This video from 704 TACTICAL tests various extreme shotgun ammunition rounds against a Ford Ranger, starting with the truck bed and progressing to the engine. The instructor demonstrates the impact and penetration capabilities of standard birdshot, double buckshot, and several specialty rounds like the Pitbull, Double Slug, Macho Gaucho, SO Round, Brass Tenderizer, and Steel Dumbbell. The tests reveal significant damage, with some rounds penetrating the truck bed and doors, while others are designed for expansion and personal defense. The video culminates in testing powerful rounds against a running engine, ultimately disabling the vehicle.

This video compares the performance of a semi-automatic shotgun (Beretta 1301) against a pump-action shotgun (Remington 870) through various drills focused on speed and manipulation. The instructor highlights that while semi-automatics are generally faster, proficiency with either platform heavily relies on consistent training. The comparison emphasizes the ease of use for less experienced shooters with semi-automatics, while acknowledging the potential for pump-actions to be just as effective with sufficient practice.
