    Well it might be better then the arrows with the .357 rounds mounted on the tip designed to go off on impact using the striking force to pop the primer...

    I can post some links to a guy who has fired everything you can fit into a shell out of a shotgun...

    I mean everything.

    I don't get it.  It seems to me the idea of a 12ga. is to deliver the maximum amount of kinetic energy to your target.  If it's two 3/4" lead balls or a dozen 00-sized shot, you want to transfer ALL that energy to the target, not simply blow through it.  If I am forced to shoot a bear, I intend to stop him in his damn tracks.  I don't want to cut hole through him and wait for him to bleed out.

    The broadhead alone won't have much penetration nor the stability provided by the arrow shaft. Most likely the broadhead will tumble  like a thrown stick right out of the muzzle.

    the video shows otherwise , can't see much use for it but it did have a bunch of penetration and was more or less on target at the 25 yards they where shooting

    I thought we had beat this horse to death a few years ago as well.

    on the right there are links to other you-tube videos, one of those was the 357 rounds you were refering to.......

    Yeah, but it got mixed in with glock vs everything else, and 9mm vs 45, .22 for elk and bear,ect,ect.  Seeing how some missed it, here it is.
