Slugs with binary-type explosive in them

Would be really interesting to see a test against sheets of drywall for overpenetration. Yes, my spidey-sense says it will just blast through all the sheets, the wall, the TV, the couch, the garage, the neighbors garage etc. but if the drywall is enough to set it off there could be low penetration/high lateral damage.

Just if there is a possibility the gun might blow up. I also use my own guns in these cases instead of risking Danny or Gregg's gun.

Hollyshit! That round sure as hell is effective at solving the over penetrating issue most ammunition (that isn't designed to be penetrating/piercing) exhibits. This is waaaay better than passive fragmentation or mushrooming design mechanisms. Sure, the little explosion is scary, but results in the round's energy being fully transferred into only the first object it hits, resulting in maximum effect. Fully transferred, means no energy lost over penetration and exiting? Just wow. I was really impressed by the piece of wood and lead plate tests.

That lead plate shot was very telling, huge force!

Probably didn't want to be as close to the breech if the slugs failed, hence the vest over the breech for the first few shots too.

I have a feeling that charge explodes the slug more than hydrostatic pressure would on its own.

You know... I find I look forward to new TFM videos more than anyone else's. Ditched one creator whose videos I stopped watching and bumped up my donation to y'all by a couple-a dollars. Question... how do you decide between hand holding and using the rack... jig... holder... thingy? Is it an accuracy thing since you had so few shells, or is Danny feeling ok?

That was sweet. If you are willing I will buy you a clear gel block to shoot these with. PM me and let me know

Who needs a log splitter all you need is a shotgun who'd have thunk. Great video as always.

Hmm, at least one of the software engineers at Patreon seems to have goofed. Somewhat significantly. I get HTML in the textarea when trying to edit my comment. That should never happen.

The fact you have to refer to it as ""that compound"" to avoid infringing trademark or whatever... Asinine.

Wow, that lead plate hit was crazy.

Slugs with shells... (yes, I'm a complete doofus!) <a href="http://randomer.net/stuff/snails-01-sm.jpg" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">http://randomer.net/stuff/snails-01-sm.jpg</a>
