  1. 0:13 WHOA! Wait a minute! August 20, 1955 was 66 years ago, NOT 76 years ago! Good grief, you scared me! I was born in 1951 and I have been telling everyone I am 70! 😁 FWIW, target shooters prefer ammunition which keep the bullets either supersonic throughout their flight to the intended range OR bullets which remain sub-sonic throughout their flight (shorter range shooters with .22 rifles, for example) Avoiding the "trans sonic" range which causes instability. The US Army's specification for their new cartridge was built around being able to bullets super sonic over a longer range than the current standard cartridge. Great video as always👍
