The Gamespike Shotgun Slug Experiment

This video documents another experimental shotgun slug I came up with. I thought the flared base of the slug would provide stabilization, both from air drag and by acting as a flywheel when the round was fired through a rifled barrel or rifled choke tube, while the narrow core would provide low drag and good penetration. In practice, I couldn’t get them to stabilize, so it’s another idea that didn’t work, but it was an interesting experiment all the same.
