Found a couple of interesting articles. They're on a Finnish Web site, but the text is given in both Finnish and (oddly translated) English, so they're readable.
The first article (http://guns.connect.fi/gow/historia5.html) is about shotgun slugs of the past century or so. There are some odd designs - very interesting stuff. An example is the "shotgun dart":

The second article (http://guns.connect.fi/gow/historia4.html) goes into more detail about Russian and other slugs, etc. Most of the text is in Finnish, but pictures are captioned in English. An example of Russian slugs:

The main Web site is here (http://guns.connect.fi/gow/gunwriters.html) for those who like eclectic firearms information. Enjoy!
