The 8 Penny Shotgun Slug of the Apocalypse - TESTED! 

It's my understanding that YT now prevents people from using ad-blockers, which I don't agree on, but to lessen the annoyance of the ads I removed about 4 mid-roll ads that YT automatically stuck in there. If I can I still make a little money with fewer ads, I can probably remove more ads. Remember, the ads help pay my bills so I appreciate your understanding.

For the first time ever, ammo that gets cheaper the worse the economy gets.

That gives new meaning to the phase, "Money Shot!"

The combination of Jeff's "magic bullet" and Greg's amazing marksmanship shot them green beans into the next dimension!

To hell with your two cents! I got eight right here!

I would like to see the ballistic gel test done again but with the pennies stacked without glue

"Here comes the money shot" he said before shooting this round

Certainly that's the fastest Abraham Lincoln has ever gone.

Penny home defense.... officer: did you shoot the intruder? Response: No Sir. but he did steal a bunch of coins from me by hiding them in his body 🙂

Those eight-penny slugs are not only impressive, they're obviously worth every penny! Well done Jeff! 👍 And, good shooting, OG! 👍

I'd be interested to see them soldered together, especially the old copper coins.

Copper has a unique ability to pressure weld. The first stack of pennies that you used were loaded loose but by the time they left the barrel it was a single cohesive slug.

When Greg accounts for aereolus effect... does he end up with purple nurples!?

That is probably the cheapest projectile available. They're also lead free.

"Make like a baby, and head out!" You guys always make me laugh

From now on, if you use hot glue, I think you should be obligated to use some glitter as well! Once the glue cures, you might be able to tap a stainless screw through the nose for a possible penetrator. Also, if you plan to continue testing on this line and want to boost velocity but are worried about flight separation, you might be able to maximize the glue effect by sticking the formed slugs in an Easy-Bake-Oven nose down for a bit to help even out coverage. GREAT video! Thanks guys! Be safe out there.

I love OG's sense of humor. Pretty cool, when i worked for Fedex, i made a knife out of 4 gift cards glued together, and used a bench grinder to make it serrated. I had to pass through a metal detector, the guards never found that knife

They didn't just nail it with these slugs, they 8-penny nailed it!

Great video as usual, I loved the extra bit at the end explaining the process, testing and the water drops, it would be cool to see more of them in the future, it really helps visualise what the slugs are doing

It's nice to see that you were able to turn the tide using the strong application of common cents.

Nobody likes eggplants! Shoutout to Kentucky Ballistics.

I've been watching since the days of shooting wingnut screws at locker doors, we've done stacks of coins a few times now. It was cool seeing new variables thrown in.

I found a guy that sells something he calls a penny punch. It resizes the penny to 7.25 and puts a dome in it for stacking in 12 gauge shot shells for the DIY slugger community.

You videos with Greg are some of the highlights of my week, always fun and entertaining, thank you!

I caught my dad chewing pennies and spitting them out. I said, "Dad, what the hell are you doing?" He replied, "Im making us rich, son." "How?" I asked "Simple," he said, "I'm making bit coins"

Most people just give their two cents, you gents give us 4x that.

Have never been disappointed by any of your video's. Even those with many failures are entertaining and educational. The performance of the pennies was very interesting, not what I expected. Thank you for great content.

I have seen a s-ton of your videos. This one was entertaining and fun as hell! Thanks for all the production work on these!

OG is Looking good! Brother has been working hard on getting his weight down!

Ive been looking forward to seeing a succesful coin stack projectile. Excellent work!

Great video & great idea! OG Gregg is too funny. All the best Taofledermaus vids have OG Gregg quippin'!

Good to see OG looking pretty casual. Thanks guys!

18:56 wow 6 inches is pretty long. 5 inches must seem just about as long if you aren't measuring, right fellas?

Weird, got green beans in my yard.

Thanks. This was a very enjoyable video. I was amazed at the accuracy of these penny slugs. Thanks again for all your hard work.

Great video, subject, shell construction, shooting & commentary Jeff & OG, thank you!

I've always loved your videos but this one takes the cake. Glad I stick around till the end for your process and I might have even found a use for all the pennies that are hardly worth putting in sleeves.

8:59 "NOBODY LIKES EGGPLANTS!!"

I liked this video as much or more than any of your past videos, which means that I think it was a great video and highly entertaining! Thanks to you and OG!

i've watched quite a few of yer'alls' vids, & this has been the best one yet, with all the engineering stuff for this load. slick!!

Impressive ammo, Jeff made some penny dreadful slugs. OGs aim is to be commended too. Good post, thank you 👍

Now that was just flat out fun to watch! Love Ballistics both internal and external. But still a little shade tree designing and experimenting is always interesting. Doesn't always work, but when it does, it is a Hoot!!! Thanks Guy's! KnifeMaker but

They performed a lot better than I thought they would. This is always the most interesting kind of videos to me. Thank you guys 👍🏻

Great video!!! Been watching this channel forever. Good job.

Fascinating video! I love your creativity, as well as your and Officer OG's humor. A great youtube channel. Long may you reign.

Using the same principle of making the cones. You could do the same with the steel slugs found on job sites when electrical contractors leave. (The knock out discs on panels and sockets). These would be great slugs for hog hunting or even deer hunting in close.

Great video..those penny slugs surprised the hell out of me..very accurate..awesome video..one of my favorites..keep em coming..thanks

Those were some impressive results from you guys. Love your content. Keep up the good work.

They performed well they remind me from when I was younger when I lived at the lake I used to make a lot of different types of projectiles with hot glue and stuff inside of it I would mold it with whatever I wanted to send down range inside the glue not just for shotguns but also muskets and even 22rimfire blanks my favorite was slingshot ammo slugs I would take a metal ball bearing and drop it into hot glue melted in the shape of a slug in a mold made in Play-Doh from an actual slug and it would sink to the very nose of the slug mold which would keep it super stable in flight nose heavy like a dart

I did not expect any type of accuracy out of these. Wow amazing another good production boys.

I love the stuff you guys try. Thanks for all you do.

Not only did you get some change when OG shot the lead plate, but you've created a very good long range can opener.

Now I'm curious how the stacked pennies without any glue will do in the gel block. Considering the glued together stack didn't appear to tumble I expect the result would be similar, but I'm not confident enough to bet on that.

What a round! Total shock to me personally having seen the original dime shot back in the day. Good to see you back? OG!

There's no replacement for Greg's antics. Great video

Neat! Is it just me, or does Greg look younger? I am concerned that due to inflation, this ammunition loses quite a bit of value between when you fire it and when it hits the target. I am never tired of watching things get hit by a slug, and these ones look to be impressive!

This is a brilliant idea! Out of all the slugs you've shot I think these resized pennies are the most viable

Jeff and OG y'all rock! 8 cents slugs, I'm impressed. Love the channel and content. Peace

The water drop test was really interesting and shows again how much work goes on behind the scenes - thanks

I’m so proud you cracked the code on using coin currency as ammunition bud. I’d love to see you experiment on other coins. Even unglued, the pennies fly in a great column to mimic a slug. Rounding them like you did desperately needs more experimentation with other metals. I hope some machinists at watching and devising what’s best described here as a rounded disk column load. Edit: after more views and brainstorming, I realize that you could drill a hole through the center of the stack and fit a nail or core inside, using putty to keep it all together. Plus, the way the pennies are rounded, you can also put two together to make a chamber you can fill with wax and shot for more weight, using a nail to again hold it all together.

10:01 It would be the best thing ever if someone, somewhere, found and mailed in a blimp shaped steel mold to fill with molten lead. I really want to one day see a "Lead Zeppelin" gag. 😂

The return of the finger wiggle!! Classic. Great stuff as always, keep em coming

excellent video, one of my favourites. keep up the good work and goofy humour

I do some craft stuff and gorilla hot glue works really well, that stuff is strong. It's kind of amber color. Not expensive either, got a pack of 38 or something for $8.

Cheap and effective. Pennys on the head. Reason i have and do shoot stacked dimes is for they're patterns. Cover alot of area well. And if only 2 dimes hit what I'm fighting off then that's 20 cents worth it. Love this channel and i thank you guy's for doing such great work. Sometimes i believe the rumors about you two being in village people disco group. Great shooting officer Greg, hate to come up behind u àn say BOO, Jeff u do great work building a goòd slug, and fliming it all go down. 1000 outta 1000 big man! Cents not dollars tho.

Thanks for explaining how you shaped the pennies in this project. I spend\t most of the video trying to come up with a way to do it. So simple, I didn't figure it out.

Great video as always Jeff and OG. Pretty cool seeing a video that reminds me of your early ones

Paracord slugs? One screw, wrapped with paracord. Melt it into shape with heatgun. Make a mold. You can do it! Great upload thx!

With inflation, the 8 cent slug now costs about -$22.00😂 profit!

Another great ammo video. I do appreciate you guys for the very interesting videos you make for us! I am ready for some heavy slugs, maybe some made with brass and or tungsten. The ones with a piece in the center never seems to work, especially with the weights being different. I loved the ones with 12 ga Brass Lehigh Defense shaped slugs. Maybe use some 50 caliber sabot slugs from Lehigh defense. I'd love to see some holes all the way through the lead plate. OK, love your videos , always have , always will! Keep pulling those triggers.

Very interesting , I have watched you shoot several different types of homemade slugs and I think the penny slug was the best so far .

Did you try soldering them together? The weight would change. Better or worse?

Can we get a gel test on the pennies both glued and unglued?

Pennies away! Cool/neat exhibit guys. Thx Greg and Jeff. Be safe guys😊

Love it I was really interested that it stayed together. As always stay safe out there

You need to get ahold of the government. You might be able to bail out the current Administration with its inflation problems😂

RU-vid has become soulless.

that board in the first shot is a great medium to shoot at for unstable projectiles. really shows nice detail of how they hit

The negative pressure from the rear of the dome shape kept the loose penny's together, cool.

*An interesting (and cheap) follow up* would be to take cheap bird shot shells, dump the lead shot out onto a block of wood in shallow but bottomed holes in it, melt the pellets in place to become discs, then bend the lead discs to the correct size, stack + glue, then shove the resulting slug back into the same hull they came from, using the original powder charge, re-crimp and see how those do. Could a slug made from bent + stacked lead discs be as economical and perform better than wax slugs?

I made a load for my beer can howitzer that has $4.50 in pennies , waiting for a camera and a microphone that is Downrange... I think it will sound crazy. I am getting almost 1500fps from A 2.2 pound can of concrete.

Good to see OG back.

Jeff, is your glue gun rifled or smooth bore? This could affect the pattern of the glue. ;)

I commented on your last video. Was just wondering if you would be able to test the ballistics and penetration of 9 mm hollow point 9mm hollow point with a steel bb I just thought you guys could make an interesting video with that😂❤

good to see OG back!

Thank You for entertaining and educating us all

There was some pretty impressive performances today from everything & everybody involved with todays ballistic experiment . Jeff's inventive brain conceived and allowed him to create a surprisingly accurate slug for literally pennies . OG once again showed that for all the ribbing He gets about his shooting his aim is spot on and the consistency of results proves the hits weren't just luck , and his sense of humour really exemplifies the fun so many shooters get from this great hobby/sport. Well done Guys . Thank You for yet another excellent entertaining and informative tutorial on the ballistic capabilities of unusual projectiles . Catch You next time . Shoot Straight Stay Safe & Stay Well .

Great video! Innovating idea using Pennie’s.

Excellent video guys. I had high hopes for this when I saw the teaser on Facebook.

thank you for taking care of the a.i. problem.

One of your better videos. Thank You

This video really caught my eye because I had just remodeled my bedroom and ran out of washers I need for some of the trim. A bag of 6-10 washers is just over a dollar before tax. Pennies cost a penny each if you drill a hole in the middle, and look much cooler.

couldn't ask for a cleaner hit on them beans, props to the OG

I always enjoy watching your videos. So very informative and entertaining. Keep up the great content.

The thing that keeps bringing me back to your videos is Greg’s sense of humor. The shooting and rounds are great to see. But Greg saying some of the stuff he does tops it off. He reminds me of my best friends grandpa, just on the edge of inappropriate but always funny. Keep up the good work guys.

The puncture patterns of the dimes on the cardboard are like taking a snapshot of their flying actions, that's a really cool perspective! Paint on it but leave the holes as if the holes are the flying dimes in the painting

Found your videos a few days ago. Love y'all content! Subbed

Glad to see y'all made it back from your trip safe Greg.

Looks like an effective and affordable slug, thanks for all you guys do!

Enjoyed it guys! Thanks😊
