This video presents a ballistic gel test of a Barnaul .410 3-inch slug. The test reveals impressive performance for a .410 slug, achieving significant expansion and limiting penetration to approximately 12 inches due to its mushrooming. The slug exhibited excellent weight retention, even exceeding its advertised weight, and a substantial expansion diameter.

This video tests Brenneke 3-inch Magnum .410 slugs through ballistic gelatin. The presenter notes significantly lower-than-advertised velocities from both a 22-inch and a 26.5-inch barrel, suggesting this may contribute to reduced recoil compared to other brands. Despite the lower velocity, the slugs produced a surprisingly large wound cavity and achieved approximately 20.5 to 21.5 inches of penetration in the gel.
