.45ACP vs. 3" 12-gauge

[Nor_Cal_Grown]

Not the "usual" a vs. b...... A pictures worth a thousand words:




Slug was recovered ~16" into victim. Slug 600g, 3,014(ft./lbs), .45 230g, 396(ft./lbs)

411?

A picture is not necessarily worth 1000 words if we don't know what it is... That is a very interesting photo though. Did the victim get shot with a .45 then again with a 12GA? Are you suggesting the two rounds collided in mid air and the 12GA pushed the .45 back into the guy that fired it? Was the 12GA shell loaded with a slug and a .45cal projectile? What am I looking at?

I was interested in the penetration of those Brenneke 3" "Black Magic" 600g slugs. So, while shooting with pistols at cans today, I took a dense oak log that was about 14" in diameter and shot it in the side @ 7 yards. The slug went right through. So I turned the log on its side, on top of a stump. Lengthwise, the log was 2' long. Shot it again, no exit hole, so I split the log with an axe to find the slug.

The slug entered, hit a FMJ .45 bullet about 10" in, pushed it aside, and continued another 6"s. Pretty decent penetration I would say. For reference, the FMJ .45 penetrates about 5" into this log @ 7 yards.

You thought it would be some crazy story of how I blocked a bullet from an assailant with my trusty 12-gauge, for ever ending the vs. debate.

This guy must be one of those writer that writes the last episode of a series and leave you azz hanging til the next season !!!!

how about I'd rather not find out and I'd prefer to live in an area where the answer to such a question did not matter in daily life. Maybe on weekends but not daily.

Interesting picture

So you drilled a log with a 45acp bit to the depth of about 5 inches.

Then with the predrilled 45 hole you redrilled it larger with the 12gauge bit to a depth of 16 inches
