Would these rounds show up for retail sale in Canada?

Don’t need them, but would be cool to have.

Don’t need them…yet.

I've seen these before, but what choke would produce the best results at the distance they preach these work at?

For anything that flies, weight is always an obstacle to be overcome. Nothing that flies is going to be 'overbuilt'. The heavier the aircraft, the more lift is needed, and therefore power. Spinning mass such as rotor blades has gyroscopic effect. Rotor blades have to be strong enough to sustain the centrifugal loads exerted from rotation and the twisting loads from the generation of lift. I would have thought any good load of well placed shotgun pellets should suffice to remove most drones from a stable state of flight overhead as propeller and rotor blades are not happy in an unbalanced state, though 40-50 yards effective range disappears quickly when sixty mph equals 88 ft/sec, and these drones are doing 90 mph. Watching these guys shoot the drones with their 5.56 drone loads, their greater rate of fire and effective range made a huge difference.

It's more a question of effective range of the shot load in question imo.

You've obviously thought about this question before ....

Their greater rate of fire and range allowed them to fill the airspace with shot and get it on the target before the drone reached them. 90 mph puts that drone, when it's one second out at 44 yards. Your shotguns effective range falls not too far beyond that. A one second reaction time is gone in a blink.

Looks like 12g antidrone rounds are available?
