This video demonstrates a professional firearms instructor's test of 'chain shot' ammunition, a concept adapted from naval warfare for shotguns. Three variants—fine, medium, and coarse chain—were fired into ballistic gel to assess penetration and energy transfer. The fine chain showed minimal penetration, the medium chain penetrated about 4 inches, and the coarse chain exhibited dangerous ricochet potential, leading the instructor to conclude it's best left to historical naval contexts.
