Phoenix Rising Ball & Chain Shotshells
These specialized 12-gauge shotshells represent a unique approach to shotgun ammunition design. Each round contains two .60 caliber cast-lead balls connected by a six-inch seven-strand braided steel cable—a configuration known as a bolo round.
How They Work
Upon firing, the balls separate in flight while remaining connected by the cable. This creates a distinctive wound channel approximately six inches wide, with the cable itself slicing through the target as it passes. The design generates 1200 feet per second velocity.
Construction Quality
These rounds are handmade with particular attention to reliability. The balls are cast directly around the knotted cable ends, ensuring the cable remains securely attached. This manufacturing approach prevents the separation failures that plague inferior bolo ammunition on the market.
Performance Advantage
Many competing bolo rounds fail to spread properly upon impact, collapsing into a single wound channel. Phoenix Rising Ball & Chain rounds maintain their separation, delivering the full six-inch wound channel they're designed to produce.
