This just might be the BEST 12ga. Slug we've tested!

In this video we test the Russian Twister 6 slug sent in by Psycho Klown. We used "midi-shells" which are slightly shorter than a 2 3/4" shell, which gives just a little more capacity in the tube. Instead of driving these at high velocities, we show how impressive these perform at even sub-sonic speeds. It isn't often our own tests impress me.

The fact it didn't hit the pork shoulder exactly square but still fragmented and did that much damage at subsonic speeds is extremely impressive...

[@KainYusanagi]

They also fired into the cross-section of the muscle rather than into the skin and fat and side of the muscle, which is how it would have hit had you fired on an actual hog, so it's even MORE impressive than you stated here, and that's already quite impressive!

@@DSiren There are also many people in office that think a semi-automatic civilian rifle is as deadly as the military-issue armaments it's derived from. Most of them think "semi-automatic" means that it doesn't fire by itself, but still fires full auto if you pull the trigger, FFS.

The prototype, the Shirinsky-Shikhmatov bullet is one of the oldest Russian bullets for bear hunting with a 12-caliber smoothbore weapon (1880s). There is a deep expansion recess in the head part, closed from above with a capsule for expansiveness. The bullet was most likely designed for the traditional Russian bear hunting in its winter den. The shooting was conducted from a distance of 5-15 yards, and the bear had to be stopped immediately. Because the bear, waking up in winter, does not go to bed, but goes to nearby villages and eats people, dogs, everything that he can find. And it can kill the hunters themselves. It is very easy to kill a bear with a 223-caliber rifled rifle at 30 yards in the head, the skull splits. But it's not easy to get into a bear that runs, and bears run very fast for short distances. And such a 12-caliber bullet stops a bear when it hits almost any part of its body.

@agvulpine: The GRAIN is the standard AMERICAN unit of measure for bullet weight, powder charge, and anything related to ammunition and reloading. Metricrap is a series of bastard "measurements " (sic) to be avoided. If you see it in a designation, treat it as its NAME rather than an actual measurement. I got vaccinated against Metricrap years ago and almost got killed in the process. Perhaps I should explain how I got vaccinated against Metricrap. Right around the turn of the 20th century, Germany changed its Metricrap. 8 Metricrap changed from .315 inch to .323 inch. the guy at the next firing point had a rifle chambered for 8 Mauser. His bore diameter was .315 inch. He handloaded his cartridges with bullets of .323 inch labeled 8 Metricrap. They miked out at .323 inch. He chambered the first cartridge. the bolt was stiff on closing, sign of an interference fit between the cartridge neck and the neck of the chamber. When he pressed the trigger, the base of the cartridge case blew out. The stock bulged out at the magazine well. the floorplate blew out. The shooter got a faceful of brass fragments and burning powder granules. His safety glasses saved his eyesight. The extractor blew out just as I was coming up from picking up some of my brass and I got a glancing blow to the top of my head. They found the extractor buried in the wall at the end of the firing line. Because of personal injuries involved, both local police and the sheriff's office investigated along with the range staff. Both had personnel on site when this happened. I still have a dent on top of my skull where I got hit by the extractor, That's how I got vaccinated against Metricrap.

Very similar to the bullet of Shirinsky-Shikhmatov. He was an excellent bear hunter. Paraffin was poured into the center of the bullet, most likely for sealing, so that the powder was not damp. Such bullets are very heavy - 35-36 grams, the stopping effect is excessive, causes shock to the victim, gives additional time for the second shot. It spoils meat very much. Accuracy is relative over long distances. Thanks for the review! Greetings from Russia.

[@bulletinmyleg]

these slugs are phenomenal!

[@robertlewis4666]

Still my favourite bunch of knuckleheads on KZbin!

[@jordansmith4040]

So many different slugs from Russia. I am starting to think they don't use the same slug twice, they must develop a new one for the next week's hunt.

[@john-paulsilke893]

They are severely limited on what kind of guns they can own so instead have different ammunition for the same effect. They must prove themselves as legitimate and “safe” with their smooth bore before they can even buy a rifles shotgun. I think you can start the paperwork after safe ownership of a smooth bore for 5 years before you can get a rifled gun!

[@stevennewman4778]

Too bad there’s not an American importer specializing in slugs from places like Russia. I bet it’d be a fairly profitable business.

[@pepereal606]

It would be cool to see the different plugs in this mold. And it would be really cool. I mean really cool to see some 20 gauge testing.

[@allynj2272]

Came here because this was the last video I remembered with Danny. Rest in peace buddy. Just let you know, this stranger on the internet is definitely shedding a tear for you this morning. You will be missed.

[@jamal69jackson77]

Wonderful slugs! Very impressive!

[@Face_RC]

Shooter? No, youtube. They are Velociteers!

[@GunFunZS]

A lot of the Russians do use rifled choke tubes that are a little bit longer about 10 in seems to be the norm. They are generally referred to as paradox because that was the branding Holland and Holland used in the Safari Hunter Days for the similar concept.

Hey mouse Wildman Danny and Officer Greg aka the Fluffster

[@AllNighterHeider]

That shoulder was devistated

[@travissmith2211]

I won't lie, when I saw the video title I was afraid that they had made that many sequels to a horrible movie.

[@hiker919]

The meat target convinced me this slug would really hurt A lot.

[@crankygunreviews]

Great accuracy, tons of power, great fragmentation... that’s a great round!

[@coreym162]

That was actually a pretty good Russian accent xD Good vid as always!

[@kdawg3484]

The last year or so has been a great time for slugs on this channel. Many of the best ones we've ever seen. Add this one to the hall of fame.

[@taofledermaus]

thanks!

[@davidrdanner4232]

Great video TFM, very good job 👏 👍

[@taofledermaus]

Thanks 👍

[@MeleeTiger]

Why in the world would a country outlaw rifled shotguns? The fact that people are making rounds for smoothbores that work just as well, shows just how absurd a law that is...

[@john-paulsilke893]

Range. A rifled gun can hold much higher pressure and thus shoot further. Of course with higher pressure you also get higher recoil and a shotgun can be savage with its recoil even on a smooth bore gun. Also it’s a control of language. A rifled shotgun shooting a slug is definitionally also a rifle so wiggle room for being allowed to own a rifle by the same law(s).

[@thecocooreo]

Buffalo's a great guy with an awesome channel! 👍💥

[@taofledermaus]

I really want to see him hit 100k subs. Not that subscriber counts are that important since few of them actually watch a channel they sub to. lol

[@ftswarbill]

Out of all my guns I love my shotguns the most. They are so much fun to shoot and they are so cheap.

[@taofledermaus]

Cheapest but most versatile gun you can get.

[@lokichoki_]

Alot of people using shotguns for home defense are not aware of the sheer violence involved, pistols put holes in you, rifles put holes through you, shotguns take pieces off you, if your not ready to tread through the chunks and keep fighting then get ready :)

[@stevejenkins9984]

Hell yes love this channel!

[@taofledermaus]

thanks Steve

[@RPKinator]

I love that the gel head stand is like, someone's wifes vase stand

[@taofledermaus]

lol I think that was what it was

[@adamcedarwall6049]

Turn away kids don't look at the soggy meat pocket

[@johncashwell1024]

Jeff, I really like the plug for Buffalo Outdoors. As you stated, he really is a super nice guy and he is trying to save for a Kronos high speed camera for his channel; so he can really use more subs. Also, I haven't forgotten about sending you the PDX defender slugs, I am just trying to figure out the best way to exchange info, privately.

[@johnwhauserman]

That's one hell of a tenderizer.

[@Hatch61]

If you can find some”Alliant Reloder 50, very slow burn rate, you’ll get higher FPS.

[@ronaldmasterbud1551]

The Expansion Rate is WAY to Slow, You'd Never Build Enough Pressure to Burn Correctly. And More than Likely It Would Fall Out the end of the Barrel. Shotgun & Handgun powders Have to Operate on the same Principles, " Relatively " Small powder charge, But Very Large Swept Volume, and Low Chamber Pressure, I Believe Absolute Max Pressure, For New Shotguns 3 & 3.5" Steel shot is 22 k psi. About 38 special +p Pressure. Where Modern Rifles is Between 50 & 65 K psi. Even the old 30-30 is 44 K psi.

[@taofledermaus]

I wasn't trying to get high velocity.

[@craigryan5290]

Rate 10 out of 10. Love all the folks that you work with.

[@taofledermaus]

thanks Craig!

[@damnoldguy]

I'd like to see a demonstration with a Paul Harrel meat target.

[@taofledermaus]

I'd go broke shooting that! lol

[@cojones8518]

Definitely wouldn't want to be shot by one. Ouch!

[@camojoe83]

Dang, that pork shoulder shot was rough.
