ROLLER BEARING Sabot Shotgun Slugs - British Brilliance!

  • Today we test out some projectiles sent from England, a first! Leigh did a great job keeping this design in spec using very unorthodox materials. We discuss how much attention is paid towards precision and the many other factors that make a huge difference between making a precision projectile and just stuffing stupid things in a shell. Like we mentioned, we are very backlogged on getting to all the viewer-submitted stuff and it might take MONTHS before we test them.

      Good shooting Text! I wonder where his real aim point was?
      He needs a three colored laser pointer. Set one for the scope at 13 yards, 25, and 50? Different colors for three points of aim. Just turn it on for the camera, because we already know he's spot on.

    Hey guys, great episode, as always 😉👍🏻.
    Dunno if another brit has said how Leigh is pronounced, but here in the UK it's Lee, not lay or lie.
    Excuse me for saying so, but does Officer Greg realise a lot of his humour is quite sarcastic. A particularly British trait, and very funny to listen to.
    I imagine it's a possible mannerism used in his role as a police officer - nothing surprises him anymore.
    Anyway, keep the weird and wonderful rounds, or bullets, or projectiles coming. It's always good to see you blokes enjoy shooting shotguns just for the hell of it. Cheers👍🏻
