Cut shells. How to turn a #8 shot into a .70 caliber Glaser Safety shot. I don't think this would work well in a pump.

Repost but still cool
hehehe, guess what i'm doing next time i go to the range. thanks for the info.
Right when I talked myself out of that break barrel in the trading post. Thanks a lot.
I think it'd work even less well in an autoloader...Quote:

rather than cutting it by hand, if a controlled depth cut was made at a strategic location- then it could hold together better while loading, but still separate on ignition.
pressure would be higher, too- since it's forcing a larger diameter "package" down the barrel.
I posted this before I thought it through. Check your gun. A full choke is a kaboom waiting to happen here. If you have no choke or a light one you might be okay. As I understand it, shotguns do have a chamber which the shell fits into. You'll be getting a pressure spike as part of the shell compresses into the barrel.
This supposedly goes way back and was the poor man's slug round long ago. I don't know if I would do it, only having pump guns, but it is worth knowing.

Thats interesting. Would be fun to try.

in the video, he said his shotgun had a modified choke...
and on a pump gun, that's why I was curious about a controlled-depth cut, rather than the slit that he made hanging by 1/8" or so... may hold together in a pump... what's the worst that could happen?[Muaha]
neat trick, anyway...
I will try it in my pump and take a video hopefully tomorrow or the next day
let us know all the details about your gun as well and the brand ammo and size shot etc. I am curious about this as well.
