most slugs suck dicks through smoothbores

2018-06-15 11:22:41 UTC  

and I was thinking, how to cause spin stabilization with zero rifling

2018-06-15 11:23:27 UTC  

What if I modified the "wadding" base to make it spin as it's going down the bore?

2018-06-15 11:23:38 UTC  

or even, how could I reliably do that?

2018-06-15 11:24:18 UTC  

I was thinking if I made the wad two pieces, one half being technically a gas delayed blowback

2018-06-15 11:24:23 UTC  

that was on a literal screw

2018-06-15 11:25:42 UTC  

You have two pieces for the base that attaches to the slug, one which is the bottom that is extremely oversized, above 2mil or so

2018-06-15 11:25:56 UTC  

that has a "Screw" in the center

2018-06-15 11:26:02 UTC  

And gas ports

2018-06-15 11:26:12 UTC  

then the base that attaches to the slug itself

2018-06-15 11:26:40 UTC  

with an inside threaded hole that the screw goes into

2018-06-15 11:27:18 UTC  

and the slug and wadding would not be super oversized, maybe exactly at bore size

2018-06-15 11:27:28 UTC  

so the gas would fill this "Chamber"

2018-06-15 11:27:32 UTC  

and it would want to expand

2018-06-15 11:27:56 UTC  

and it'd twist (if the forces can be made to align correctly)

2018-06-15 11:28:07 UTC  

then it would spin

2018-06-15 11:28:31 UTC  

so it's self-propelled?

2018-06-15 11:30:12 UTC  

that looks like it's fin stabilized

2018-06-15 11:30:24 UTC  

which is a totally different and even more painful beast

2018-06-15 11:30:34 UTC  

spin is super easy if you can get it to work right

2018-06-15 11:30:44 UTC  

I just like loading 12ga

2018-06-15 11:30:58 UTC  

it's super easy and there's a lot of room for mistakes

2018-06-15 11:31:38 UTC  

I don't see the need in dedicating a shotgun to shooting slugs (i.e. rifled barrel)

2018-06-15 11:32:00 UTC  

and the rifled chokes only work with some things consistently, not all things

2018-06-15 11:32:46 UTC  

so if I could design a gas delayed wadding that can kinda work and provide enough stabilization to give consistent 2moa groups at 100 out of a smoothbore

2018-06-15 11:32:51 UTC  

that'd be fuckng amazing

2018-06-15 11:33:56 UTC  

my worry is that you need to counter the weight of the slug in the bore

2018-06-15 11:34:04 UTC  

it is self propelled and shot out of a normal shotgun

2018-06-15 11:34:05 UTC  

otherwise the bottom would just spin

2018-06-15 11:35:31 UTC  

I don't think a 3d printer could make something that'll do this right

2018-06-15 11:35:45 UTC  

maybe I could try it on lower pressure loads initially

2018-06-15 11:39:40 UTC  

I wonder how I would be able to simulate shit like this

2018-06-15 11:40:08 UTC  

Fluid dynamics and physics

2018-06-15 11:40:53 UTC  

warez solidworks or some shit

2018-06-15 11:40:54 UTC  

lol

2018-06-15 12:41:11 UTC  

What a debacle. This is what happens when you put Sweden in charge of a game.

It no longer works cuz the new parents don't understand it cuz they didnt get that parenting themselves

2018-06-15 13:12:48 UTC  

I think it becomes clear when the author makes excuses for not wanting a schedule. Kids are smart. If they see parents don't have power over themselves, why respect them trying to have power over you?
