458 SOCOM - Destroys Everything ─ TAOFLEDERMAUS

Gregg demonstrates the .458 SOCOM launching some 300 grain hard cast hand loaded rounds. The gel shot used a ballistic-tip hollow point. We had a few problems with the red, hard cast bullets as they had not been tested through this gun -as you can see with the placement of some of the shots. This was after we took quite a few shots just getting the sight adjusted. Those who reload can understand how much trial and error goes into loading rounds so they have the ideal ballistics. But we had fun playing with this lead launcher.

Those familiar with this channel probably remember seeing this same unit in our videos from around 7 YEARS ago, when these were very rare to see on Youtube. Some of our footage was even seen on some TV shows.

As you can see I remembered to do frequent black calibrations with the Chronos 1.4 HS camera to eliminate the sensor lines this time!

Most shots were filmed at 8,800 frames a second.
