The notorious CHEESE-CUTTER Round - Does it slice and dice?

welcome back to alphalater guys jeff and officer greg are here with you on a day that's starting to get pretty hot, today i have something a little special for you, jeff has ridden six sixes, count them, you can't see it, you can. Look at him on the little table, he's rigged up six little pellets, double batch of pellets on a string on a little piece of wire and we're going to shoot these things today and see if six pieces of pellets are evenly spaced on one piece. of wire they stay together they fly in one big piece and act like a big giant

cheese

cutter

they break off the wire the shot is too heavy and it rips them apart and I don't know if they don't I don't know, we don't know, but I've seen this before , some old school French slugs that were connected to each other and the Russians tried it.

An inventor named Benjamin Waugh invented these balls and, uh, no, he didn't actually, so come on. Try these things, we'll test them at a distance to see what they do in the high speed camera, see how they hit a sheet of cardboard and if you know what kind of pattern they make, would they be viable for anything? I'm sure everyone thinks they're going to be the perfect or not perfect home defense round, but we'll take a look at it anyway, let's cut to the chase, okay, I'll be ready when you are, you know, come on, okay, what happened there? what appears to be a large laceration on the cheek, one round happened here, you can see a nice big socket there, it looks like we have another one across the lower jaw area of ​​the cheek, a deeper one here behind the eye, no .

I know what if this is old or new but it caused a bloody wound, yes it was, it's pretty, look at that, hello, my goodness, it's a cut, it's the carved rope, I think so, I think the

cheese

cutter

Fire is not very precise, but hey. Does it have to be? Is this a stoma down here from smoking surgery? I don't know, regardless it looked pretty bloody, so let's take a look at the high speed camera footage so we can see exactly what happened. The round consists of six double nothings. lead balls with a hole drilled through each are held together with a single strand copper wire or telephone wire the wire is simply wrapped around each lead ball there are no knots there is no glue it is not soldered I decided to use six balls for several reasons first I didn't have many pellets to sacrifice per second.

I wanted to keep it simple to minimize malfunctions and ultimately I wanted to maximize the speed of these. These go over 1600 feet per second, so we have eight vintage wet chargers grouped together, uh, those. Many of you in the '80s remember subscribing to Wet magazine. You can Google it if you want to see what the contents of Wet magazine were, but these soggy magazines have been packaged with clear cellophane tape, as you have seen before on this channel. they're a pretty good target well they're a pretty good target because they tend to capture the round and they tend to illustrate the damage that comes from hitting a hydrodynamic static shock yeah that's Latin for big bloody hole yeah and we.

I'm going to try to make one with those six pellets on a string, oh fire, here we go, oh, that was a direct hit, yeah, here we go, oh, what happened? Well, you hit him for one thing, first I hit him, surprise, surprise, surprise, second of all that. Damn bunch of double shot on a string went through this stack of wet magazines and I wasn't thrilled out there, I didn't think they'd do that, no, I found out they're another 30 yards away. A little bit of wet confetti everywhere, but, yeah, that went right through this thing, that's pretty good, and now you can't swipe through all eight magazines, but boo, that's a pretty good impact, actually Yes, not bad.

We have had this that was precise this time, yes. We've had slugs before, we couldn't get over this, I know, I know there's an exit hole. Good job, do you see some wire or something or there's nothing, there's no uh stuff, but if we had a heat gun or a metal detector, we could go. Out there, spend all afternoon looking through hot sand with some metal guy with a heat gun, yeah, hot sand, I got a hot spot here, oh wait, there's the sand that's just a rock, okay Internet scientists, let's try a different one on this.

Prove that the wire

does

a fantastic job of controlling shot spread. We had a very tight pattern and all that concentrated energy just went through the wet magazines. In our previous tests we used shot against wet magazines that none of them had been through. If there's one thing about this test that really surprised me and took me by surprise it was this test, what is that? I don't know, but he's an older guy with a little droop in his eyes, let's fix him up a little so he

does

n't get destroyed, not just can. he draws, he is also a sculptor oh yes, I am a sculptor, you should see it, yes, I can see my nudes, did I do it myself? self-portraits, self-portraits and marbles, if you guys are interested in something like that, I have them for sale finished on teespring on my channel, okay, I'm ready, here we go, oh my goodness, well, there goes your clay block, oh man , here we go, oh my gosh, it's hard to imagine what caused that to happen, yes, let's change. this guy's name for cutting at home he this thing looks cut like a uh like a wire cheese cutter now out of a smooth bar I was expecting these to fly off and fly through the air in a big concentrated mass and that's based on my observations from the bolo rounds we shot a couple of years ago well we saw some impressive results using a smooth bore barrel, let's try it with a fully rifled barrel, what type of choke is it?

Oh dear, it's a fully rifled barrel and we're going to be Fly, we're going to shoot at about 30 yards at the three-eyed noodle taofleder which is not often seen in the wild, not often shot in the wild, yeah, everything It looks good, I'm ready, here we go, we'll do anything, I don't know, oh. I see holes in his forehead oh yeah something happened well we were pleasantly surprised look at this, six balls on a string, almost an exact image of what he was doing that round when it fell apart, that's where you're pointing, I was pointing.

His forehead is fine, that's where it went right between the three eyes. You should always hit them between the three eyes if you're targeting the tough three-eyed leader, but I mean, isn't he that cool? Yes, look at the rope passing by. there like a cheese cutter like a cheese cutter and right there oh you got me you got me again but yeah look at that it's like a rosary of death by the way I had a punk metal band in early the 2000s, just for one month. and they called us rosary of death, we only played in churches and we weren't very popular so all the priests canceled us like the first time we played so we split up now in case you're one of those people who skip the videos, no You didn't look at it all or you just weren't paying attention, this is 30 yards or 27 meters.

I really didn't expect the rifling to attack this group of pellets very well, but it actually did and we see a gentle clockwise rotation. shot chain what's the next target greg we have grumpy jeff grapefruit okay, with the rifle complete he's part of the surly citrus family when you're ready I'm ready holy shit there are still pieces falling in this test we really see the effectiveness of the The cable itself while cutting the pulp of the grapefruit. This 10 yard shot at this relatively small target also shows you the confidence we gained in this strange round. The round actually proved to be much more accurate than we anticipated, you know the kids.

I would describe that as janky janky yeah well let's use that word a lot more just oh it's out of context yeah okay this is off the chain look at this I didn't know your grumpy grapefruit is so muddy. in it, oh definitely those rounds, um, you guys probably already saw them, but those rounds looked like most of them hit the grapefruit and definitely shattered it, we found pieces here 10 or 15 yards away, cut cheese, that's how It smells delicious, no, that's it. The big captured methane thing here, Jeff and I are going to run over there and bounce on that when we're done.

I'm so tempted, but we'll do it first and make sure you film it or you know. oh, you're going to go viral so the coroner knows what happened, we're going to bounce about it with cigarettes and spiked shoes, golf shoes. Jeff and I just got back from a trip to Sam's Italian Deli and Market in Fresno, where we picked up a bottle of Luigi's. spaghetti flavored soda straight from italy luigi spaghetti flavored soda is refreshing on the hottest days dude that's totally nuts that's nuts that's whack jeff look at that so jeff has jeff has loaded this bottle with what's that worms of spaghetti believe it or not the guy who left the comment probably forgot, but a viewer suggested this: put spaghetti in a bottle and shoot it good, that looks delicious, yeah I bet it's been there for about two weeks.

Ooh, the fermented spaghetti probably went septic now, international laws prevent it. It actually stops us from calling it spaghetti soda, so we have to say spaghetti flavor because it wasn't actually made in Italy, so it's like one of those champagne rules, yeah, let's try it against our last ball and mess to our Ben Benjamin. wah balls and uh and look what they do well greg janky that thing here it goes I'm ready oh that round really slaps I'm ready in our test we only saw a slight difference between smoothbore and rifled performance now we admit there was a There is a small difference , but overall their performance was very reliable.

Now there are a lot of things that could have gone wrong, like the cable just got tangled on itself, the cable could have gotten caught between the lead shot and just been cut. during the firing cycle and finally the cable could have been cut simply by passing through the force cone of the shotgun, but the test went remarkably well and that always excites me, so the balls stayed intact, you said they stayed, yes, still They're all tied together to the cable state of the cable. I was aiming low here so we could generate an explosion upwards, which was a pretty sharp shot, yeah, it wasn't as explosive as one would expect, but yeah, they stayed together, they hit pretty much where we were aiming, there's the marks where three or four of those little balls hit the um hit the jar, but you can see the rope is cut, it cut it there, so I didn't give that wire much hope of doing anything more than holding it all together. during the flight yeah that was definitely dumb that's dumb that's so dumb but this part of the video was sponsored by Luigi's spaghetti flavored soda some today will be dead tomorrow so anyway we hope you liked it, it was actually kind of It was an interesting round, it worked differently than we thought, but it was actually pretty impressive, yeah, they stayed together in a smoothbore, they tend to spread out a little more in a rifled barrel, so you got two different mixes there, if anyone I swear.

God puts here, this is a perfect home defense round, no, no, you should have shot through drywall to see if they can get through the perfect drywall because Jeff, if you miss with the other five balls, one ball will will hit and they'll wrap the rope around their legs like the empire is fighting back, yeah, like those little walkers, yeah, no, no, not a good round of home defense, but it's interesting to see it here on the field, so I'll give them we thank everyone for staying with us and uh. Watching this great round I hope you enjoyed it.

I guess we'll see you next time. Hey, that's it, thanks for watching.
