up

That is exactly what I was thinking.
I don't/haven't watched that fools videos.
Wait a minute. They are spreading a false narrative. Isn't that terrorism now? I mean, there's already at least one casualty we know of
Brilliant.
More "bro-science" thrown towards the situation in hopes adding a smokescreen to the situation.
Some scientific method this KB guy uses...
Bwaaahhhaahhh just found this gem.
Something for the fast lane
It is likely overbuilt and safe, but I would feel uncomfortable with what looks like 50BMG pipe gun having the Chamber under my cheek.
Ballard Arms SB-500. Single shot chambered in 50 BMG. 50 of them were made and were marketed to SWAT and Army as a “Powerful melee weapon for structure clearing”. The marketing doesn't help with confidence ither.

It's probably the camera angle, but that brake sure looks off.Something for the fast lane

Looks like fun as long as I'm watching you shoot it from 50 yards away.Something for the fast lane

Been around guns my whole life and as
God is My witness… I have no fucking idea what a “melee weapon”’is?
What retard wrote that shit? Sounds like a circle jerk gone bad….

Pointed, edged or blunt weapon for hand to hand combat. That being said, were they being honest or was it a Freudian slip
I suspect they are not native English speakers and much like a Chinese instruction manual it is fucked in translation. Probably trying to say CQB rifle but who the fuck uses a single shot for cqb?
So this is a melee weapon.Pointed, edged or blunt weapon for hand to hand combat. That being said, were they being honest or was it a Freudian slip
Not a badly-made LAR Grizzly clone made by people who use their feet in lieu of a bench Vice.

PS yes, I know it says it’s made in Utah. My comment stands.

Did Kentucky Ballistics ever say anything about where or from who the rounds came from?
I had a Grizzly in 45winmag it was brutal to shoot. Single stack so thin grip made the felt recoil pretty bad. I have a Smith 29 and it was pleasant compared to the Grizzly. So I got rid of the Grizzly, kinda regret it.
im so very confused by what he was trying to do with that video..except create content which apparnetly is all that counts now
he admitted that he doesnt use all available data when designing a action
he explained how internal ballistics work but then had to edit it and say he was 180 degrees off base
he can blow up all the ne rifles he wants and show us that it can handle a overpressure, but he has yet to discuss use/wear on threads and remaining strength which is all that counts
additionally, if he thinks that quickload or any other software is accurate 5-6X in calculations compared to its design envelope, hes even more clueless than we know already
EX; using a bathroom scale for a truck scale because the dial spins 10 times...must be accurate just count the spins

Though having never personally used quick loads, I understand it is just an approximation and especially in this application, its accurary is questionable. I think he states he has very little experience with it, says anyone who is knowledgeable on the program to comment. He reads comments, I have had exchange with him. He welcomes people to speak up.
Btw I believe his channel was demonetized, ie not making any money off these videos.
That being said, I believe his intention in using QL is to show the difference in powders and how that energy is released over time.
Figured I’d add this here, given the controversy.
