[QUOTE="soberups, post: 1253655, member: 14668"] Looks like a high-tech version of a "bolo" shotgun round, which has been around for awhile and is little more than a gimmick. Penetration of this round will be [I]extremely[/I] poor; the total mass of the projectile is being [I]divided[/I] into thirds while at the same time the total surface area is being [I]multiplied[/I] by thirds. To put it another way...if I were to throw a 1 lb. rock at you as hard as I could from a distance of 10 feet, it would hurt you pretty badly when it hit. But, if I threw 1 lb of [I]sand[/I] at you from the same distance...it wouldnt hurt you at all. [/QUOTE]
