You should test the 220 Swift on some armours along with a ballistic dummy.
Fastest bullet in the world.

I love that Scott has taken what was probably the scariest thing that's ever happened to him and turned it into a series
I know, what a Chad.
And an educational series at that
@@fredcrane3951 indeed, I know of at least 1 time it has been used to display to kids that guns are not toys. They are tools to be used and respected.
VERY agreed.
A profitable and lucrative series
I love how Scooter racked the lever a handful of times with no shells coming out, yet the gun is still loaded and he blasts the camera to kingdom come 🤣
The magic of movie editing... 😁
Leave it up to scooter and he'll find a way to make an empty firearm somehow shoot 😆
Scooter's Law - If a gun can be loaded, it already is.
@@Caannnnoonn now that’s good. That needs to be a phrase he uses
@@punisher3607 Scooter is secretly an Ork, confirmed!
I'm press F to pay the respect of the poor camera being blasted.
This series is getting better and better with every episode, a price to pay with destroying these weapons but only a legend could turned a serious incident into a helpful series!
But the real question is, how did he load a round after chambering 12 times tis a mystery
Scott you're CRAZY ! However , you definitely make the most entertaining firearms videos . I have to say that it kinda hurts to see perfectly good guns destroyed , but it's one hell of an experience . GREAT VIDEOS
I'll Re-request a bullpup rifle! Really curious if the chamber being further back makes them more dangerous.
Top tier content as usual Scott.
That's actually a great question. I for one would love to see that
Not really, the point of bullpup weaponry is to get similar accuracy and velocities to standard weapons in a more compact package. You can get longer barrels which theoretically get you higher projectile velocities, but that in and of itself does not make a bullpup more "dangerous" than a standard design. This is partially why there is a plethora of ammunition varieties suited to various tasks.
*Edit* Guys, I've been made aware, as I explained in a reply to another person, I have younger family members who ask questions like this, so I didn't even bother thinking in context of the video. Sheesh.
i like this
@@CreedofDarkness the potential for extra danger is because the chamber is closer to your face rather than your hand.
Whats about barrel-out-barrel-in-shooting-set?
Big props to Scott for keeping the plastic table industry kicking
And being kicked
Between Scott and Buffalo Bills fan business is booming in the folding table industry.
He goes through tables like coffee filters over there!
Why is it so funny? The boy knows his way around those things lol
I know, him and banquets.
I think Scott has a destructive nature! I am very impressed at how strongly the bolt//locking mechanism held up. I'd assume Marlins would fare as well. I had thought the bolt and locking mechanism would have failed under such intense pressure. It serves to bolster confidence in the strength of lever actions! Very impressive and entertaining! I wonder what the results would have been without the squib load. Might have survived more (or less) intact.
I wish he hadn’t put the squib in as well.
When that camera at the beginning got destroyed and you spit everywhere! that was so awesome. I am laughing so hard right now.
That camera getting shot and scott spitting the drink out had me in stitches 🤣 the intros are superb big man
I haven’t laughed that hard in quite a while.
Absolutely right. When I lose it, my wife of 51 years says, “you must be watching that crazy guy from Kentucky again.”
@@steveperry3538haha. Congrats on 50+ btw man!
Seriously! Scott, your intros just keep getting better and better. Between this one and the pen gun...Great stuff!🤣🤣🤣
That's commitment, since he could have just used editing to make it look like he shot the camera instead of actually obliterating one.
It still amazes me that he turned a freak accident that nearly killed him into a recurring series on his channel that's one of my favorites
And the unexpected catastrophic failures he catches on video...
I was actually thinking the same thing while watching this video. And then a thought occurred to me: I wonder if making these failure videos causes Scott to have flashbacks?
Cheats death and laughs at it
Kentucky Ballistics is just one long running PSA on what not to do.
@Tom C that's all you can do.
Know a guy who had an angle gringer explode and nick his jugular and jammed his pinky in it all the way to the ER while driving.
He laughs about it now and reminds folks to not modify the guards on grinders and wear an actual face shield instead of just a pair of safety glasses.
Thank you Scott for bellowing "that's a spicy meatball" as randomly as possible. I have spit my Monster not only all over my monitors and keyboard. But also... on the cat sleeping on my desk!
I love your optimism. This one hurts. Always wanted a 45-70 Henry All Weather more than anything. Never had the opportunity or funds to drop.
There’s no way this series is financially sustainable, but you do it anyway for content for us. Bless you Scott
The sponsorships he gets on the channel make him alot. The sponsors pay a crazy amount of money sometimes, so I think he'll be fine eh ahah
You would be suprised. A henery like that is around $1000-1200 and a 1 million view video gets around $5000 plus whatever he gets from his sponsors. He can also likely get a good deal from the manufacturers for showing their products too and likely wont pay a lot more then cost ontop of a large tax writeoff.
Expensive yes, but he still makes more then enough to at least break even on most of these. Doesnt lessen how much i apprecate him doing it and envy him a bit for being able to do so.
This dude does this because he loves this. His wife. I'm sure has many a look thrown his way spending all this money :)
He does it because his serbu rn 50 blew up and almost killed him. Now he blows up guns to see how they would affect a person.
@@skunky1-1 I know about Scott’s accident, I was talking about how since gun channels almost never get monetized and idk how much sponsorships give him, I thought there was no way he even breaks even financially
This man single-handedly keeps the folding picnic table industry in business
Insert "Obligatory I Think You Should Leave -Drivers Ed scetch reference" here.
How many tables you break now
@@dogishappy0 bruh wtf is that joke
And frat houses
@@krikex314 Cheaper by the Dozen I always say know what I Mean Gene.
Scott, as usual I enjoyed your informative, interesting, humorous, and family-friendly video. Keep up the good work.
Thank you for demonstrating why we follow safety rules!
I feel like Scott has an addiction to blowing up guns at this point 🤦🏻♂️😂
What’s a little more shrapnel gonna really do cmonnn. Lol
I have an addiction to him blowing guns up too
No, it’s revenge.
I feel like hes trying to show that "any gun" would give him those injuries but so far its still just the rn 50
As long as he's not holding them.
BIG UP to Henry … that bolt not flying out the back at that pressure is remarkable
I was thinking the same.
don't think Henry is going to attempt or try to attempt to fix that because that is massive major catastrophic malfunction
Love his reactions to his own skits! 😂
Damn it, don't do the explosion trick again! I jumped!
Exactly ......... same here !!
Water out the nose when you shot that camera in the intro 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣. I love your content man, very informative and at the same time lots of fun to watch!
Lets all take a moment to appreciate that Scott has been going out of his way, spending who knows how much money, on these projects.
Perfectly good and well functioning guns : what did we do to deserve this ?
And making even more money. Lol
that barrett alone yeesh
The "guns go boom" series is his most viewed aside from his accident... hes spending a small fraction of what hes earning. Between $20-$30 per 1k views just for CZcams ad revenue and then any sponsorship or brand deal pay on top of that, so maybe as much as $50-60 per 1K view & they all have at least 2-10 million views.....
He getting paid don't worry
Every time Scott, every time. You always get me with the explosion.
Me too. I know it’s coming, but I jump every time.
Not gonna lie, my soul left my body for a second
It's all going to be okay, he put a thumb in it!
Watching on my phone with the sound in the car stereo...Scott had me cussing.
I am so glad you did this video, I have been wanting to see it for a long time.
Love all my Henry's and you showed how great they are. Well done Scott!
As a guy who shoots lever-actions almost exclusively, I can't deny that I cried a little watching that slow-mo.
I'm man enough to admit that.
That was me with his desert eagle that was actually Herrerras' 🤣
As a guy who'd love to be able to afford to own a Henry in .45-70, I cried a LOT at the sight of that kaboom. That, and imagining what a shooter's forearm and hand might look like coming away from that disaster. I'm thinking shredded taco meat. Major gore, pain galore, and long time sore.
This was a hard one two wash my favorite rifles are the 45-70s but it is good information to have love your the work you do bud
I am normally not jumpy but you got me with loading that lead cartridge😮. Good show! 😅
Same.
I knew it was coming, but he got me anyway. I know I'm not alone. Well played Scott, well played.
Near pissed in my pants when he did that 😂😂😂😂
That did hurt a little seeing that beautiful lever action meet it's end, but all in the name of science! Love this series Scott, keep em coming!
yup. I also had to google image a 45-70 because I saw the loading gate on the side, and was like, "hey! Is that a marlin?! thats not a henry with the side gate!" then he whipped out the earlier version I was familiar with.
I wonder if the original non gated versions will call a premium in the future... The all weather in particular being a later product fewer of them were made before the changeover (one less now)
The best Program ever! You rock Bro!
Amazing that the bolt / locking lugs held together. Strong action!!! You could name him Henrolean Blownapart!🤣
Hey Scott, just wanted to say thanks for the content! My nearly 3 year old son absolutely loves watching you and I can confidently put your videos on without worrying about him learning new words. Again thanks!
Nice 😂
“New words”
I like it
😂😂😂
Brandon Herrera is really good for kids to watch too
Plus Scott teaches valuable life lessons, like how eggplants are the worst.
Scott: almost leaves us, turns his accident into an informative series of videos 👏🏼 You da man
I have watched a lot of your vids and this one's intro is one of the funniest - I had coffee down my nostrils now was laughing THAT hard...
Brother every time you post one of these I worry about you. Makes me watch the whole video every time lol been with you since day. Have a good day KB
I'm getting used to seeing heads survive these tests more-or-less intact, but I've just done a massive rethink on what that actually means: from memory Scott's head looked fine after the .50 BMG blew up, but one bit of shrapnel in his neck and it was nearly lights out.
Well he did get some serious damage around his eye if I remember right
To be fair, he did get a black eye from it. Still though~
Paul Mauser (yes, THAT mauser) lost an eye in an accident involving an exploding rifle/out of battery detonation
Mightuv been a dirt-dobber.
Always remember..........check for dirt-dobbers and check your neck. 👍
@@nef36 black eye plus temporary eye damage. He lost sight in it for a little bit
This one hurts quite a bit for me too, one of my dream rifles getting destroyed is sad but at least it's done in the name of science! Great video as always KB! 👍🏻💪🏼
Barely science.
Henry is trash
@@alanrogs3990 the squid makes it little less science but the exploding gun footage could still be called science as its showing damage to weapon and possibly you
Well I made it to 2 minutes. Dipshits!
@@alanrogs3990 Physics is a natural science. Every rifle or firearm destruction video is literally nothing but demonstrating how resilient a rifle/ rifle barrel/ firearm can be until it is over pressured or is under catastrophic malfunction or due to a squib lodged in the barrel perhaps. This is Physics, this is science.
I’d love to see an ak47 chambered 762x39 tested. Just found this channel this morning and I’ve been watching all morning. Great stuff Scott! Thank you
I know you’ve already done two 50cals but I think it’d be interesting to see how on of the other popular entry level 50s would hold up in the form of the Noreen ULR. Having such a simple and sturdy breach bolt design with thicker lugs, chamber, and barrel than any other 50 on the market as it gives no regard for its weight makes it interesting to see if it can handle pressures that would blow up other 50s.
he tested one, not on a dummy, but himself, and not on purpose.
No joke that spit take in the beginning was one of the best acted spit takes I've ever seen. 😂
Agreed
I've seen it suggested before that you should slowly ramp up the chamber pressures. It's one thing to see assured destruction, but what about people who get hot reloads that are only slightly over allowable chamber pressures? It'd be nice to see on some guns what to look out for with rounds that would take a few before catastrophic failure, much like your initial 50 blowup with the slap rounds. I have to imagine that some of the rounds fired weakened/strained key parts of your RN50 before it finally gave out.
That's exactly what I was going to say too!
@@ElationProductions
Me too.
Good idea. As somebody who handloads I’d love to see some content like that.
because most of that stuff is going to be a minor problem. split cases, cracked bolts, actions that won't cycle, and bulged barrels. will end a shooting session and make a gunsmith have some extra money but not likely to send someone to an ER.
I second this
That was very impressive.😮
I’ve always appreciated the elegance of lever actions, clearly they’re also very safe!
Very safe unless you don't like to be called stumpy. I see the potential of one hand being blown off along with some fingers of the other hand.
@@orlock20 yea, that front handgaurd would do some real damage. I also wonder if a chain detonation might be possible had the tube been loaded.
It’s not that elegant with that optic on it, just doesn’t look right to me.
@@tenofprime perhaps, I suppose that depends on whether or not the rounds in the tube were flat nosed/HP rounds or if they were pointed/ballistic tips.
As a 45-70 lover, this one hurt
What game you hunt with it? Do they drop on the spot?
It hurts more for me, because i can't have guns.
@@ollikoskiniemi6221 Anything short of a whale! 38 inches of penetration in a bull moose (with shattering the shoulder).
@@nigelqflarp damn I was looking for something more powerful than 308 for moose but was turned off by the fact that 45-70 is much slower and doesn't actually seem to have more energy, but I guess that's the mass that does that.
@@ollikoskiniemi6221 what about 30-30 or 30.06?
I’ve watched this video several times and I still can’t get over it.That WAS a great rifle.
Im watching your videos about 2 years now from iran and i love your videos keep it up👍
RIP camera. Love that even after racking the lever a bunch of times, it still went off.
Safety first ! The monster flying everywhere was my reaction as well, with a few more curse words !
Tube magazines are notorious for rounds hanging up in the tube.
Always thump the gun to shake things loose,just in case.
The intro to this video is another reason why you don’t aim at anything you don’t intend to shoot. I love that.
Safety sally
Safety Sally here doesnt understand guns can be unloaded 🙄
@@miamislice3280 People with unloaded guns shoot stuff all the time
@@servicetrucker5564 You have exactly one braincell and its misfiring.
@@miamislice3280 So you don’t check a gun someone hands you even if they say it’s empty? Good luck with that
"Just put a thumb in it".
Glad you're still with us.
So sad to see but also so interesting..love the Henry 45/70..would love an octagon barrelled one❤❤
I've never burst out laughing at one of your intros, but this one..... well done. Well done
Here's an idea. Have you ever considered loading spitzers in a tube magazine and trying to get them to go off under recoil?
I would suspect that you'd likely get them to go off more often with cycling the action, as the rounds slammed into the stop at the back of the tube... All in all, not something I would want to try with real ammo. I would think such a thing would be better tested with a dummy cartridge (the type with holes drilled in the sides) that has a live primer.
Of course, i would also prefer that such a thin be tested by someone else, because a large rifle primer is pretty energetic when it goes off.
I’ve seen someone try this but they didn’t use a gun as you couldn’t see what happened, it did work in the end though but only with pointy bullets
Taofledermaus tested this and nothing happened
I've always suspected the spritzer bullets detonating primers under recoil was fudd nonsense.
@@Tomyironmane a friend of mine did it out of ignorance in my marlin 3030 and nothing happened but a few minor scratches on the primers
"that's a spicy meatball" i wasn't ready for it I'm crying laughing.
Serious and comedy mixed, Scott is the BEST. I have a Guide Gun 45-70 and watched with interest because I handload for it.
Scooter shooting the camera got me!!! I really appreciate this video because my favorite gun at the moment is a Henry 45-70. It is good to see how the receiver handles the extreme pressure. Makes me more comfortable even though I am shooting hand loads on the light side.
You should do bullpups next. Im sure a catastrophic failure on those guns would probably give your the second worst injuries, 2nd only to the .50 cal.
Hahaha, when he shot the camera in the beginning I lost it! LMAO! That was hilarious!
You really got me ! I'm sitting in my car, in the driveway, it's dark and quiet watching you be you and then BOOM! Now I gotta check my shorts Scott!
Scott, you get me every time with those explosions. I'll never learn, but, on the bright side, I'm still breathing so I think my bypass surgery worked.
Scott’s intros are hands down the best of all gun tubers😂
7:07 your sense of humor never fails to get a good chuckle out of me 😂
I love your video Scott but this one was different I couldn't get the past the first five minutes without laughing 🤣🤣
Scott always manages to entertain hello from Canada 🇨🇦
Sooooooooooooooooooo true!
Watch out, it won’t take longe before trudeu bans gun videos too.
@@retonman7492 lmao
@@retonman7492 can't expect much less from Fidel Castro's son
I'm surprised your communist prime Minister allows you guys to watch gun videos. Lmao yall got a problem on your hands with that one, just like we have a problem here
As a veteran living on disability I always shed a little tear when a weapon gets destroyed. It takes me forever to save enough to buy one. Still fun to watch though.👍
IK
Thank you for your service and sacrifice. I get ya big time on destroying weapons.
When guns get destroyed, kittens cry.
Stop making kittens cry.
Scott had a good time at the range with this nice lever action gun :) Thanx for showing us the result :)
🤣🤣 love your videos entertaining and you teach us stuff everyday much love from Texas buddy
Scott I love this series and how you've become more focused on information and safety but you keep destruction and comedy so it's fun to watch.
Loving this series so much. This episode was awesome. I don't know what hurts more, seeing the camera at the beginning of the video get shot, the tables breaking, or the gun blowing up. Either way, love the video as always Scott. Hope you have a great rest of the week.
The tables breaking just from being flipped in this video just shows they don't make em like they used to. On the flip side though....I bet them breaking caused Scott much joy
I just bought a Henry. Watching one get blown up while they're so hard to find is rough. However, based on this video, that gun is built like a fricken tank. To have the receiver hold together so well with that kind of pressure. Good lord.
Even though the first 50 Cal explosion was a complete accident, this series didn’t disappoint
usually i dont get scered, but when you load that bullet, you got me. 😂 And yes, i sub. 😂
Hey, Scott. I would like to see what would happen if a black powder Kentucky Long Rifle failed. Either through overloading the powder, or through the mistaken use of modern powders. How about a video for each?. Safely keep up the good work!
Another vote for a black powder test, please. I have long heard that if a rifle will withstand normal charges of black powder then it will withstand any charge of black powder that can be loaded into it. And I have long wondered if that was the case.
Iraq veteran did one
czcams.com/video/en384qVqrug/video.html
@@onyex9233 yeah, well, his videos aren't as entertaining.
I'd vote for that as well, under condition that there is a test shot that is not designed to guaranteed catastrophic failure. So muzzleloader tested with charge that should give performance equivalent to BP cartridges.
Scott’s always the goat when it comes to sketchy experiments with firearms. I’d try a .22lr or 10 gauge next. Love you’re content Scott!!😉
This one hurt. Personal favorite
When you shot the camera and then spit all over the bench I couldn't stop laughing forever🤣
Scott's video intros are always top tier and ridiculously hilarious
It looked like he surprised himself with how much of that drink stayed under his hat and hitting him in the face. lol
and this one was one of the best, i watched a couple times!!! hillarious.
@@robertsimpson1640
Totally agree mate. All Scott's intros are great but this and the one where T'rex attacks him with a table are 2 of the best.
😎👍
@William Tell Your comment made me laugh and smile, so yeah, I guess I am easily pleased and amused. Carry on, Captain Obvious.
As much as I like to see what happens, a tear comes to my eye seeing any gun destroyed.
I've probably watched the intro 50 times lol
Almost fell from my chair. Thank You Kentucky Ballistics.
4:58 i almost died💀
I really appreciate you doing this. It's didn't go as I thought it would, at all. It hurt to see such a beautiful gun go out like that but in my opinion worth it for the knowledge. Stay safe.
Bish 🤣😂😂 that explosion after you put the bullet made my heart go boom 💥 😂😂😂 my body literally went omg 😂🤣🤣
Outstanding opening...
I'd love a "Folding table appreciation video" where Scott treats the tables comically with up-most care, but he'll probably couldn't resist the urge to throw it across the range, which is understandable and why we love him.
He's tough on tables. I have to wonder if he has a container full of them.
This. Valentine's or April 1 should be him taking the tables out for a nice eggplant parmesan.
Sounds like a decent April fools days video
Love the intro of Scooter trying to get into guns 🤣
THAT... was just dirty! :) I never jump and I just about came out of my freaking skin. The headphones helped. Well done!
Scott you are a King😂💪
I just love how your gun failure tests have progressively got more and more engineered with each one!! 🤣 absolutely fantastic Scott!!!
Going to be honest that boom when loading the round definitely got me 🤣
You got me. 4:59 gave me a damn fine jump scare.
Thank you!
I've been constipated for over a week; however, I dumped the wagon at 4:58!
Gonna go out on a Limb and say that if your hand was resting under the gun to hold it steady. You would have some serious injuries to the forearm and hands. I love these Guns Exploding videos and I’m extremely happy you made it out of yours realistically speaking Safe! Nice video as always!
I've always heard one of the strongest actions was a Ruger No. 1 . would love to see what it takes to make one of those go boom!
Way too expensive to blow up for fun.
@@mikebolton3816 when has that ever stopped him? 😂
@@MarshallMims your right! But, it would be a shame. I'd really like one in 7.62x39, and they are real hard to find. They didn't make many.
I mean, why not blow up one of his $10k elephant double rifles then too? Lol
Wow that was awesome !! The intro, that is.
Man Scott. Just watched the 50 cal. Explode and basically almost take ur torso with it. Caps off to u brother,no pun intended,hahaha. Glad ur still kicking man. Love ur vids and table flippin skills. Definitely keep it going brother just no dug outs and hand grenades..
At least it wasn't another cooking with a scooter. I still have nightmares about the soda, cheetos and pumpkin pie 😅
I know he always does a squib in the barrel with these tests but I wonder what would happen without it, like would it be as severe or would it maybe be just fine
It would still mess it up pretty bad it just wouldn’t do what It did to the barrel. Whenever he had that hot 50 cal explode on him there was no squib everything in the rear exploded and the barrel didn’t.
The same thing would happen in this case.
With 200k psi, I would imagine the results would be similar. But there’s no way to know that without testing it. As well as the bolt and receiver held up (I was impressed), it very well may have just bulged the barrel in front of the receiver. The squib simply ensures failure.
More MULLETS...! We gotta see more great mullets in action...!!! Hahaha, thanks for the entertainment...! Keep up your awesomeness and don't forget to compliment someone today...
i expected the end of the barrel to blow but not so much it destroyed everything. I would as others have said test a bullpup, i own a keltech rdb 308 bullpup and wanna know what would happen with that particular model. it has a heavy plate on top of the chamber to protect the user, but idk after this one it may be a huge hair cut situation...
thankyou for the most interesting series, and thank you for turning around after your accident. glad you are still with us and teaching us as well as entertaining.
You give a whole new meaning to boom stick. Henry 45-70 is on my wish list.
Thank you for all that you do.
