haha nice!

So that went through two layers of 2mm steel before ricocheting off the 8mm steel beam, yes?

It's clear that yes, the fin is flying straight and true. Still too damn quiet though hehe

yes it passed through the 2 layers!
impact on the steel beam is more profound than the first test!
noise is a mystery! :D

Probably because the box section kept the projectile steady.

The impact mark is similar to the one from my test.
noise is a mystery! :D
the only explanation I can think of is the low C:B ratio...

What you think about use low mix but H2 as a fuel?

Through the C:B ratio, this thing should have a simular noise of a .50, as he uses a .50 rifle barrel...

Hydrogen is not faile to obtain and is more energy than butane.
I see no interest in hydrogen if we mix a lower BP by using the ...

Using a 50 calibre barrel has no bearing on the noise - besides for this shot he used a 12mm smoothbore.
Why do you think H<sub>2</sub> dangerous?
Hydrogen has a much wider ignition range in terms of percentage concentration, which makes it easier to use but also easier to have an accident with. Also, you can't get significant mixes with hydrogen at atmospheric pressure.

this shot is also testing the new barrel with the system that holds the projectile.
And alignment of the muzzle brake is well! :D
