We used to shoot arrows out of shotguns when we were young and stoopid.
Never could find the arrows.

Not sure what the expected use is.........

Yeah..I don't know if it's for people who can't use a bow to hunt or just people being creative. Someone posted it in a group I follow of women hunters. And I found it interesting.... And of course if they make the shelves I would have try em out lol

 

[bbbass]

Would they be legal for a disabled person during bow season????

If only the Sioux had that back in the day during the great white invasion....

Don't let Sue any where near those!!! She might accidentally have a discharge of a sharp object during my great white invasion and then I'd have to sue Sue...

In my testing, if they were lined up just right, you could skewer 3 enemy with one shot.
And they could not duck in time to avoid the hyper-velocity arrow.

Shades of Squiggly Down Under!!!

So it would've been the ".50 BMG" of the time... had it been a thing.

Not without a specific regulation allowing some sort of firearm launched broadhead to be used by a disabled person and I doubt anything like this exists currently.

Yeah, I think it would defeat the purpose of bow season and not be allowed.

But apparently it is an antipersonnel round. Amazing. I've seen some flechet rounds but I don't remember much about them.

I am sure this is how it will be touted if it ever makes it to the ammo shelves.

Basically another answer to a problem that does not exist - kind of like the 'Accelerator' .22 sabot ammo, the LeverEvolution ammo (varying opinions) and no doubt a few other things I cannot recall at the time.

Okay, just another toy.

I've had fun loading .22 sabot for my .308.... they scream out at 4000fps but are not very accurate. Up close, I bet they'd put a hurt on a 'yote for sure!! Not accurate enough for chucks laying down at 250yds tho.

With a bowfishing arrow, you could poke 'em and reel 'em in for interrogation.

The description in the video says it's supposed to be a low recoil, subsonic, suppressor compatible, non-toxic round for limited range hunting. It seems to be trying to fill the earth friendly, organic, don't disturb the natural tranquility hunting round niche. I predict the man bun crowd will flock to It in droves.

I think I'll just stick with this....thank you.

Poke em n smoke em! But that round looks like it would just smoke em right there in the water!! I'd like to have some meat left...

 

[TTSX]

Well...... Ok. Neat idea, send like a solution looking for a problem. Don't think you're gonna improve a whole lot on a standard ounce of lead
