Testing Dragon's Breath shotgun ammo

Wasn't sure if I should post this in Shotguns, Ammo, or Training.
Quite educational.



First minute is just making ready. Actual shooting starts right after the one-minute mark.

Caused by unburned powder laying on the floor because the site doesn't sweep & mop the range floor.

Definitely. Similar thing happened at C2 in Tempe a while back, but theirs was due to powder accumulating in expansion grooves in the concrete rather than a lack of sweeping. Now they sweep in a different manner.

Agreed, but being employed in the same exact situation, I ask why was that even allowed to be shot on the range in the first place??? (assuming the range allowed it)
I was slightly startled when I learn how much powder goes unburned on the range

Well the source of the video is not really know where it happened so if the Range allowed it, its on them, but all of the places except for one that I know will not allow you to shoot that stuff. Note that I have shot that at the Big Sandy range on several occasions, and I get a much attention from the RO's when doing it. However in the long run, I paid for their Fire Department and the ability to shoot it there. If they say NO MORE, I will quit shooting it. PS: a semi-automatic shot gun will cycle shooting that stuff.

I read somewhere that this was a police range in Brazil.
