This thing is absolutely ridiculous! Do you want to see more? Regardless I hope you enjoyed the video and thanks for watching!
I want more
I did I love your videos
I bet this thing would be a good deer pistol 🤣
Funny😂😊
🤩🤩🤩 notified in 20 second of the upload!
Scott, I just want to say that it's amazing you can make jokes about your neck/scar. While no one is denying what happened, you didn't let it define you, and kept on. Even to this day, that always encourages me and gives me something to look to as an example.
The skits at the beginning of videos make me smile. Every. Damn. Time.
This comment is so true that i just cant explain it better
Thats Dirty Harry,s line of is it Harry Potter's 😄🇨🇦
I was just thinking, after what he went through, I wouldn't think any less of him if he got armored up every time he shot the big stuff. He's got nothing to prove in my book.
What you mean he didn't let it define him? He's made it his whole personality, lol
I love how it's now lore-accurate that Scott's scar works like a large caliber Harry Potter warning system
Spidey Sense
“How hot are those rounds bubba” 😂
Ahh
Expecto eggplanto patronumagnum!
You know the funny thing is, I cannot go by the egg plant display at the grocery store without an annoying thing happening in my mind. It's just automatic.
The Chrono shot had me rolling!😂😂!😂😂😂
Everything chrono that has made it to this range. Has met the same fate 😂 sometimes its the first round, sometimes it gets a couple 😂
Same bro. I cried laughing
Me too! I saw it coming. As soon as he pulled the trigger I thought "He's gonna shoot the speed thing..." and there it went. Hilarious. Are they expensive?
🤣 "She be kickin" with the "the more you know" tune got me. Love the information and the humor man.
kinda misused meme though.
I read your comment the moment the video got to that part and it was the best😂😂
With all the zombies destroyed and the second personality growing out of Scott's shoulder, I'm convinced this entire channel is just an homage to The Evil Dead series. Army of Darkness level of humor.
YES LOL
"This is my Boomstick!"
I'm bad Ash...and you're little goody two shoes!!
"that'll teach ya!!!"
Groovy.
Scott shooting the 500 S&W magnum one-handed with his left hand and hitting the targets is rather impressive
Yes, I was noticing myself. What is the price? And she'll cost? Since they have the equipment to measure speed. Is there anything that could measure the pressure of the bullet hitting the target.?
Yeah…… recoil only affects follow up shots accuracy, if recoil affected general firing, guns would be very close to useless.
How a man makes a 500 magnum look small is something only he can understand.
Getting the round off accurately isn't that difficult. Hanging on to the thing after it happens is more difficult.
i also thought that its funny seeing how someone treating 500 S&W like side gun wich you can shoot with only your left hand)
11:51 I like how you could see the life fade from his eyes😂
Came here to say this lmao
The level of trigger discipline he displays is insane...one-handed, weak hand with a .500 S&W Mag and he hits what he's shooting at. Simply amazing.
Well said. I thought the same thing.
That's because Scott is a real man. 😆 🤣 😂 All joking aside, Scott is tough, he's a strong son-of-a-gun. They call his daddy Pistol 🔫 so that makes Scott a Son-of-a-gun. 😅😂😅😂.
Scott is going to end up with a 4bore pistol and wonder why his wrists are broken. But can we all take a moment to thank him with the expense time and effort that goes into getting his hands on these large bore firearms and the rarity of the ammo. Thank you so much Scott, i thourghly enjoy the content. Not that you read this but it helps with the algorithm
It's already a record year: Scott just tanked the Bushwacker with one hand... stout guy, he is!
Or with a punt pistol.
I'm honestly surprised he doesn't already own the "Good Samaritan" from Hellboy.
Sorry I just put a similar comment up before I saw yours
I absolutely lost it when he obliterated that chronograph machine. "We'll say 'inconclusive'". 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I was surprised that it survived the first shot!😂
He's sort of got a "destruction budget" now, more or less.
I just wish he would do at least one read of the 400 grain round
We knew he was going to shoot it.
I felt it in my wallet.
I love how the case extractor slams back to the cylinder from all the energy leaving the muzzle. That's just incredible!
> Picks up a face shield, helmet, and body armor to test a 500 super magnum round.
> No hearing protection whatsoever.
It's actually impressive how you can see the difference between the two calibers. 500 Magnum throws globs of stuff all over the place, 500 Bushwhacker skips the liquid phase and aerosolizes everything. Freaking wild.
Scott's voice when he put the helmet on...oh my god I could not stop cracking up. Not to mention he looks like Kentucky Lightyear with that helmet. 🤣🤣🤣
Kentucky Lightyear is amazing.
LmOooo 😂😂😂😂 that’s too funny
Kentucky LightYear ….
To Infirmary and Beyond
New T-Shirt idea there

I have just three things to teach: simplicity, patience, compassion. These three are your greatest treasures.
Dude, your sense of humor is awesome.
Literally NEVER seen Scott so kitted put IN MY LIFE!
I’d do the same if I had gone through what he did lol
"I see why Garand Thumb dresses like this all the time." (6:25) 😅
I'd be wearing triple that 😂
Strong people make as many mistakes as weak people. Difference is that strong people admit their mistakes, laugh at them, learn from them. That is how they become strong.
FAF when Scott comes back into frame with all the gear on!!! Keep it up Scott, love your videos!!
"That is why i have been avoiding this revolver. But you all keep requesting it."
Man of the people ✌️
I'm glad someone finally addressed this critical need in the shooting community. The .500 magnum is a woefully under-powered cartridge which puts the user at risk from all manner of threats. Kudos to you sir for finally address this!
That would be Keith and James from TII. And I agree. I got my hands on Bushwhacker serial number 7.
@@thenanobrain dang what great a number 👍 in 20-30 years from now , that sucker is going to be worth a fortune , that's if Jesus doesn't return by then 👍
i realize this is sarcasm but seriously dont give them ideas
Yes, precious few of our compatriots truly appreciate the magnitude of the Furby threat had the Bushwhacker not left the production lines in time. Had they missed the deadline by even a few weeks, we might all be speaking Furby right now.
Scott, since you are the foremost expert on determining the level of Kentucky certified destruction provided by various things that go bang.(among other things) , I have a request.
I just bought one of those “popcorn cannons” used to puff corn and rice. It goes bang and launches its contents with a prodigious amount of steam when used to puff grain. I got to thinking about the possibility of mounting it on a rifle stock and using it for home defense. Your unique input would be appreciated.
I feel so great about this.. I feel so good.. lol thanks for the good laughs and awesome gun videos. You're the man.
We recognize that case! 😅 It was difficult finding something that would fit such a massive handgun. Glad you enjoyed shooting it! Definitely the most impressive revolver we've had in our shop and we'll be getting more of them.
That is why we love you. Handling the big stuff like a G. The only man that is 50 Cal resistant.
With how much he love 4 bore. Yeah, I still want to see him do .950 JDJ but that's tough to get and use a lot
@@Kamikazi91127 I doubt he will ever find one
@@Kamikazi91127so funny story-
The eyes closing on the Furby had me.
Needed "Ave Maria" playing.
I'll never forget that black and white one opening its eyes to the muzzle of Scott's .500S&W an instant before it was blown to bits. Gah, creepy little things
Haven't watched one of your vids since that thing happened. Love to see you still being you. Keep on keepin on, friend.
Scott..... You need to audition for movie roles. I absolutely love your acting! Thank you for making your channel kif friendly as well. You sir are a breath of fresh air in the entertainment industry! Also, I had a crazy idea while watching this episode! What if you invite Larry the Cable Guy to come play Kentuky Roulett with you!!! That would be AWESOME!
Remember when Black Rifle Coffee Company made that low budget zombie flick with like 90% of the cast being GWOT veteran actors?
In 1978 Guns & Ammo ran a story on a massive revolver built by Bruce Woods. He used a shortened 460 Weatherby Magnum case and called it the .457 Super Magnum. If memory serves me correctly, he was getting rifle level performance out of this hand cannon. I think the revolver itself was called the Woods White Horse Magnum. He also made one in 45-70. I may still have the magazine in my collection.
45-70 revolvers give me mad fallout new vegas vibes
Where may I find info on the.457 super mag
Why? I can stand some recoil but I don't understand why people like punishing themselves. Maybe it's because I started out hunting with a muzzleloader but I'm a fan of placement over insane power. I'd rather have a gun in which I can accurately place a shot every time versus something that has ridiculous power. More middle of the line something like a 6.5-300 vs a 416. Plenty of power and easier to shoot. Like McManus talked about in his books I don't need a gun that will allow me to clap my shoulders. BTW if you haven't read those do yourself a favor and pick them up, they are hilarious. Laughed so hard reading on in a doctors office once that everyone moved to the other side of the waiting area from me. Still makes me chuckle today and that was 30 years ago.
@@JoshuaFare I suggest a Google search. As far as I know it was a one-off, though he did offer various caliber options in his custom handguns. Mind you, this was well over 40 years ago.
@@Parents_of_Twins I believe this channel exists for entertainment purposes (and to make money for its creator). I treat it the way I treated Capstick's books on Africa. It is not to be taken too seriously. Given the price of ammunition these days, I rarely shoot anything remotely exotic. I do prefer heavy-for-caliber projectiles, but not punishing recoil. I don't shoot creatures that are a half mile or further away. Bullet placement and penetration are and will always remain king and queen.
The most impressive thing to me was the way you handled that S&W. One handed, weak hand, barely flinched. Gains giving returns. Impressive.
looked like robocop
His weak hand is almost like my leg in width. He's a unit
It's shaking his helmet ! !
Well you dont know what ammo was in S&W. When you shoot 500 s&w you can go from plinking rounds like Federal Fusion and up to bombs like underwood 440/500 grain...
Thanks, Scott! Amazing firearm! Hopefully the manufacturer will release some data on that big boy.
Nothing but respect for Scott, he never stopped, and now he is on top.
hey scott, if it makes you feel any safer, the 500 bushwacker is based on the .375 ruger, which itself is capable of handling 62k psi, meanwhile 500SW does around 60k, and usually speaking whenever you taper/neck down a cartridge you increase the pressure when compared to a straight wall, so the 500 BW might have a chamber pressure equal if not even lower than those 62k
as a side note, that cartridge is absoletly ridiculous, i'm so happy you brought it on the channel😂
375 ruger??? I'd hafta research that but, right off the bat that doesn't seem right at all. 375 ruger is is a bigger parent case and is necked. This bushwacker is a straight wall, and 50 cal. More along the lines of a 458 Lott as parent case
the brass case is not the problem... its the chamber that supports it that is.
TII does say it retains the operating pressure of the .500 S&W, which as you said is 60,000 psi (though most factory loads stay at or below 50,000).
@@koreyhayden1368 yeah... idk, there's not much information out there, but the 375 has the exact same size up to the neck, and 500 BW brass could be made by fire-forming it, in fact prior to having dedicated brass for it, the cartridges were made like that
@@renaissanceman5847 i know, but usually speaking, the firearm will be designed to operate at the pressure of the cartridge safely, that's why it's often not recomended to use very hot pistol ammo in handguns not designed for it, and the reason you shouldn't use 357 mag in 38 special, but you can shoot 38 in a 357 for instance, even though almost every pistol nowadays can handle at least +P
Those 500 BW casings would be a perfect candidate for reloading with black powder. The chamber pressure would drop significantly AND you could shoot MUCH heavier bullets. PLUS, the muzzle flash of flaming black powder fire balls from that epic brake might look pretty cool as well.
But black powder wont break your wrist. And to this point i am very sure scott is not shooting for the sake of shooting but to test how far his wrist can go
@@grumbazor depending on how much heavier the bullet will be the recoil can go from controllable to being worse
basicaly you will turn your gun in to a canon)))
So much myth and legend about black powder. Try research before assumptions.
Also will probably foul the gun something awful 😂😂
Check out the slow motion video on the 500 bushwacker when you shot the glue, the ejection rod moved back about halfway with the recoil! Thank you for the entertaining content, keep up the good work Scott!
Gotta be honest, the medievil flail at the end is both A.) Something I didn't see you owning and B.) Something that totally makes sense. Glad you took the extra precautions with this. Looking forward to future videos 🤣🤣
The "She be kickin" still shot needs to be a wallpaper!
I read this as the frame popped up
T shirt😂
By far the Furby shot was the best one yet. That's slow-mo was insane. The way it's eyes closed and the hair blew back; that was really cool.
That was satisfying. My eyes closed and my hair blew back too. If you know what I mean...
Honestly can't help being impressed by the furbys ability to stay in one piece after being blasted by some of the biggest rounds in existance
it almost looked real
It's so anti climactic, after watching things that go through right proper hydro shock, that this little fur ball just yeets off relatively unscathed. I mean, I perfectly understand how the physics work, but intuitively if a 5lbs can on peas gets obliterated then a fistful of fur should get disassembled at the molecular level.
I was going to comment this!! 😅
I didn't see any hearing protection. Do you have any hearing left?
He has plugs in. He takes them out in other videos.
"Be strong little table!". (as it wobbles under the weight of the water jugs) that cracked me up? 🤣
Scott, if you get a bottle of food colouring or something and pour it into the wound channel in the ballistic gel it would make the wound channel much more visible. Plus it would look cool.
I've never seen that but it would be neat
@@archerelms I’ve suggested it to a bunch of the gun tube guys but none of them have tried it.
I’m sure it’s easier to see in person, but sometimes they say the wound track is “crazy” in a piece of ballistic gel but in the video it’s barely visible.
Another idea I had is using something as a probe. When they are trying to see if a bullet went all the way through a ballistic dummy, they could just poke a stick or something into the hole and see where it comes out the back of the target.
I've never seen muzzle flash from a cylinder Gap like that before. That's amazing. It's almost as amazing as the level of guts Scott has to keep doing this and making jokes about his own injury I got mad respect for this dude
I'm reminded just how great the .500 S&W is as a lever gun round. The Bushwacker clearly has a bright future in that application, too.
This is a very fun video to watch....Thank you
And they say America has no culture.
They say that out of envy.
US doesn't have culture in term like UK.

They don't even have ownership rights. They're irrelevant.
I love how the furby closed his eyes right when he got shot like he literally died😂😂😂
I was dying from that 🤣
Furby was like, "Thank you Jesus."
that was like shocking footage 🤣🤣🤣
Best explosion vid ever lol! love it. Sitting at work stupidly grinning and laughing the whole vid!
Scott, I absolutely enjoy every video you make. Do you think you will ever make a video about how many tables it takes to stop a bullet? Ive always wondered how many it takes. Would make for an amazing video as usual! Thanks for the entertainment Scott!
Man got nothing but respect. This man out here educating and entertaining us and risking his life for it after already almost losing it.
I love how Scott although he had a near death accident he manages to makes jokes out of it lol
That's all you can do
What a fantastic showman, you are!!!
That intro😂😂😂 Scott, I gotta say, you’re a beast. Love your content!
Seriously guys:
How many times can we really watch Scott do the same thing? Shooting cans of pudding and nacho cheese? Dinosaur suits and water jugs? Dad jokes and broken tables? "You got jammed."?
Answer: Yes.
I wanna know why he hates chronographs so much
Is the .500 Bushwhacker your new home defense weapon?
Lmao, was looking for a good chronograph comment 🤣
Every time. Duh.
@@cdrkennon Hell no, I'm not trying to blow out all my drywall.
Will never stop hoping that KB gets his hands on a .950 JDJ, and the double-barrel 2 bore rifle that Forgotten Weapons showcased on his channel a few years back.
id love to see that, but it would be more inline with the punt gun then the other big bore safari rifles as the jdj isnt really shoulder fireable (weight)
Me and my cat love to watch your videos. She just sits on my head and we watch your videos for hours. Great content keep it up!
scott remember when you had all the extra ballistic dummy heads well I would rlly love to see a video like that again but you do them from weakest to strongest and show the bullet. I love watching your videos especially the 600 overkill keep up the good work and putting out good content (your intros are legendary)
He actually shot OVER the chrono?!?!
I’m shook…. I’ll need a minute.
Also, thank you for actually grabbing that info for us!
scotts shoulder when he shoots one handed: "for tonight, we dine in hell!"
I gotta say that hollow point on the bushwacker really made that cavitation bubble pop pretty bright on collapse lol like a firecracker 🧨 (evil grin on my face)
This video had me in tears, well done!!😂
He did almost every Kentuckyism. The table flip, the chronograph destruction, the eggplant in the chipper, the nacho cheese...
There was no watermelon-time, though. 😢
Almost all of them
And since we didn't get a jam, we missed the "you got jammed" meme either! lol... His viewers def look forward to his cut scenes lol.
I was going to say water melon time, too! My favorite water melon time "lead-in" is when an alarm clock suddenly appears and begins ringing🤣 ⏰ 🍉

I love that the ejector rod goes halfway back when it fires. Insane recoil.

@@clothar23 It's true....
Oh! We definitely need the 500 Bushwhacker vs Ballistic Zombie Head. Very entertaining as always. Keep it up Scott!
That hand canon definitely has some serious recoil! If you look closely at the slow mo footage of it being fired yul see the ejector rod sliding back almost fully. That's serious kick!
The table flip walk in, and the Midsentence cadence, tone and even register changed, Right at "And you' (change happens here!)re watching Kentucky..."
Love you Scott, thank you for using your experience as a evidence of what working on our mental health can look like. That was undeniably one of hte most F'ed up things I've seen, can't imagine experiencing it. Your excitement to start the episode is always awesome. Wish you well, from your Northern neighbouring country,

11:53 Oh my f... god. 😂 Amazing and brilliant.
that Furby death was dramatic as heck! the way its eyes closed as it flew off 🤣🤣
Just watched a older Paul Harrell video of a 30-30 handgun. Can't believe you haven't had one in your channel.... You have to get one to honor Paul!!!
Scott dose have a 30-30 BFR but only shot it once about 6 years ago on camera. Don't know if he put the video up again.
Me thinking to myself: "Hey, is this the first time we've seen a chronograph NOT get destroyed in a Kentucky Ballistics video!?"
8:07 "Nevermind..."
I love it... a rough tough dude, in body armor, with a monster hand canon and lights it off with "okay-dokay" you are definitely a real hoot :)
The way that furby blinked as it took that round, had me feeling for it.
i love that the difference between magnum and bushwacker is the magnum throws the split cans yards into the air and the bushwacker just completely shreds them.
I can't ever remember seeing the ejector move under recoil like that. Scott is lucky to have survived.
I was thinking the Revolver may last a while. But that ejector rod won't!!
yeah, that's getting sketchy.
I don't think it's recoil causing the ejector rod to move backward. Inertia would keep it in place as the whole gun moves back.
I think it's the gas or pressure wave coming off the muzzle brake.
I’m less scared of the gun that the spiked ball and chain. The gun is sketchy but he has nearly hit himself on the backswing with the ball and chain so many times
first vid ive seen from you and gotta say love the energy . . . thanks for makin me laugh lolols
Bro... it's just miracle that you're alive...bless👊
3:59 the long or slow pause while spinning the chamber before declaring your comfort level was really assuring.
Ok you need to hear me out on this one! After shooting the glue you need to finish the arts and crafts segment by shooting bottles of that most hated of craft items... GLITTER!
The thing about glitter though is it is just tiny bits of plastic. I wouldn't like that stuff in the environment.
I just want to say how impressed I am at your skill from that distance using right and left single-handed. 😮
This is an awesome episode. Love the safety precautions. It's always eye opening because there are some things a regular person just wouldn't think about too much. To me, it's every bit as interesting as the guns themselves.
6:21 And you should feel cool in it. It's safe, and it's responsible. I have the same feeling with my motor bike gear. My bike might look cool, but equally awesome, is some quality gear.
Honorable people, treat danger with respect.
“Expand & Deliver” There’s a good slogan for a new merch line, Scott.
Pause
I have a BFR chambered in 50 Alaskan and the recoil is intense; as one writer described it as bringing your own severe weather pattern to the range. The cylinder was bored out to take a true 50 caliber bullet (.510) and the barrel is a PacNor with an integral muzzle break.
Safety first!
Great Video. Great editing. thx!
Wonder what your shooting range smells like in the summer lol
Your cut to the warning was HILARIOUS!
You gotta get Matt & Brandon to play roulette with your jars of condiments with that hand Artillery 🤣
Thank YOU, for saying cut-*RESISTANT.* People, advertisements, and commercials alike can never understand that nothing can be weather/rust/cut-proof, etc. Say, if a clothing was to be waterproof, the water will fall off the fabric (or whatever material it is), and not leave any traces behind on the clothing, basically stain-free. You're the best, Kentucky Ballistics! Happy shooting! Also, poor neck & shoulder XD
Nothing is truly waterproof (or anything proof), given enough pressure or time. If it can't stop a waterjet then it's still only resistant
When you shot that meter I fucking died laughing hahaha I couldn’t stop for minutes haha your awesome Scott!!
I have often asked myself "what if I'm going to dollar general to pick up my arbor day decorations, and I am accosted by 6 Elephants wearing body armor?" Well with this gun, I need no longer worry.
Found this in a very well written article.
From the standpoint of cartridge design, there is no question that the BFR is abundantly capable of housing a .530” diameter round operating at approximately 60,000 psi: it was engineered to do so for the .500 S&W
Replays of gel blocks being hit by heavy rounds are always a delight. The small explosions inside can be seen, puffs of smoke leaving out the entrance hole are always guaranteed, while the block itself is flipping around/doing somersaults.
That little explosion is called cavitation and it's vacuum pressure collapsing on itself, creating massive temperature spikes in the thousands. what's even crazier is that the Pistol Shrimp can produce that same thing with its wee little claw
I knew the number on the chronograph was high but what really sold me was how fast the bullet looked on the high speed camera! That thing just blinked into existence in the ballistic gel.
The slapping never gets old. Dunno why but it always makes me laugh 🤣🤣🤣
I love that Scott feels cool in all that gear because after all it's cool to be protected, safe, responsible, and most importantly alive when handling newtonic forces high enough to be included in a math question, lol
