Not sure what the "take-aways" are from these videos.

Maybe, "Don't miss."

Why didn't they put any insulation inside the "walls?"

Most interior walls do not have insulation.

I was extremely surprised.

There are two videos.

The first one shows .223, 9mm & 12 gauge 00 buckshot.

The second video shows .22 LR fired out of pistol & rifle.

Just saw that it is 22plinkster's video they have. Very interesting at how the buckshot did.

That's not true to life at all with the walls that close together and without insulation. Many times the bullet is going to tumble leaving that first wall and hit the second wall at odd angles, this will drastically reduce penetration. Additionally, your walls are not going to be flat like that and going through a wall at an angle adds quite a bit of depth to the sheet the rock.

Still a cool idea, I just don't think it's good to determine real life penetration in a home.
