I was at a friends house and saw some interesting rounds that he had picked up at a gun show.
They are 12 ga rounds that have been shortened to 1.5 or 1.75 inches. They have a substantial charge and shot load that varies from buck shot to mixed loads.
I believe that he had a slug in this configuration also. The nice thing was that his standard 870/500 shotgun almost doubled in capacity.
He has tested them for cycling and accuracy at range and is satisfied that they are up to the task.
I am unaware of a brand name but am considering finding a few boxes for myself.

These things? http://www.midwayusa.com/produ...11-pellets-box-of-20 I wonder how well they feed (or not) in different shotguns.

I personally have Hevi-Shot BB loads in a compact shotgun for uninvited visitors, and I miss having a big German Shephed/Akita around too.


Not sure of the brand but that is likely the product. I'd like to run quite a few through a shotgun before trusting them. My buddy likes them and has had no problem out of his Pump.
