hello everyone this is jeff of taofledermaus today we have the tech rim
comfort 30 to fragmenting shotgun slug instead of being made for deep
penetration this is designed to break into poor fragments kinda like a hand
grenade going off inside the target this is a lead slug and it's attached to the
gas piston which acts as a stabilizer to help keep it flying straight through the
air without the stabilizer it weighs in at 35 grams and with it 38.5 welcome
back to a later folks Jeff and officer Greg out here with young probably what
is the last shoot of 2017 spasiba yeah what he said hey today we're shooting a
slug sent to us by Alexey Lavrov from a Leningrad Russia some of you might also
call it st. Petersburg this slug is very similar to a brenneke ko slug in that
it's a rifled slug and a little dimple in the top to make it a hollow point
however this slug has been segmented from the factory into four pieces and
compressed back together into one big slug so its design is to fly like a slug
in the hid and impact and break into four pieces so it should cause some
significant damage we're going to give two different versions of this to try
today we're going to start with a 30 grain and then jeff has also loaded up
at 35 grain we're going to chronograph him through his new caldwell chronograph
that you patreon supporters helped us buy and then also downrange you're gonna
see the ISIS spice rack little known fact when Isis vacated rock
up they left all of their cooking utensils so we're gonna take out Isis
spice rack with this is a spice rack by the way would make a great name for a
salsa band so the felonious Isis spice rack nurses the comfort round this is
called the Comfort round let's see how comfortable this is okay thirty grain
chronograph tests mostly whenever you're ready what the heck now we got some
really goofy very high cronograph readings which were definitely not
correct it could have been all that smoke going over the top of it so moving
the chronograph back might alleviate that hopefully the chronograph isn't
shot because we only use it one time before when you are 2664 2664 this is
the 35 grain heavy load and you can see a lot of oscillation with this look
doesn't really seem to affect the accuracy a whole lot but we would like
to see a little more stable aerodynamics
30 grains running over the cronograph again everything lined up good
edy gauge Wow hurt some fragmentation sounds 2788 on
the chrony no wait that can't be right the point of this shot going through
this ballistic gel was the show even that small amount of gel will cause
these slugs to fragment into all those different pieces it seemed to function
very well exactly the way it showed in the photo in the brochure
okay 35 grain whenever you're ready
through that thing a long ways this is the 35 grain load and he almost did the
same hole back and again we had that textbook fragmentation of the slug
okay we are going to do space launch it comes at a teens okay I'm ready
okay which flashlight are you going for
okay I am ready Oh what about fifty yards in Oh Greg was kind enough to
bring out his broken technical flashlights watch the center one the
flashlight actually snaps in half and ejects the battery out and those pieces
did fly quite a distance close to fifty yards away and I don't think it could
have survived right being rubbed by a tactical truck either or drop by a
tactical helicopter okay so you're going for the the firemen I think for the
firemen first if he survives we'll put him in the truck okay I am ready I think
you got him now besides this being a fun goofy target this gives you an idea how
accurate the slug is shooting less than twenty yards away but still not bad
accuracy at all
okay let's see if we can send one right through the grill all right okay I'm
ready there you go I have some pieces yeah
you're fired
this is just a pot that came with my Keurig coffee maker I never used it so
hey make a great target wouldn't it
okay wet magazine fragmentation test 30 grains first okay I am ready oh yeah I
thought we'd get two shots out of that
so that is a gory entrance wound this is pretty consistent what we've seen all
day I was aiming for right here and he hit a little bit low a little bit left
tore through these magazines
it's our standard three inches of magazines dry then we soak them and they
swell up it's about five-and-a-half inches but if
you look right here it almost looks like we're getting multiple pieces now okay
coming through there's winter nothing fancy right there
assassin's Creed and nutnfancy and there's your plastic wad okay one of the
LED segments remember these things are breaking up into force four equal
quadrants that's one of them it's a little deformed yeah it's a decent
decent chunk of lead flying through yeah yeah there's another little piece of one
that's lit not paper what else is in here this was our back page okay this is
the very back and it looks like it's stretched and it obviously blew the tape
off but it did not puncture through here okay so it didn't go through but it blew
everything apart you know it wrapped in duct tape so inside there's probably
more some fragments if we had time to look for
okay I'm ready when you are wow this is a bet nineteen five pound gummy bear
very tough and again we wanted to show how the slug fragments when it goes
through a plushie target like that worked absolutely perfect and by the way
it through this gummy bear so far it gives you an idea how much energy
transfer was going on inside the fair so I hit him low in his little jelly belly
we're actually aiming for right here and hit a little oak which has been
consistent I should aim higher now at the back we see oh this we saw
earlier on the other gel block it's pulled the four little segments I think
this is my prediction as those four little segments are separating and
actually pulling the material in between them out with it because we saw this
little tail on that gel block - yeah that's wild
and that was this the thirty green one right it's one sticky tail I get that
little guy yeah end of it back in there insert comments here see all the way
through that all the way through his little bear buddy Wow
okay we got two thirty fives left so we're gonna shoot him up about forty
yards here seal the group whenever you're ready
okay we'll take another one see how they do okay
forty yards this thing was already here that's our first thing sideways there's
like acorn shape that's the best way to describe it or a bell shape they must be
doing the walk to see through the air or some you know or just flying you know
oscillating a lot very odd though but accurate that thing's a dessert plate
size sticker at forty yards not too bad yeah six inch there you go there's your
long shot forty yards
