3 balls from a 12 or 2 balls from a 50

I’ve searched and can’t find the “sabot” in the video. I would like to find some of those and try to repeat their results.

Fiocchi, Remington Gun club, *12*, some some that say made in USA and and white colored. Remington Super X.

They are all 2 3/4 " and the (shot cup) is on top of the powder and the balls in that.
Then I place a cork disc on top of the cup and balls and crimp the top shut.
Perfect height.
Blue Dot for the powder.

If the sun comes out tomorrow I will go shoot them at a board and over a chrony and see if cases make a difference.
I do know this the shot cup falls into the new white shells and range pick up shells you must apply pressure to seat it.

There was one brand of hull I could not seat the shot cup all the way down because the plastic base
cup in the hull.

So let me get this straight, first you cup the balls and then you crimp the cap?

You forgot to PUSH IT IN.

And sometimes it is tight and sometimes if falls right in.

a beehive round?

You can buy those flechette's to load your own, but I've read where they aren't very effective from a shotgun. The ones out of a 105-howitzer sure are though.

Those would be fun with braided wire connecting both/all three!

You can buy those too from speciality stores.

I have several hundred 12 ga felt wads one could stack between balls to simulate the bullet train. Pour some cornmeal or something around them to keep centered in the shell.
Edit: If swampratt wants to try some, I'll mail them for free.

“Specialty”.

“Specialty”.

Yep! That specialty store cheaper than dirt that I would not deal with if I had no ammo and an army was approaching.
