Did he ever say what the powder load was?

I only saw the total weight, not the powder load. Maybe I missed it.

I imagine those bullets just tumble through the air.

That load was made to look badass visually, in reality the performance would be lousy except at very close range as demonstrated and even then it looked like some of the projectiles bounced off the dummy. Some neophyte may be impressed by the look but anyone who knows anything about shot shell ballistics or ballistics period see that demo as a dumbass stunt!

Buckshot made from hevi-shot is where it is at if you are wanting to use multiple projectiles to get the most out effectiveness out of a shotgun especially at range.

What about the dimes flipping through the air . Don't ever try this ! Someone could get hurt . The plain old shotgun slug did more damage than the load from hell .

Think I'll stick with 00B for my home defense.  I've seen what that can do to a coyote at 20 yards, it ain't pretty.  I'd like to find some single 0B.  Remember reading something about it's almost 33% more effective.
