.308 is pretty impressive.
I’d like to see how my 7.5x55 compares.

That depends on the frying pans. Cast iron being the most durable. Teflon coating, or lack thereof won’t really matter. Be prepared for richorchets.

I have an almost 50-year cast iron skillet. Don’t want anyone shooting it.

The premise is invalidated after the first hole. Replace the pans for a valid test.

Better question: How many Barbara Walters videos does it take to stop a round?

It depends. In some video games it only takes one.

Probably quite a few if it’s a .460 weatherby magnum with buffalo bore solid brass bullet

You can buy slick cast iron non stick from Field
But they are pricey

Lodge takes effort to get up to snuff through a dozen uses usually

Nothing disburses heat like cast iron but careful touching handle

Interesting demonstration. I like that they get to the point without endless banter, horsing around and BS typical of this type of video.

Now do it with iron pans. As Rosie O’Donnell pointed out re 9/11, steel melts.

Good times.

As a youth, spitballs became a thing in the classroom.

One would use his tongue to roll a spitball, then wrap an elastic around a finger and thumb (think “slingshot”) and fire your spitball at another student via the elastic band.

My brother and I would practise in the basement. I recall we got that spitball going through seven or eight sheets of paper.

Good times.

This guy’s a piker.

If you want the definitive collection of “Will ‘X’ penetrate ‘Y’”, you need to check with Matt at the Demolition Ranch.
