I watched this video a number of times when I got my S&W .357.

After watching the video, I see he has the target paper forward of the end of the barrel. A lot of the damage to the target paper is from the muzzle blast and not the cylinder gap. I would like to see the test done with the target paper just around the cylinder gap only. I am sure that damage would still be severe.
