We decided to try a round of .30 carbine Ball to compare.

It penetrated 7 jugs, or almost 4 feet, and had little bullet deformation.

Several have asked about the 8MM Mauser.

It was always considered a big penetrator.

This is a round of Ball Ammo.

It penetrated 4 jugs, but then deflected and went out the top of the box.

But look at the damage to the box cause by the hydrostatic shock.

The sides of the box are 1/2 inch particle board.

Some have asked about Armor Piercing (AP) ammo.

Let's try one.

I shot a round out of my Springfield 1903-A3.
