X-TREME Rifled Slugs - Prettiest Shells in the World!

Today we test out some American Foster slugs that are no longer in production called "X-treme copper-plated slugs". These were introduced in 2014 and were only around $5 a box when they were for sale. I was impressed with the quality of the packaging and loading components which all seems proprietary. It's common for the smaller companies to use off-the-shelf hulls or wads.

[@KentuckyBallistics]

I really liked the jar of ballistic gel. That was pretty cool! Great video as always!

[@taofledermaus]

I thought it would just crack it in a few places, not shatter it like it did!

[@arclightvideos7528]

I was also pretty surprised

[@jasonhull2163]

Awesome seeing Kentucky Ballistics here too. Both great channels.

[@dudebroski9460]

X-treme bullets is still a company, i buy all my bulk reloading bullets from them. They have great prices and excellent quality.

[@rightleg5920]

So happy to see this channel continue to climb and gain supporters. Thanks guys!

[@mrbadx19]

always a thumbs up Jeff, OG and Danny are great, subbed over 10 years now, never a dull minnow!

[@taofledermaus]

thank you!

[@JesseAndMike]

That was a cool slow mo of the drill! :D Liked!

[@taofledermaus]

thank you Jesse and Mike!

[@Stoic_grimace]

Thanks to the Patrons we all get to enjoy these videos. The shockwaves on the longer shots was cool!

[@hoosierpatriot2280]

Danny shoots like a Marine. That is a compliment for all you civilians out there.

[@johnthomas425]

10 of 10. The wardrobe selection for Danny's big dance sequence was spot on. The music was fantastic. Great job Jeff and gang. Stay safe

[@TrikeRoadPoet]

LOVE watching you and Danny and OG blasting odd slugs into the most interesting targets. Thanks for the fun!!!

[@taofledermaus]

thank you!

[@doublezzranch849]

Never get tired of the slow motion. GREAT JOB GUYS Your friend in OREGON

[@taofledermaus]

thank you!

[@Benzy670]

The dirt being kicked up by the shockwave at 9:09 made for a cool shot!

[@matthewsanchez5796]

Justin indeed

[@SteefHartman]

second

[@MrDmitriRavenoff]

If you take a 5 gallon steel paint bucket, fill it completely with water, and then hammer the lid on tight you will get the hydrostatic shock effect you are looking for. I did that at a bachelor party and the effect was amazing. I wish I had it on high speed. :)

[@Yman83464z]

Who was holding up the bucket? The ex?

[@WHOTEEWHO]

Always love your vids! Crazy how that one skipped off the ground before hitting the jug!

[@thekentuckyrifleman]

Been a fan for years now and this is why!

[@taofledermaus]

thank you!

[@maxximumb]

Looks like the safety valve did it's job, venting the pressure instead of rupturing the tank. Great video as always guys. Thank you.

[@TherealMandingo]

Maxx B that's not a safety valve it's just a valve that got blown out and tore out the thread

[@RonJohn63]

It still prevented the more catastrophic tank rupture.

[@dannyakatrikerred7381]

Maxx B The burst disk had a 1/4" hole punched through it to fill it with water and it still ripped the valve and threads out 😲. 🇺🇸😎

[@fastamx069box8]

Everybody knows that Danny is a trick-shot star..! Danny supposedly has your back Jeff so just be aware of a stray Foster slug? And don't ever play him at 3-dimensional pool. He will bank a slug off of all six sides and sink every ball on the table. Danny is the man.. Actually, all of you guys are just awesome. And it's a pleasure to see the work you do. Thank you for bringing us informative videos. They're greatly appreciated.

[@dannyakatrikerred7381]

Robert Lang Thanks Robert, LOL 👍🏻. 🇺🇸😎

[@taofledermaus]

lol

[@wingzero7X]

The slow mo is always a treat. I'd love to see you guys make up some junk drawer/home made slugs and see how they are handleing in super slow mo

[@GuyFawkes-cv9dc]

Thanks again guys. Love starting my day watching you guys!

[@taofledermaus]

thanks Joey!

[@happytraveler6933]

Danny's the man with lil Tony! The bounce into dead center of that jug was a fun shot to watch (even if the bounce was unintended I would have owned it, like I meant to do that). Great job guys!

[@dannyakatrikerred7381]

Happy Traveler Yup. Thats my story, and I'm stickin to it 😉😉. 🇺🇸😎

[@jbolo5378]

Danny's the kind of guy who will leave you a one hour message on your answering machine like he's actually talking to ya

[@claudiodominguez.]

Whenever I'm stressed a TAOFLEDRMAUS video blast my cares away.

[@skinnyWHITEgoyim]

Danny was just being humble and gave the gallon jug a chance by ricocheting the shot instead of just shooting it...

[@kurco2905]

I'm glad this channel came back.

[@fredrumbaugh5160]

Love the super sonic shockwaves in front of the round as it flies towards the jugs

[@stacycecil3527]

Out lil' tony, off the ground, through the circle, nothin' but net.

[@dannyakatrikerred7381]

Stacy Cecil 😁. 🇺🇸😎

[@bmstylee]

Can I play guys?

[@JW--dc8ri]

Great video, always good to see deadeye Danny on the range!

[@MarkSeve]

Thank you for sharing. Thank you Patreons.

[@vharrald]

He really drilled that craftsman

[@rlbadger1698]

Thanks Jeff you do good work.

[@Dsdcain]

Of course *Danny* planned that bounce shot into the center of that jug. :) Really love the high speed video of the drill dancing in the air. Looks so cool. As always thank you guys for the videos. *:-)* *EDIT: Oh yeah like the Aquachigger reference. :)*

[@dannyakatrikerred7381]

Dsdcain A Chigger fan! 👍🏻👍🏻. I had no idea that slug skipped until Jeff posted this video 😲. Crazy shot for sure. 🇺🇸😎

[@angelpereiracampos9670]

Dsdcain y

[@TheloniousDrunk69]

i also appreciated the chig reference lol

[@CarolinaAnglingCo]

"I wonder if they'll take it back?" 😂😂 Jeff you guys always make me laugh

[@pooperdrop]

That high-speed of the slug bouncing off the ground was amazing!

[@mursalot]

I always catch myself holding my breath just before the shot goes off as if I’m the one pulling the trigger. Thank you for all of your amazing videos!

[@windhelmguard5295]

you shouldn't hold your breath while pulling the trigger, you should be exhaling slowly instead.

[@taofledermaus]

thank you!

[@stephensheridan6332]

I love it when these guys do long range shots

[@sethnielsen4630]

That dust trail the round was leaving looks awesome in slow motion

[@chrisdelarber8342]

Great trick shot!!

[@chipchaffee2416]

Great as always , you guys are very informative and a blast 😂to watch . Keep them coming

[@delizard523]

hell yes love the videos always waiting for the next one, thank you for all your work on these

[@flynbenny]

Good shooting Danny! Those 50 yard high speed camera shots were really cool, watching that shockwave travel in the dust (and the one that bounced off the ground) was fascinating.

[@shaneryan7066]

Another great video as always..... love this channel.

[@andie_pants]

What else can I say? Awesome as always, and just a lot of fun to watch.

[@The44justin44]

the shock wave on the ground made me smile.

[@cbbudy]

I saw my name on the Patreon list and I’ve never been prouder to support something in my life

[@taofledermaus]

thank you for your support!

[@toothless01]

Danny you never fail to impress brother, keep up the awesome shots. I really liked the drill shot.🤘

[@dannyakatrikerred7381]

Captnhowdy XD40 Thanks, I try 😏. 🇺🇸😎

[@HrZD16]

I'm amazed at how the piece of wood flipped on it's side after shooting the ballistics gel @ 3:36 mark. Gotta love shotgun physics.

[@andymsmith]

I think that your videos are super great you show everything fast to super slow awesome.

[@cyphre]

The ground shockwave when shooting low is so cool looking.

[@Fudmottin]

I really loved seeing the shock wave on the dirt as the slug flew over.

[@taofledermaus]

We'll do that more often now that is it hot and dry

[@MarkHahn]

Nice bank shot Danny! Great video as always! #keepoursecond

[@taofledermaus]

thanks for the nice words!

[@randomfox9970]

TAOFLEDERMAUS dang they don't make things like they used to its a shame they is discontinued but very interesting videos dude 💕👌🐾🐺💪

[@immichaelyeh]

All shells are beautiful! All ammo is beautiful! I love ammo

[@williambell9466]

You guys are awesome. So glad I found your channel

[@taofledermaus]

thanks William

[@doejohn8674]

Great bounce shot!

[@wessmann]

Awesome video I really enjoyed it especially the slow motion of the drill being shot good job

[@taofledermaus]

thanks!

[@jamesortiz5388]

Good to see Danny happy in his realm.

[@thedevildick1]

Awesome video Jeff! Liked it before I even watched.

[@MrBenski81]

Awesome shockwave footage mate!! Would love to see more of that!

[@whitetails4life1]

Love the slowmo cam! So cool

[@pudgip2855]

The gas cylinder filled with water was really cool, I also enjoyed the ballistics gel in the confined space. It was fun watching it explode

[@tokenride04]

Love seeing rare/NLA ammo being shot. Really cool seeing the dust being disturbed by the slug in slow motion

[@SurvivalRussia]

Thanks to the Patreons :) Good shootin' Danny.

[@taofledermaus]

thank YOU!

[@dannyakatrikerred7381]

Survival Russia Thanks Lars. Not the most awesome ammo I've shot. Very inconsistent ☹️. 🇺🇸😎

[@Chris-vu1kh]

Despite the inaccuracies they seem hard hitting great shooting

[@Bshwag]

You all probably want believe this. When re zeroing a rifle on a qualification range down at fort Benning I would bounce bullets off the top of a 4x4 200 yards out flat top berm, in order to figure out my elevation. Worked like a charm.

[@neckstumping]

As usual great stuff guys. Thanks.

[@taofledermaus]

thank you!

[@jmh1189]

Man, that high speed footage of the bounce was awesome!

[@taofledermaus]

thanks!

[@2l84t]

Ground swat with a slug . Well done!

[@davidbuchanan9967]

Excellent video Great information I rate it a #10

[@tbonebugam1]

Oh man awesome.

[@bryanmorrow7156]

Hell yeah, what a shot!!!

[@krishally5870]

Love your vids! great work!!

[@taofledermaus]

thank you Kris

[@PeaceLoveAndGuns]

Really cool shots in this video! I love the blast wave from the round going supersonic.

[@taofledermaus]

Now that it is really dry out, we'll do much more of that

[@brandonsprong706]

8.5 out of 10 pretty good video just not the best I've seen over all love the vids can't wait for the next one

[@shaminoranger8588]

Mr Fancy Pants skipping it into the bottle like that. Dam Buster Danny.

[@lucasbord1983]

Keep up the good work!

[@Kratos_God_of_50_BMG]

Slow motion destruction is awesome! Thanks for the video Jeff & Danny, those slugs are really good, though not the most accurate. I was hoping you’d shoot the lead plate with these!

[@TheKentuckyPatriot]

Awesome as always! Happy 4th fellas :-D

[@taofledermaus]

thank you!!

[@bobdinovo5827]

Great job guy's. Please keep up the great work!

[@taofledermaus]

thank you Bob!

[@brucecoleman7412]

Danny = Ricochet Rabbit! 10/10

[@IsThatJoeyX]

Saw that skip over on Full30. Another great video

[@Billthebaker420]

Great job guys, have an awesome 4th of July!

[@taofledermaus]

dang, 4th of July came fast this year!

[@buttholeChecker]

It’s always a trip seeing this location where you shoot, I live like a 10 minute drive from there. Great video as always.

[@taofledermaus]

You'll need to come out some time and take some shots.

[@buttholeChecker]

I was out there 2 years ago with my glock 21c. had a great time! been too busy with work to go out there. maybe later in the summer when I take a vacation. :)

[@CrystalDragon-wk9lc]

Catching the shockwave on the ground shots are great!

[@taofledermaus]

We'll try to do that more often

[@gabem6362]

I used shoot everything on my upstate NY property and your videos brings back great memories

[@kencurtis508]

Great video, thanks.

[@tiredlawdog]

I rate it very good, thanks. I've always been a proponent of slugs.

[@greggdavenport20]

Awesome job you guys do keep up the experiments Peace

[@JohnLloydScharf]

*The drill is a high tech representation of the human spine, for those who do not know ballistic substitutes.*

[@shanehopkins6333]

Video was awesome and thank you patreon supporters😉👀👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@markroper9269]

Great video!

[@armysapper12b]

I bought a case of those when I was stationed up in Washington state and have no issues so far.

[@brentkeller3826]

Trickshot on the jug with little Tony. "A little english on this here pool shot!"

[@scrumpyhunter8561]

Awesome again guys, very impressive

[@taofledermaus]

thank you very much!

[@Drinnan]

That bounce shot was great. Might not be the norm but it was impressive in slow mo

[@taofledermaus]

I don't think anyone could have noticed it bounced in real time!

[@mendostoner4880]

Dude I like the ballistic gel in the container that was a cool target should be in more vids and plz bring the clay block back

[@PlanetRylosIV]

I just realized something as I jumped online this evening and took a look at the little grey numbers next to my subscribed channel list... I always click on this one first out of everything else! Thanks for doing what you do! Always fun and satisfying to watch. Let me know where I can send "targets". I might have a few things lying around that would be fun to shoot. P.S. Just saw the skip-shot!... Danny's new nick-name! "SKIP!" ha haa

[@ArcticArsenal]

Those shock waves are cool to see. I don't know how you would do it, but it would be cool to see a slug moving over calm water.

[@killerta87]

Jeff I have been shooting lead foster slugs(Remington slugger 3" mag) threw my mossberg 500a 12ga for years hunting deer and have a very impressive record with them. To be honest my father shot the same setup before I could hunt and passed the gun down to me. Barrel isnt hurt one bit 30+ years later

[@Cross-EyedCyclopsBear]

Every video you guys have is 💰🏆😇

[@CCW1911]

Another great video, thanks!!!

[@taofledermaus]

thanks !!

[@redacted3911]

That was a great one

[@Reckec]

Nice shooting Danny. And I called that bounce on the 50 yard shot. The slugs were consistently low. Great video.

[@taofledermaus]

thanks!
