This video demonstrates a DIY process for creating custom exploding slugs, utilizing Lucky 7 Air Ammo slugs as a base and explosive material sourced from .22 caliber Edgun West exploding pellets. The process involves carefully filling the hollow points of the larger slugs with the explosive compound and securing it with super glue. The creator, exhibiting advanced knowledge in projectile modification, then conducts live-fire tests with an AEA Zeus .50 caliber airgun to showcase the successful detonation of these custom projectiles, creating a significant smoke cloud upon impact.
The host of Shooting Gear Reviews demonstrates the fabrication of custom exploding slugs for the AEA Zeus .72 cal MKII air rifle. By filling hollow-point slugs with material from .22 caliber exploding pellets and sealing them, he creates projectiles that cause significant fragmentation upon impact, as shown in tests against a concrete brick and a fire extinguisher. The video highlights the extreme power of the .72 caliber airgun and the experimental nature of custom ammunition.
This video critically examines exotic shotgun rounds, including exploding slugs, coinshot, bolo rounds, flechettes, and Dragon's Breath. Using high-speed cameras and ballistics gel, the tests reveal most specialty ammunition is ineffective or a gimmick, failing to outperform standard buckshot or slugs. The exploding slug's payload is minimal, flechettes are unstable, and coinshot acts like a slug. Dragon's Breath is visually impressive but lacks practical application.
This YouTube video tests the lethality of the Evanix Viper X air rifle in .25 caliber, specifically using EdGun West exploding slugs. The test subject is a "ballistic zombie," implying a simulated projectile testing scenario. The video also highlights an optic used, the Viridian RFX44, and provides links for purchasing both the slugs and the optic. It offers a contact email for product testing submissions, suggesting a focus on reviewing shooting gear.
This video title suggests a destructive test or comparison involving "NEEDOH" and "9mm exploding slugs," questioning if they are "BULLETPROOF." The content likely focuses on testing the integrity of these projectiles against some form of protection, with a strong emphasis on ammunition performance and potentially the effectiveness of bulletproof materials. The use of "exploding slugs" implies a focus on the terminal ballistics and potential fragmentation of ammunition.
