Exactly

slugs/buckshot

I don't remember why, but they had a reason for it

Mind you this was before the era of powder beanbags that remove door locks and hinges safely

Bottleneck rounds make me laugh

@AndreiT It is a round made just to set a world record in projectile speed

Yeah the amount of powder behind is insane

It was also loaded into a custom-built mini-cannon with a hella-long barrel

That powder is though a slow-burn variety

Because this amount of normal powder would just blow up

i would think the bullet would disintegrate just from the forces acting on it

It is a special bullet too

solid metal?

I think they used a titanium core in it

wonder how much steel it can penetrate

I love these things, fucken heavy bastards

Just wait until FN hears about it.

a normal .50 can go through about 28mm

5.7mm BMG

Damn I can't find the article about that world record madness

adapters for a 40mm?

Instead of making 40mm breaching rounds.

I really like the idea of a 37mm havoc flare luancher as it's only like 350-400 bucks, but you'd need to modify your own rounds

Hahah

It goes Mach 5.5

yeah 40mm inserts

Look at that thing

Mach 7

The problem is a 40mm round would fit in a 37mm barrel, so there's a good chance it wouldn't fit it

those are 40mm

It takes a special barrel to shoot the .17 Incinerator. Kent Wilson of Ammo-One, who helped develop this extreme wildcat, explains: “The speeds are so great we had to use a custom 3-groove, polygonal-rifling 1:20″-twist barrel to keep the bullets from disintegrating on launch. The polygonal land/groove geometry reduces bullet engraving, which also helps keep the bullets in one piece. Also we must use solids — regular jacketed bullets can’t handle these speeds”.

37 is generally for use of non leathal rounds

*Because of the ultra-high velocity generated by the .17 Incinerator, solid bullets must be used. Conventional jacketed projectiles would disintegrate before they reached the target.

wow

The incinerator, while very well developed, is very likely a hoax, and I think it was confirmed to be so by the user, much to my chagrin

so it's a meme?
