Will it super-sonic?   CO2-type capsules

Comments

Hey Jeff, maybe you should put together a compilation video showing all the times you've loaded a shell "backwards" or "wrong" and had it re-orient in flight to the proper trajectory. I know I've seen it happen on other vids, and it would help with all the nay-sayers here and on YouTube.

You should sell duct tape hats like Danny's. Shabby Chic!

I agree with the above statements. They were loaded Backwards. the tapered end should have been in the shot cup. You may need to use 3 inch hulls to make it work.

Wait - what? Loading the capsules with the drogue facing forward? The tassels are supposed to provide drag to keep the round end of the capsule facing forward; putting the tassel facing forward destabilizes the capsule by introducing an off-center drag component. Is there some reason for reversing it? Would the shot cup rupture against the smaller nozzle end? (Edit: I spoke too soon - you answered that later in the video; there's got to be some kind of conformal cushioning - like a short cylinder or some such that the nozzle could ride in. I would also think that the effect of the drogue would take some distance to stabilize the capsule - like arrows take a while to settle down until the drag from the fletching aligns the shaft with the flight axis. 10 yards seems too short a distance for that to happen.)

Possibly a good container for the modern Gyrojet rocket projectiles, just add some fins or a spiral exhaust nozzle.

Very few people understand ballistics if they did no one would be able to sell a Magnum rifle round. When you try to accelerate an object to high speed it has to have correct center of gravity or it will have a mind of it's own

Should have bought a 10ga. If you have any left start adding lead.
