Reportedly new triplex 5.45mm rounds for anti-drone use.

From the highly credible source of some guy on Twitter:

High-Precision Complexes Holding has begun rolling out the first batches of its 'Многоточия' (Ellipse) triplex C-sUAS rounds. These are the СЦ 226 (STs 226) in 5.45x39, and the СЦ 228 (STs 228 in 7.62x39. Claims hit probability is improved by a factor of 2.5x at 300 m.

Yes, M576 buckshot (and some other similar ideas like flechette loadings) exist/existed. However I'm talking about GP-25 compatible rounds being developed and used for anti-drone. While NATO style 40mm has had a lot of experimentation in the past, the 40mm for GP launchers didn't have as much experimentation in the past.
