Cool video. Presented well keep up the good work. I would like to see different slingshots with lights and lazers.

Very nice presentation. answered my question directly with clear results. Great work.

Countryfolk in the uk have used lead for as long as slings have been in use, i find it metal detecting. Cut into strips and rolled up into pellets. Some of it is very ancient. Lead has the weight advantage over stones ,specially for bigger game.

Excellent video, I shoot but often wonder about penetration ability, wish I started as young as you !

Great job, man! I’m going to purchase one this week, and go with the lead round!

Nice experiment and interesting results! 👍

Dude major good vid and comparisons thanks man keep em comin

Thanks, that answers my question about clay. I had no doubts about Pb. I'll plink with steel and if I hunt-go with Pb (of the same weight but less diameter than steel).

Excellent video, very informative and clear. Great job!

I just switched back to 9.5 I have not seen the full video yet so I’m excited to see what is dose

Well done!! 👍👍👍

Hi! Awesome video! Can you try the same test (or maybe the max distance) able to do whit fereless slingshot? Thank you very much 🙏🏻🔝

Lead, huh? Good to know - Thanks! 🤘😁

Good video young man I've subbed your channel now and will be having a look at your other vids 🎯👍

11mm steel is the best. For over 15 years of slingshot hunitng experience, i know for a fact that the blunt force trauma is the factor here. If you want to hit a rabbit head consistently you need a good normal mouth bow anchor point. No butterfly style of shooting is included here. Ideal would be 10 mm lead but its much harder to get and more expensive. Over that weight you will get unnecessary trajectory loss. 11 mm steel is 5.5 grams and kills every time if hit in rabbit head. 8 mm steel, 2 grams does not, belive me i have tried. I also recommend 1745 tubes over bands for 11 mm steel. Because you get atleast 10-15 times more shots before they brake. Also you dont have to mess with cutting tapered bands all day long. And the speed is fairly the same compared to thera band gold. So my advice is 11 mm steel and 1745 tubes :)

That was helpful, thanks. Just curious where you are getting 8mm lead balls? Steel ammo is readily available, but I’m not finding a good source for lead balls yet.

I actually got the 8mm lead from one of my uncles that used to reload shotgun shells. He had a bag full of it and he gave it to me because he doesn’t reload them anymore. I couldn’t find any lead balls for sale either so I had to buy a mold and make my own.

Maybe use clay 😂

Clay ammo is very light you would probably find It more accurate in a lighter set up. Ratting in barns and sheds ant 5 to 7mtrs clay mostly works and doesn’t ricochet as as bad as steel. But small leads are more deadly and if they splat steel or brick they don’t ricochet much either. Clay shattering and steel bouncing round the shed makes me nervous.

Use pyramid fishing weights... trust me. Its like a musket

The slingshot rifle has a red dot so I just put the red dot on the target and slowly pull the trigger, if it’s sighted in it should hit the target.

Nice test! Why would 8mm polished steel has less penetration than rough 8mm lead rounds? What is there weight difference, I assume it has to do with material density? Besides penetration I also wonder what would be more accurate for target shooting over long ranges, 8mm steel vs 8mm lead?

@hudsonhertz

11 ай бұрын

Lead has more penetration due to the density difference, for a long range, you have to aim higher with lead but it’s more stable through the wind, the wind affects steel more so at long distance lead would most likely be a little better, wind resistance, and power wise.

​@@hudsonhertz Awesome thanks for reaching out! I am still considering what would be the best all-round ammo type, also taking in consideration what is the most cost efficient and things like environmental friendly to use.. In both those cases lead is definitely not the preferred way to go.. After some more research I might think that for close range up to 20 or 30 meter any 8 mm steel ball shot with the right band set and especially full butterfly has more than enough speed to accurately hit targets without getting effected by wind at all, is very cost efficient, environment friendly and has almost no reshaping so it can also be reusable compared to 8mm lead.. And for the longer range shots and even with enough potential for close range hunting I think 9.5 mm steel would be the best and most cost efficient choice, taking in count that steel also just fly faster than lead with less drop-off until any wind might get the best of it.. I understand with lead if you shoot long range you need to aim high, but having to guess too much has more luck involved and that has not much to do with accuracy I believe.. Just to be clear for close range and even some mid range, I do understand that for hunting impact specifically 10mm lead balls are the most effective for sure.. But I am looking for the all-round best target shooting options for all ranges repeatedly, and I must also note that 10mm lead is way more heavy than 9.5/10mm steel for example, so lead also needs more heavy band sets to make them shoot somewhat equal and pulling butterfly`s that heavy might become exhausting fast..

I've seen people say the daisy brand is good for plinking but doesn't have good penetration.. but there are marbled brands you can get that are awsome. Because they are smooth glass you get spin.. almost like a bullet through a rifled barrel. This spin creates extreme accuracy for long distance shots. And the hardnend glass gives great kinetic impact power per square inch. Now, I use a wrist rocket type sling.. but I'm sure they will work just as well with a traditional sling. Good luck and have fun.

The large, let's say .50 cal , are much lighter than steel yet you still get 5xs the impact than clay. So you can hit really hard from a really long distance.
