This video compares 12-gauge 00 buckshot and various slugs for self-defense using a ballistics dummy. 00 buckshot demonstrated a tight spread but some over-penetration. Hollow point slugs caused significant damage but also over-penetrated. Specialized rounds like the Salt Creek Twister and a custom 'Spicy Slug' showed unique fragmentation and destructive potential, respectively. Birdshot was deemed insufficient due to lack of penetration.

This review of the Mossberg Shockwave 590M highlights its unique magazine-fed design, offering increased capacity and faster reloads compared to traditional tube-fed shotguns. The firearm demonstrates surprising accuracy, even when hip-fired, and its action is noted for its smoothness due to the absence of a shell lifter. The review covers testing with various ammunition types, including birdshot and buckshot, and discusses practical considerations like weight, recoil, and magazine cost.
