My paternal grandmother was born in 1888, she told a tale of loading the muzzle loading shotgun with bacon rind to chase the bull yearling away from chewing the well rope. She said the bacon caught fire and stuck to the bull's rump the poor bovine took off bawling and never molested the well rope again! "rlol"

Never heard of it or tried it, but it sounds yummy. Especially the lima beans and squirrel.

I want a round that fires bacon out the barrel. When the BG stops to eat the bacon, I will run away.
Could also be very effective against Islamo-Terrorists.

The biggest thing I noticed in the video (the parts I could bear to watch, that is) is that this ammo guarantees a miss almost every time. You aim for center mass & the bullet breaks into 3 projectiles that immediately fly apart and hit at least 7" from your point of aim.

Added to that is that each projectile is only 1/3rd the weight of the original bullet. In the case of .45 ACP, a 230gr bullet breaks up into three 76gr "flying wings". How much penetration do you think you'll get from that light a projectile, flying at maybe 850 fps and hitting the target broadside?

No thanks. This stuff makes a neat pattern when it hits a paper target, but it's just going to tick off a real BG.

:iagree: Not to mention, when the string acts as a "net", it is going to further restrict penetration...even if it comes detached. The energy lost from snapping the string will undoubtedly affect penetration.

wanted a bullet that would boost his chances of hitting his target.
That already exists. It's called practice.
