What happens if you shoot aluminum foil balls out of a 12ga? Quite a few viewers suggested we shoot some compressed aluminum foil before and Kirsten Joy Weiss just sent the suggestion to me just yesterday. Since we were planning to shoot anyways, I quickly made enough balls up for the test.

And a surprise inside ππΌhome defense π«ππΌ
How many grains of powder are you using and what kind for the push charge for a quarter ounce load ? Iβm loading some clay slingshot (buckshot) balls off Amazon that are .38-.40 caliber. I used 15 grains of clays, maxi powder card, 1/2 ounce of shot and filled with buffer then recrimped.
Not really a new thing. We took the foil from our parents cigarette packs when we were kids to make these balls. That was 45 years ago.
I donβt know much, but I do know that aluminum is a whole lot lighter to carry!
If they are so accurate why did you not move your target further away?
I went into this video thinking, "cheap, non-lethal, home-defense round". WRONG!
Aluminum ball inside a shotgun shell huh?
What about small 1Γ1 lego blocks inside a shotgun shell? Stepping on a lego block hurts but I can't imagine the world of pain getting shot at with legos
Thanks again.

Imagine if this hit and pierced someoneβs skin, the pieces and shards of aluminum would get stuck in the the wound and skin
Magnesium and steel wool.
Wrap up some magnesium, shavings, foil, or solid pieces in steel wool. Then shoot that out of the barrel.
I'm thinking The Zing sound came from the piece of that plate that was knocked loose, about like a coin being thrown at supersonic speed.
Why not just melt the aluminium π and pour it into moulds?
definitely warrants a ballistic jell capture shot
I've often wondered what would happen if you used aluminum foil as a slug. That was mighty neat!
Oh yeah! Everybody loves stuff blowing up being shot in super slow mo!
Love your videos!
I'm sure that the construction of the ball has very much to do with it's shredding!
Hey Jeff, I seen a deal on TV about shooting spark plugs from a 12 gauge to defeat bullet proof glass. Can you try this and see?
Chinese ball bearings
6:27 enjoy

Man that clay block was one of the best shots ever. Thank yβall for all your hard work. πβ€οΈπΊπΈ
No one at π₯π has lightweight balls.
Have you tried salt!
People naturally want to put their fingers in holes
Aluminium and Gorilla glue to stabilize the ball.
This is why I love shotguns… but I'll stick to 1 oz lead.
I think it's time for some compressed thermite rounds…maybe with some magnesium strips to facilitate ignition?
Nice surprise footage !!
Amazing! However, even a lifghtweight box of kleenex can take the top of your head off when your vehicle stops suddenly from 75mph as it flies off the space below the rear-windscreen where people commonly and negligently leave them. Physics! That thing that no-one seems to consider
I'd sure hate to be hit with one of those. There's more damage than I would have expected.
You've been recycled π
Great video, thanks.
Kentucky ballistics, I've only heard of them through demo ranch, I may or may not have a demo ranch pfp
Please run this through a crony to see how fast it is going. What is the weight of an aluminum ball?
That was funπ
Perhaps put birdshot inside the foil ballπ±
Lmao, the OG finger.
Would that soda be taxed in places with sugary drink taxes? It wasn't used as a beverage.
WOW THAT WAS AMAZING ! Did you put anything inside while you were rolling it up ? I would imagine rolling a sinker in it 1st to give it a little more weight would be devastating as well ! Watching pieces unravel was Kool ! Thanks Guys !
Funny when the jets came by. You two went in to the "Squirrel" mode hahahaha
I like this vids but watching you guys handle guns is bothersome
How is it we Papas Americans know what is valuable for others but cant manage our own lives I mean like for instance myself how much time I waste watching people waste time resources and. Perfectly good ammunition when they could give that ammo to starving children in . Guatemala to shoot there leaders who have for years…… haha aluminum indeed
Kirsten is on my subscription list
How much powder was needed to reload these and were 410 hulls used in this video???
And here's me trying to make aluminum foil out of shotgun slugs
Say "No homeaux!"
Is that real orange juice?
No.
Pew
Batman should consider a shotgun with aluminum foil slugs to deal with Clayface…
I think I came up with idea for less than lethal buckshot get a bunch of pencil erasers n load that up in the shells π
