PECKERHEAD THERMOBARIC Shotgun Slug - TESTED!
Video summary
Press to jump
- 0:04The host introduces a viewer-designed experimental projectile from Dice Man in Texas.
- 3:28Wet catalogs provide a paper target, with slow-motion footage showing the impact.
- 5:14A projectile curves in flight and clips the outer edge of a lead plate.
- 7:59An on-screen question asks viewers to choose their favorite target from the tests.
- 12:09The final test uses a block of ballistic gelatin.
TAOFLEDERMAUS puts Dice Man's latest creation through a range session that has viewers choosing favorites, not among the projectiles, but among the things they hit. Lead plate has its supporters. Others make the case for ballistic gelatin, wet paper and the information each reveals in slow motion.
The new upload, "PECKERHEAD THERMOBARIC Shotgun Slug - TESTED!", belongs to the channel's viewer-design series, "you make it, we mach it." Dice Man is identified as a designer from Texas, and the description says these experimental rounds were made for demonstration, not sale. The video moves through metal plates, wet catalogs and gelatin, with high-speed replays exposing details that the ordinary-speed shots barely register. One projectile curves in flight and clips the edge of the lead plate, giving those viewers asking for another test something specific to revisit.
It reached roughly 42,000 views in its first four hours. Across the channel, the week brought about 573,000 views and an unchanged subscriber count; today's viewing pace is a little below its usual level. Nearby in size, TFB TV is having a busier-than-usual day, while Military Arms Channel is quieter than normal.
The older viewer experiments remain important here. "LIQUID-FILLED Shotgun Slugs - We TEST them out!" has the strongest daily momentum of the three highlighted catalog uploads, followed by the Canadian wire-rope design and Brian's MAYHEM test. The liquid-filled experiment is nearly four months old, with an audience now beyond a million views.

Lead plate will always be my favorite!

@WahrheitMachtFrei.See it on YouTubeI like all the targets but favorites are the hard ones led steel aluminum, and the true workhorse star is that patio table

Lead Plate is my Fave. Least fave is the plastic mannequin used for distant shots.

@tobiasmott5457See it on YouTubeMy favorite target is the plain old gel test. Gel reveals a lot about a projectile.
