How many 22lr rounds would it take to get through a ceramic ESAPI plate?  16" barrel, Federal 325rd white "auto match" box.
 



Watch here to find out!

There is no way I could afford enough 22lr to go through an AR500 plate.  Ever.

I'll go against the grain here.

3-5 to shatter the plate.  Another 3-5 in the same location before one finds its way through.

So between 6-10 rounds.

Are you talking about hitting in the same spot, or just all over the plate? If you could ensure that they would all hit the same spot, I bet you could do it in 10 or so.

I'm thinking sometime in the second barrel (I've heard it takes a few rounds to wear out a .22LR barrel).

The same spot, as much as you can shooting pretty quick off a rest with iron sights.

Same here. More than 10, less than 100.

The thing you have to remember is that those are ceramic plates, which can stop some really powerful/fast/hard projectiles ... but not many of them. The armor is basically self-sacrificing, and it will crumble quickly once hit a few times.

I curious as to why you think it was crappy. Looked like it worked as designed to me. They're a one use deal. They're not supposed to come away from a gunshot undamaged

From the cost of ceramic plates. I would expect more durability against a 1200fps lead bullet.

It took around 50 in the same hole.

But SAPI plates are supposed to be against something firm, not flapping in the breeze. And even though rounds came out the side of the plate, the didn't truly go through the backing material.

I am thinking it is going to take a couple hundred.

but then the question is, is 22lr a rifle or pistol round?

ETA: interesting results  I really would have thought it would have taken more,
