@@Hard_Cider It's definitely a wadding because the bullet is doesnt seem shattered whenever he finds it. It's definitely not a black powder gun, given the power of the cartridge.

Edit: ignore my calculations below. As @seth094978 has rightfully pointed out, the calculations I made did not equate to psi. I had mistaken ft-lbs for pounds of force. I did some further research and found that the maximum pressures of 4 bore and .416 Rigby are 36,259 psi and 47,137 psi, respectively. This does not change my conclusion that the .416 Rigby exceeds the 4 bore in terms of pressure, though my process in coming to that result was flawed. For those wondering, here's a comparison between 4-bore and .416 Rigby. A 4-bore slug is estimated to produce around 7,000 ft lbs of force. With a diameter of 1 inch, this gives it a cross-sectional area of .785 square inches, meaning it produces around 8,900 psi of pressure. A .416 Rigby, on the other hand, produces only 5,115 ft lbs of force. However, with a diameter of just .416 inches, it has a cross-sectional area just shy of .136 square inches. This gives it a whopping 37,633 psi of pressure, over 4 times the pressure of a 4-bore slug. *This* is why it punches straight through the VANT ballistic shield, cinder block and probably another mile of trees and dirt.

Scott, this has to be one of the most enjoyable videos you have ever made. I'm heading to a plastic surgeon to see if he can relieve this stuck smile I have on my face! Seriously, I'm not sure if the intro or the shooting portion was more fun! You are the most entertaining, fun loving persons I have ever come across, and I've seen a few in my 74+ years! Bless you my friend, (I'm taking the liberty to call you that), thank you for taking my mind off of this crazy world we are living in. My best wishes always, Rick A P.S.

We definitely need to see some more of that .416 “honey badger” doing its thing to different targets at multiple different ranges, after it defeated the shield I thought for sure the following larger bore rifles would as well, the fact that not a single other larger caliber did absolutely took me by surprise, so I think a video of just that .416hb(what I will call it from now on) doing its thing is in order, I can’t imagine how your shoulder must’ve felt a couple hours after filming this one, giving it a chance to stiffen up a bit I’m betting it hated you and let you know it lol

I love the shot on the glass. The .416 is in shot for exactly two frames, and it's already smashing the glass in the second, and the very next frame is just an expanding cloud of white glass dust. It looks that three frames later, the bullet appears on the far side even and keeps on going, disappearing from the field after another four frames, considerably slower, and possibly trailing some kind of ballistic material being carried with it, before the entire field of view just turns white with glass dust. Very impressive.

I think the scariest thing you could do now with that 4-bore round is make a custom round with a Spitzer tip instead of the soft-nose, I think that would likely help with greater penetration power against the Vant shield.

@Phantom-bh5ru That's just too easy though, and we need to maximize the potential of the 4-bore rifle besides. I'm tired of high caliber shoulder fired weapons using soft-nose ammunition and people treating that like it's the pinnacle of that round's performance when there's still clear room for improvement.

@@killiandawson4674 I have an idea. Make it a hollow point with a tungsten sabot right in the middle. If it hits soft target the hollow point would spread out dealing maximum damage. However if it hits armor the tungsten sabot would rip out of the middle and continue forwards.

Changing materials would probably help even more. Lead is TERRIBLE for penetration. A solid brass slug would penetrate much more, even with a round nose. However, it might hurt the barrel and I could understand not wanting to do that witch such an exotic gun. I guess he could get a sub caliber tungsten carbide penetrator and just cast some led around it to fit the bore. The most effective would probably be to make a home made APDS round by grinding on some carbide endmills and building a sabot around it, though getting the sabot right is real hard.

@@youbetterwakeup2449 his 50 exploded because it had a powder charge which created to much pressure.
