What Happened to "9 Lives"
This video details an experimental test of a .410 shotgun, '9 Lives,' pushed to its limits with extreme overpressure loads. The firearm, after successfully firing standard .454 Casull rounds, catastrophically failed when subjected to a heavy cast lead projectile with a substantial charge of salvaged powder. Despite the failure, the analysis reveals surprising resilience in certain components and provides valuable data on firearm failure under extreme stress. The instruction comes from Barry of Moss Pond, who possesses extensive shooting experience and proficiency with precision tools.
