Thank you very much Patreon supporters!   Things are looking better. 

VERY powerful steel slugs, but HOW is it stable?

Comments

Great video on those dumbbell slugs. The damage to that Steel toe boot was AMAZING.

Ill trade u a iphone6 for that slug. Ill be honored to have a piece from the channel

Part of what I'm hinting at is get a hold of Air Force and FX, companies that are working on that slug technology and they very well may sponsor you.

That isn't your back yard? I can see mileage being a big deal. Plus all the shotgun shells. And the slow motion camera must have cost a bunch but that is my favorite part. You can actually see how the shot flies instead of just guessing.

You are way too modest Jeff, then again that is part of the reason I enjoy the stuff you guys make so much. No pretentious or fake behavior or anything like that. The feeling I get when watching your videos, is that I'm in the company of some good people that I would like to hang around with. To me that is worth a LOT more than anything else. Could the videos be more professionally made? Sure they could. Would I enjoy them as much then? Certainly not. The "what you see is what you get" approach is what makes the channel shine for me. Please keep doing what you do, the way you guys do it... Hey it is working out quite well here on Patreon. P.S. Have had a few back and forth comments/jokes with Gregg in the youtube comments, that were really funny.

Another cool video! Those slugs are heavy hitters alright!

Maybe if things get better and we get out of the red- we can afford to buy special things like that.

I've been thinking the same thing. I think I might give away a titanium slug - it's small and easy to mail, display, etc. but worth a lot.

It's a lot of time more than anything. I burn through a lot of gas driving all over the place to film. I have to travel about 70 miles each time I film something.

Thanks! I'm pretty amazed anyone would want to donate anything to us! lol

Amazing slug and some very good slowmo footage. Danny's shooting is as always excellent :-) More than 1500$ per month here now and it is well deserved. I so am happy for you Jeff and for everyone involved with this wonderful channel :-) Cheers guys

When the slug exited the blue propane tank, was that blue paint or shockwave?

I would say that some of the shot targets should make nice collectors to patreons.

My theory is that the first half of the "dumbbell" creates a trailing vortex that hold the trailing half in line. I also believe that aliens walk among us in their chipmunk form and my toes know quantum calculus, but like grandma always said: "Bring me another bourbon and put on Donny and Marie".

As big a following as you guys have, you might want to look at some air rifles as well. Innovation is very high right now, and air slug guns (that fire actualy bullets not pellets) are coming. Tofazfou is leading some of that development with a 217 caliber, and recently another airgunner made a 1400 yard shot on a 24 inch plate using an Air Force Texan 357. This is wild west time for high powered air guns, and with the testing you do & audience you have, I'd approach some of the major manufacturers & do testing of different bullets / slugs. Just an idea for keeping it fresh since you've tested so many shotgun slugs. High powered air rifles are a growth market, and still relatively unregulated (can use moderators without paperwork, for instance).

What are the expenses involved in making these videos? Once you have the cameras what parts cost the most?

Mark Trombley

Not too much, I just have a couple crappy air rifles.

TAOFLEDERMAUS

Usually not from the projectiles but sometimes water or ceramic piece flying back- hitting something full of water.

TAOFLEDERMAUS

Very cool! Are you guys still into airgunning?

Do you guys ever get any splash back from shooting things at short range?
