The lore from garand thumb is better than most films produced in the past 3 years

Everytime Mike asks Micha to describe an item and Micah just says what he thinks about it. You can see Mike die a little everytime.

After seeing the RIDICULOUS penetration from that crazy fast twist, I really want to see this put through a battery of tests for barrier penetration. I'm talking sheet metal, windshields, solid wood door, plywood, exterior walls, even concrete block. Hell, toss in level 3a and level 3 body armor to the mix too. That would really drive home and give a great understanding of the real world penetration capabilities of this fascinating newer round.

Can we take a moment to appreciate how amazing the sound design was for the "Clever girl." scene from jurassic park, and how satisfying the sounds from loading the shots into the SPAS-12, to unfurling the stock was? That scene sticks out to me from every movie i've ever watched when it comes to satisfying and well thought out sound design. And kudos to you for refreshing that scene in my head.

Garand:"8.6 through 3 blocks, please stop." The 8.6 round :"How bout nooo" 😂
-
I would listen to you talk about (in anger) for 5 hours about the VA. Please hold them accountable, you have the platform
-
Cutting the weight of an big game rifle down that much is incredible. Imagine how much nicer a hunt will be without a dinosaur on your back.
-
I'm rooting so hard for 8.6 blackout. We need this cartridge, but I don't want to invest in a rifle until it's SAAMI spec'd and I know it'll be around for a while.
-
That is ridiculous. I’ve never seen a round have this much penetrative power in ballistics gel . It cuts through like genuine butter. Amazing.
-
The VA has screwed so many over. Thanks for shining more light on the situation.
-
Awesome introduction, as always! 😄 Not only is your content educational, but it is entertaining as well, keeping your audience engaged at all times. Keep up the great work guys!
-
“Why are you wearing the cowboy hat” “ I don’t know man, I think I’m just a little bit lost, Lol 😆
-
The sound from that suppressed 8.6 round actually sounds like the made up suppressed sound they use in movies and games. Just a POP... impressive.
-
8.6 is an absolute unit, its so crazy.
-
Big ups to Ree, doing the work that really matters. Not all heroes wear capes 🙌🙏🙌 Hooah Awesome video too
-
Next build for sure. Great video. Always entertaining and informative.
-
I've never seen a round FLY through THREE ballistic gel blocks the way this did. That's beyond anything we see on a regular basis, and I can't wait to watch how popular this round becomes
-
Almost didn't even look like the round would stop in the ballistic gel no matter how many blocks you set up. Looked like it was a rocket propelled drill, and zoomed out the other side like it was having a lovely, lovely day. One of the coolest ballistic gel tests I've seen for a round.
-
I would really like to see this compared to the .458 Socom for hunting. The 8.6 has the penetration but the Socom has the energy.
-
I REALLY want to see what this does to armor after seeing it go through three blocks like they weren't even there.
