Frequently Asked Questions

What types of custom 12 Gauge shotgun rounds were tested?

The video tested three distinct custom 12 Gauge shotgun rounds: a projectile shaped like a spiral copper coil, a shell filled with copper rods, and a ball composed of wax and lead shot.

What was the observed performance of the copper rod shotgun rounds?

The copper rod shotgun rounds initially exhibited significant keyholing, meaning they struck the target sideways. However, with extended firing, their flight stabilized, and they began hitting the target more squarely.

How did the copper coil shotgun round perform?

The copper coil shotgun round demonstrated surprising accuracy and stability, consistently flying true to the point of aim throughout the testing process.

What happened to the wax and lead shot ball round upon impact?

In initial tests, the wax and lead shot ball tended to fragment upon impact with the target. Subsequent firings showed that the slugs maintained their integrity better.
