I guess the concept is proved in real life by the APDS slug that exists. I was just thinking shot guns are pretty low velocity, so it's not so much you couldn't physically make the thing in theory, just that as velocity is such an important component of it's effect the bonus wouldn't be quite so good as it is higher velocity weapons.
But I'm not basing that gut instinct on anything solid, and that gut instinct is most likely my inner GM's reaction to such a min/max munchkin round!
Higher velocity weapons are modelled by having higher basic penetration damage anyway and the bonus increases that.

That's true it's definitely a "Wayne manufacturing" kind of thing. DU is a pretty controlled substance, I wonder if there is an alternative high density material* that can be used (might not have the pyrophoric effect though)

*tungsten maybe?
