hello everyone this is jeff of
taofledermaus first off I want to thank
those taking the time to translate our
videos into their native language today
we'll be doing another test on the link
heavy-hitter slugs these are some of the
biggest heaviest and coolest looking
slugs we've tested now if you recall we
had some issues with the wadding x'
kind of stick into the tail ends of
these and causing accuracy problems so
Jerry sent us some slugs loaded with a
nitro car between the wadding and the
slug we'll be testing that batch to see
if that is an effective solution to that
problem
I also loaded some of the slugs with a
mixture of black powder and magnesium
shavings and then I installed a shotgun
primer to ignite it all on impact
welcome back later folks jeff is Officer
Greg back out here at officer Greg's
range hey today we're doing a sort of a
repeat we shot before from link slugs
the heavy hitter around you might
remember these earlier Jerry link was
from Orion sent these down he runs a
company called link slugs so I would
assume he makes looks so he sent us a
slug last time and this time we have a
new and improved complete slugs the
heavy hitter this time includes a nitro
car put in behind there Jeff will show
you a little bit better in the tabletop
and that nitro card is supposed to help
with wad release huh
good to have a good every liable wad
release anyway we also have one that
Jerry labelled fun evidently these are
not fun and fun the fun version has
magnesium tipped arounds let me show you
these little bad boys
these are magnesium tip surrounds with a
little primer tucked in there inside is
black powder magnesium capped it a
little primer what do you think those
are gonna do tell us right down there
below yes guess where the magnesium came
from oh it's from Matt it really is he
said have you have a little bag i
magnesium a couple you
ago okay nitro card first nitro card not
fun not fun yeah I'm ready Wow nitro
explosion broke the brick behind it
Wow well it looks like the nitro car
prevented the slug from sticking to that
plastic wadding but now we have the
nitro card stuck to the back of the slug
now the shot was a little low and to the
left so let's see how the exploding
slugs do
okay now the fun version the magnesium
exploding picture this one shoots
rainbows I've been hopefully colorful
rainbows okay I'm ready here comes the
slug in uh-oh it's tumbling around in
the air we don't want that to happen but
we did have an explosion on impact the
slug appeared to hit at about a 45
degree angle and the Shaw was a little
bit low so we've got no fun and a fun
version they both both hit a little low
cuz I was aiming here low and left for
the no fun version of a nitro card
version and low center you can kind of
see that it has started to bend that
metal plate okay again the nitro card
version okay I'm ready
Hey what is that half ounces obtained
they're all the shots taken today we're
out of a smoothbore shotgun so we didn't
have any type of spin stabilization
despite having the nitro card in there
this slug more or less flew sideways
didn't have very good external
ballistics at all
okay now exploding slug and I'm up and
running again we see the slug tumbling
through the air
I hate see and stuff like that but this
is how you resolve the problems take a
lot of shots fix the problems to take
more shots fix those problem and then
finally you have a perfected product a
r500 plate so edgy both times was aiming
right here in between these two little
Vaughn nipples first one
nitro card hit low left second one the
fun version with the magnesium and
black-powder hit dead center and much
closer that's weird the nitro car
doesn't seem to be helping much and
oddly this one has a bunch of black
residue and this one has some black
residue yeah
very strange okay nitro card versus left
plate edit holding right of the red dot
Gregg was aiming at the red piece of
tape and actually hit it this was one of
the better shots of the day still we see
the night ricard stuck to the tail of it
now the fun whoa well if anything the
exploding modification that I did to
these have been working consistently
that was a beautiful explosion there
it's interesting to see that piece of
burning debris and pieces of burning
magnesium flying away from there
all right so originally we had the red
tape here this round the this was the
nitrile cart round the non fun version
it hit point of aim point of impact
pretty cool and left a big divot in
there and left some LEDs lead slug
remains some leavings in there then we
rotated the slug de LED plate put the
red tape here at the top thought we had
missed I thought we'd missed and hit the
bricks of it back here but instead the
round actually hit low in center and
made another big crater down there in
the bottom pretty dang cool yep and
evidently from the slo-mo left a big
giant flash on them yeah nice big
fireball this thing makes a cool little
piece of like alien art look at that
yeah haizen knows shipping to be a
little expensive oh I think we ought to
mail this to 100th caller earth
demolition trance put this in a half but
there's an envelope and mail it to Matt
over a desecration range this is this
right on it you know we don't hate mad
at desecration ranch you just have fun
with all you guys who say mail
everything to Matt I guess the Christian
ranch - it's all I read it's buddy and
trust me when you say that you are about
the 800th person that have said that so
read the comments
yep 111 paddles back at you we're at
which which tape you're right in at the
red tape I'm gonna have at the top red
tape with nitro card okay I'm ready
whenever you are
now if you didn't know that Greg was
even at that piece of red tape above
that circle there you think that was a
pretty good shot it's about three inches
low and again the slug really wasn't
flying very good ballistically flying
kind of sideways this target consists of
five f-111 fairings and magazines in
between them now fun exploding one shoot
some fun but yes okay I'm ready and
something fell ten seconds later
okaythat's watch that again it's
important to note that greg was aiming
at a fresh part of the target the upper
third there
and fortunately the slug is flying at
about a 45 degree angle but look at that
explosion the explosion occurred between
the layers of the fairings and there
wasn't just magazine fragments coming
out there was chunks of the ferry
blowing out of that thing too so that
was a pretty substantial explosion all
right folks
bringing you the money shot first when
we were aiming for was the nitro card
that we aimed up here at the red red
tape with Dutch cents in the upright
position and of course we hit right here
in the dead center right next to the old
hole from last week so then we rotated
the damn thing
aim for the red tape and I'll be damned
if we didn't put it in the same hole
again and you saw from that one that it
was like an explosion inside with all
the confetti firing out the top and then
here's the cool thing metal shards of
aircraft fairing went flying
this one was airborne for like five
seconds before we finally heard it cling
cling to the ground oh good
anti-aircraft round you know if you're
flying across throw the back show the
back you know you see all the exit
wounds that big old tear that's three
rounds of course but this is how it
tears aircraft aluminum yeah like a 20
millimeter exploding shell so it's
pretty good it looks kind of cool on
video too on high-speed yeah that would
be cool if it was a 50 yards and we were
trying to put all rounds right there in
the center no but those are three
different shots at three different times
three different angles yeah that's like
a slug magnet slug magnet not a bad band
named slug magnet opening for corn this
summer
