This video provides a methodical breakdown of a Remington ShurShot Game Load 12 Gauge shotgun shell. An intermediate technical enthusiast demonstrates the disassembly process, measuring shot weight at 23.98g and powder weight at 1.35g. The guide includes visual inspection of components like the lead birdshot and plastic wad, and a burn rate test for the powder, highlighting the use of precision tools for analysis.

This video demonstrates an experimental procedure of microwaving a box of Federal Game-Load 12 gauge shotgun shells. The experiment, conducted by firearms enthusiast Matt Carriker in a concrete bunker, shows the shells reacting to microwave radiation, resulting in melting and combustion. The content highlights safety considerations and the physical changes ammunition undergoes under extreme heat, offering a unique, albeit non-standard, look at material science related to firearms components.

This video from Demolition Ranch, hosted by Matt Carriker, explores the effects of microwaving napalm. While the napalm itself does not ignite in the microwave, it boils and cracks the container. Adding metallic components like birdshot and shell casings induces sparking. A controlled burn outside the microwave confirms the napalm's flammability. The video highlights experimental safety measures, including protective shielding.
