How Many Brake Discs Can A .50 Cal Sniper Rifle Shoot Through?
It’s time to answer one of those questions no one asked, as we watch a man shoot at a bunch of old brake discs with guns of differing sizes.
The video takes around three minutes to get to the point (you may want to skip to around the 2min 50sec mark to avoid the waffling, adverts and singing), and what we learn is this: if you want to shoot through a few brake discs, you’re going to need something massive. Like a Barrett M82 sniper rifle using a .50 calibre round.
We’re not certain what use that information is, nor why Matt from DemolitionRanch keeps referring to what he’s shooting as ‘callipers’, but regardless, this sure is fun to watch.
Growing up on a diet of World Rally Championship highlights and lengthy Gran Turismo 2 sessions, a life in cars was as good as inevitable for Matt.

Actually no, I’ve never wondered this. Probably because of the fact that there’s no reason to shoot a brake disc. 🤔
I mean in an even of an apocalypse, this would be useful wouldn’t it? 😛
I mean what’s next? How many engine blocks can a .50 Cal shoot through?
So, this video shows us, that brake discs are as good for protection as a bulletproof vest,only waaay cheaper?
Wins community?
“Brak-ing old parts is useless” Disc-uss…..
So,the car fitted with these discs will be a “shooting brake”?
So this is what you call a shooting brake
Answering the real questions
I love it when people think you cant shoot guns in Canada…
