I know nothing about ballistic, so let me ask this: Wearing a

GREAT!!!!


IT WILL STOP IT!!!
YES!!!

It would be extremely painful.

>>33508139

your either dead, or about to be dead and wishing it would come faster-dead

it would fucking break you

>>33508139
Why aren't there any youtubers that shoot .45-70 at things? Everyone shoots shit with .45, 9mm, 5.56 and 7.62, but nobody shoots shit with .45-70.

Somebody tell Demolition Ranch Matt to get gud.

>>33508180
You're a big guy

>>33508246
Because no one in the right mind would use 45-75 for home defence,but still isnt a good enough reason not to fuck shit up with a 45-70 am i right?

>>33508246
He doesn't need any more money.
He is ruining his family with his youtube antics, purely for the pursuit of more ad revenue.

>>33508246

maybe something to do with it being am archaic caliber for old actions? wouldn't shooting 454 casual be more energetic amd more fun?

>>33508273
Well fair enough point with Matt, but other youtubers need to start shooting shit with .45-70 at least.

>>33508246
iv8888 had a OK video about shooting armor with slow + heavy rounds. Needless to say 45-70 or slugs don't do shit to steel.

>>33508280

because nobody shoots guns for fun. they solely use guns for self-defense, high-speed, low drag type tacticool shit.

This, get good guys

Hickok45 does some plinking on his range as he reviews things like a Henry 45-70 and a couple of others

>>33508834
Yeah but he only shoots steel and 2 liters. I like seeing a wide variety of materials shot, I find that gives me a more intuitive understanding of what to expect.

>>33508268
Have .45-70 lever gat sitting next to my bed right now.

>>33508139

The impact and shrapnel would most likelt be painful. The shooter will most likely magdump you just in case if its going to be more real.

>>33508255
For you.

Stop the actual round? Probably.

Stop enough kinetic energy from a cartridge that can be used for hunting some of the largest and most dangerous game on the planet? Probably not. It's going to hurt. A lot. A level 3 vest will keep a sledgehammer from going into your soft bits but it's still going to fuck your shit up.

speed kills armor, these old rounds don't fit the bill.
