Video S1. Run 090227 7237.avi. 1900 frames per second video of Shot 090227. View looking down on the target block through a viewport near the top of the AVGR impact chamber. Projectile impact from the bottom of the frame.

Video S2. Run 090230 7237.avi. 1900 frames per second video of Shot 090230. View looking down on the target block through a viewport near the top of the AVGR impact chamber. Projectile impact from the bottom of the frame.

Video S3. Run 090231 7238.avi. 1900 frames per second video of Shot 090231. View looking at the target block from the side through the large side window of the AVGR impact chamber. Projectile impact from the right side of the frame.  Note the up-range recoil of the target block.
