um... wow?
OATH expanding shotgun slug (http://www.alloutdoor.com/2016/01/14/oath-expanding-fragmenting-slugs/?utm_source=Newsletter&utm_medium=Email&utm_content=2016-01-16&utm_campaign=Weekly+Newsletter)
I bet those are going to be spendy! But talk about man-stoppers. Or just larger R.I.P. style ammo...?

At first glance made me think of the RIP rounds for pistols

Looks to me like a lot of overkill in expense and otherwise. Check out the video below btw. Imagine cutting some 00 buck...

Glad I wasn't the only one who thought this haha
Although, from what I've read and watched the RIP ammo isn't even that good for a SD/HD type round; all just marketing hype.

That's what I was wondering... marketing hype. I wouldn't touch the RIP ammo if you paid me. Well, maybe if you paid me a lot. Altho an expanding slug would not be a bad thing... claims of over 2½" in diameter after expanded, if true, would be devastating.
or, I guess a little Google-fu and you find this (http://ddupleks.com/index.php/en/1270-cal/hexolit-32.html) Stlll, that OATH look nasty

Getting hit with a regular 12 guage slug would be bad enough.... Just saying... LOL
