We start off our series with the Hexolit 32. Unlike most of the shotgun slugs out in the world today, the Hexolit 32 is constructed of steel. If features six petals that fragment upon hitting soft tissue. These six petals fly off in a conical pattern and create seven different cavities. This round is intended for hunting large game, and it promises to take down any large body you may find in front of your muzzle. • This ammunition was given to us by one of our viewers. We would like to thank our buddy from the CalGuns forum for going out of his way to get us this ammunition. We couldn't have filmed this video without him, and it's nice to know we have such a great audience! If you'd like some ammunition tested you can always contact us below or on any of our social media pages. If you would like to send us a few rounds of your preferred ammunition, we can test it much faster and easier. • We have an exciting addition to our testing set up. I recently purchased a chronograph to measure the speed of our testing projectiles. • To test the Hexolit 32, we used the Remington 870 and a block of clear ballistic gelatin from www.clearballistics.com Clear ballistic gelatin is a synthetic substitute for the FBI recipe. It is far more stable, easier to reuse, and the clear gelatin allows us to get a better view of the damage. • ------------------------------------ • The results were quite interesting. The DDupleks Hexolit 32 Hunting Shotgun Load left the barrel of the Remington 870 at 1376 feet per second. This high velocity made the temporary stretch cavity roughly 9-10 inches. At the 1 inch mark the DDupleks Hexolit 32 began its expansion. By the 2 inch mark the six petals had all separated from the main slug. At the 2 inch mark the permanent cavity was roughly 4 inches in diameter. From there on the petals continued along their own paths in a conical fashion. • The high speed revealed that all but one petal exited the block. All petals retained their shape, and spun inside the block creating cavities that ranged from 0.25 inches to 1 inch. By the 10 inch mark the petals had stopped inside of the gelatin while the steel base slug continued on. At the 15 1/2 inch mark the wadding was found lodged inside of the block. This has been our farthest penetrating wadding to date. The rest of the slug continued out of the back of the 16 inch block creating a sizable 0.5-1 inch cavity as it went. • Overall the DDupleks Hexolit 32 performed just as advertised. Any soft body target would have faced immense power as they were stuck by the Hexolit 32, and survival would seem unlikely. The steel petals proved large enough to increase the damage considerably, and would have increased blood loss tremendously. The main steel slug punched a clean hole through the target which would have ensured maximum tissue damage. I would not only recommend this ammunition for hunting, but also for self defense use. • • ------------------------------------ • Music Used: Hammerhead - http://www.freestockmusic.com/
