“Thunderhead” is hardcast or an alloy with a channel cut in both sides that causes it to do some gnarly stuff to soft tissue as the round hits and the tissue “splashes” through the gaps instead of displacing from the round. Kind of a more extreme version of a Lehigh Defense Xtreme Defense.
“CFA” is Controlled Fracturing Ammunition, like the G2 RIP. Think hollowpoint but the petals are meant to disperse into the target while the back of the round dumps energy.
“Bolo” isn’t meant to tie something up like a normal bolo, it just allows the round halves to widen out and disperse energy across a wider area. Some people like them for shooting turkey necks, but those people are weird.
It does have some value(like shooting a turkey neck to avoid lead-tainted meat), but it is a novelty or exotic round at the end of the day since it is far too powerful a round to be used for squirrel privateering. Also most woodland mammal cargo vessels haven’t use sails for decades before the bolo round cartridge became viable.
It may be a bit of a joke round, but it wouldn’t be very funny to find yourself at the business end of a derringer with one in the pipe.

I figured it was like chain shot, just without a clear purpose beyond “Because we can”
