Video: Shooting “Fire Rings” with a Desert Eagle

Few handguns enjoy as much attention in Hollywood and popular culture as the Desert Eagle. This large-framed brainchild of Israel Military Industries and Magnum Research is one of the most iconic pistols of the last quarter decade. Affectionately nicknamed the “Deagle,” this over-sized handgun is offered in .50 AE, .44 Magnum, and .357 Magnum—three calibers that can pack quite a punch. Throw in some hand-loaded ammunition, and the gun will bark rings of fire that you have to see to believe.

YouTuber Chaos311Clarity noticed that his hand-loaded .50 AE rounds were producing large fire rings, and decided to record the phenomenon during a recent shoot. You can see the video below:
