USCG uses 12 ga rifled slugs to disable fleeing outboards, shooting directly at the blocks. A rifled slug is something different. But you'd still have to be close because of opposing wind resistance. It would do some damage to the engine controls, injectors, carbs - whatever sit's on it, but I doubt the slug will go through or penetrate the block enough to stop it. In particular if the boat is moving at a fairly good clip. So, what kind of motor is this that would stand up to a 12 ga. slug? I want one. Steve |
