I think it's a bad idea in the form of a relatively low-numeric-valued kenetic energy from a 9mm.
As far as a shotgun, if the slug's multiple fragments act with as much force as 9mm's as certain buckshot does, then I think it is viable... but not for me.
In the end, another new item that draws on previous innovations and perhaps is nothing more than such.
Never attribute to malice that which can be explained by stupidity.
The shooter will always matter more than the gear ever will.
Stop relying on others to do the work for you.
Shoot more, worry less.

Re: New shotgun round
To me, "Automatically compensates for shooter error" is a way of saying "no need to practice."
Don't get me wrong, I like exotic rounds but more for fun (fruit/veggie carnage).
I'd only use them for defense once they've been proven & I ain't gonna be the beta tester for BGs :laugh:

Contrary to popular belief, you CAN fix stupid - it's just illegal.

Re: New shotgun round
It's not a shotgun round, but here is a new round that I have actually been trying to get my hands on. This one looks impressive.

In the second video, they state they are planning on making that round in a shotgun slug.

Re: New shotgun round
These AP-20 shotgun rounds are bad ass!!!
Something tells me they are not available in the US. I'd buy some in a flash if I could.

Re: New shotgun round
Anyone have a clue where to purchase these?
I've actually been looking around the past month.

Re: New shotgun round
I checked a few places online that sell the exotic shotgun rounds, couldn't find the AP-20 rounds anywhere else, just the one Mike linked.
