We at SlapShot USA have been working on a law enforcement ammunition project. The agency involved has asked that we complete some specific tests. We have been posting ongoing updates related to this project at slapshotammunition.com. The tests include penetration when fired from a 10 inch smooth bore shotgun at 20 meters, and accuracy at 20 meters (22yards). The tests were done on two different days one day below 40 degrees and the other just above 50 degrees. The temperature is relevant because temperature can impact ammunition and firearm performance.

The first test was simple enough, they asked us to shoot an engine block to see if the slug had adequate power to effectively penetrate an engine block. With the help of some friends we were able to get a cast iron engine block and a fully assembled BMW engine. We fired the LEM230 at both targets and we shot a popular lead, rifled slug round to compare performance.
