Level 3 Armor vs the M995: World's Most Expensive 5.56 Round 

It must be rated at lvl 3+. Regular lvl 3 isn't rated to stop m855.

You ready had one so have one of these: 🤘

@@saygoodnight2010 Currently there are no ratings for M855 or M193. Level III is 6 shots of M80 Ball. It's generally accepted Level III steel will stop M855, but will have trouble with M193. Level III UHMWPE will stop M193, but not M855. new RF1/2 standards will address this.

Lol true

Can confirm thats why I'm here lmao

So true brother

Indeed

Thats Chad ammo.

you mean like 1600 roubles

@@retr0_fps yes thats how much 1600 roubles is

995 is trash tbh, way to low of flesh damage, between that and the garbage hit reg and server tick sometimes I have to dump half to almost all of a STANAG into even a scav center mass. 855a1 is way better. Or even 856a1.

@@SexyLilSeaOtter This is why it's the anti-chad round. You shouldn't run this against mid tier opponents. This is too early for this wipe season, maybe one more month in...

yea, its headphones and a shattered mask for me.

They really cost no more than $2. The first ammo I got in Iraq was a mix of mk318 and m955 in a ziplock bag. The Mk318 rounds were so damaged they could barely feed, I'm not a fan of OTM rifle rounds.

@@Mr12ob did some quick research but its by no means accurate enaugh to br cited If we go by the higher price of tungsten (350 $ per 1kg) then the value of tungsten itself in the bullet is around 3.5$ assuming it has the same volume as a typical 62grain steel core. But unfortunately tungsten price per kg varies from 25$ to 2500$ so its hard to say.

They Dident go through the shotgun scav head unlike his buckshot on my head

@@yogithebear7493 could have bought an helmet and a visor instead of spending it on M995

@Vladimir Putin still, if they were as cheap as standard m855a1 they would be issued to everyone, so its safe to assume they are either more expensive or thier balistic characteristics are unsatisfactory. Edit: using the same method it would seem that the price of carbide ranges from 1.5$ per bullet and down depending on the quality of carbide. So safe to assume around 2-2.5$ per full cartrige.

1 mag in a hk, others in the kappa

can u explain what ur doing with 180 m955 on customs

What are you doing bringing 180 of them to customs? Explain yourself.Please. Maybe if you're running Shoreline/Woods it makes sense but why are you running it on customs?

I really love the channel and I want to continue to see it grow! Let me think on this and maybe we can work something out so you can continue to tear stuff up with them! I deployed 05 - 06 and Naval custom did a bad job searching my bag because I found them in my old DCUs! Since then, I've had them in my mag.

Cool, we will take them👍 we would love to try more test with them

@Baxter James his point is that he has 300$ worth of m995 sitting in a mag and he didnt even know it. Its pretty obvious what he meant but i guess i still had to clear it up for you.

Anyway I can get just 1? I collect 556 weird rounds. I’ve got pretty much everything but the 995

@@Peyton73 what are these “weird rounds” i only know hollow point, fmj, frangible, varmit, incendiary, explosive, and tracer.

Duly noted. I mean I'd like to think that I'd be able to Chip away through that wall and I'm going to get you at you.

Green rips are great for windshields

GT's are rated as "light" armor piercing not for armor rated to stop heavier rounds like any Level 3 and up are rated for.

Meant to shoot through vegetation. Common complaint of M193 during Vietnam

Car doors and light cover, most rounds penetrate but their trajectory is altered and they lose a lot of energy, green tips were the solution to that, they retain their energy better through cover like windshields, car door panels, trunks, wheels and wood.

Thank you for the explanation

Green tip is not armor piercing or designed to. Intended purpose is to penetrate soft body armor.

Green tip has 100th of a mg of tungsten in it and that is wrap in lead then with a copper jacket. That is why it spins sideways as soon as it leaves the end of the rifle.

Green tip is designed as a light armor piercing round meant for cinder blocks, mild steel, and soft body armor with a mild steel core

The DoD used M855 and M856-T for live fire exercises and actual missions back in the cold war. M193 and M196-T were used sometimes also, but mostly for training and live fire exercises. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/5.56%C3%9745mm_NATO

Never run below level 4

It is either no armor, level 2, level 4 and above. Don't bother with 3. It won't stop crap

@@semi.g Scav deterrent Edit: level 4 is probably more of a waste than 3. Three stops almost any scav rounds for like 23k roubles iirc Edit: 48k, not 23. Somehow got mixed up with PACA costs

@@aidenfrench2004 eh, I had encounters where I almost died to scavs and if I were to be running lvl 3 I would've been dead. 7.62 hits hard, so does .366 AP and slugs. I honestly never run level 3, only went in raids with it like 2 or 3 times. It's either 2, 4 or higher for me, 3 just doesn't seem worth it. This is my view and opinion on this sooo 🤷🏻‍♂️ There also isn't a huge difference in price for them

@@aidenfrench2004 Scavs can have PS ammo all the time, goes right through Lv 3 Lv 4 is the real scav deterrent unless you get an unlucky scav with a VPO with .366ap and 1 taps you chest through lv 4 anyways

You've either found a really good deal on 7.62, or a bad deal on 5.56. Also you didn't specify which 7.62.

Level iii armor is rated to stop typical 223/556, 762x39, a standard 308/762x51 ball round, and 545x39 I think. Not all do, but they are supposed to so they can claim NIJ ratings. With 556 and 308, when you start upping the velocity, lighter bullets or increased pressure, they tend to penetrate level iii. Often iii+ might stop faster bullets. But, with 762x39, the speeds need to reach over 308 velocity and the cartridge just can’t handle that much pressure.

With 7.62x39 if you use a hard metal like tungsten you will then defeat level iii body armor. This goes for other calibers as well.

👍👍

Yes American armor system goes to lvl 4 as the highest rating so lvl 3 would probably be equivalent to lvl 5 to Russian

Thank you! Cheers!

Different tier 3, it's not the same rating as eft's system as it's russian.

Lvl 3 sucks in tarkov bud

Thanks 👍
