Frequently Asked Questions

What are the three types of Firequest 12-gauge ammunition tested in the video?

The video tests three unique Firequest 12-gauge rounds: Fire Ants, which are rubber buckshot designed for less-lethal applications; Flechettes, which are small, arrow-like projectiles capable of high penetration; and 'Doom! Doom! Doom!', a multi-projectile round combining birdshot, buckshot, and a slug.

How did the Flechette rounds perform during the shotgun test?

The Flechette rounds were tested using a Maverick 88 shotgun. They exhibited recoil similar to standard shells and demonstrated significant penetration, successfully piercing a shrapnel vest and embedding into the wooden target frame behind it.

What was the observed recoil and impact of the 'Doom! Doom! Doom!' round?

The 'Doom! Doom! Doom!' round, a combination of birdshot, buckshot, and a slug, produced the heaviest recoil among the tested Firequest ammunition. Despite the recoil, it surprisingly maintained a very tight grouping on the target.

What is the difference between Firequest Fire Ants and Flechette ammunition?

Firequest Fire Ants are rubber buckshot, intended as a less-lethal option with minimal damage, feeling like a 'cap gun'. Flechettes are sharp projectiles designed for high penetration, capable of piercing vests and wood, with recoil comparable to standard shells.
