In the video, the 3D printed projectile is made with a "honeycomb" type crossection, presumbably to conserve material.

Looks like the printed material would be good to deliver a oddly shaped projectile or gas canister. I could see using the printer to make an aerodynamic delivery of something besides just lead balls like the newer steel duck loads that use conical or square shaped pellets.
