We then tried the Federal 3 inch #4 buck.

It left the wad in the denim.

These pellets made it into the 3rd jug, for a maximum penetration of 6 to 9 inches.

However, some of the pellets left the water jugs and were found in the bottom of the Waterbox.

Then the Remington Home Defense 2 ½ inch 00 buck.

There was one pellet in the 2nd jug, 3 pellets in the 3rd jug, and 1 pellet even entered the 5th jug, for a maximum penetration of 12 to 15 inches.

Notice how they were flattened.

Lastly, we tried two rounds of the 3 inch slug.

One made 3 jugs and one made 4 jugs, for a maximum penetration of 12 inches.
