Micah Mayfield provides an in-depth review of the Sig Sauer P211 after 3,500 rounds, focusing on its performance, reliability, and comparison to other 2011 platforms. He highlights its Series 80 design for drop safety, its flat shooting characteristics, and the effectiveness of its island compensator. The review also touches on ergonomics, trigger quality, and magazine compatibility with SIG P320 magazines.

This video compares the recoil and muzzle rise of the Chiappa Rhino 60DS and the Smith & Wesson Model 29, both chambered in .44 Magnum. Using the same 300-grain PPU jacketed soft point ammunition, the test demonstrates a significant reduction in muzzle rise with the Chiappa Rhino, estimated to be less than half that of the S&W Model 29. The presenter notes that they did not actively try to mitigate recoil, allowing the revolvers to roll back naturally in their hands.

This video compares 12, 20, and 410 gauge shotguns for turkey hunting, focusing on patterning, penetration in gel blocks, recoil, and cost per round using Federal TSS ammunition. The tests reveal that while all gauges can be effective at close range, the 12 gauge offers the most energy and penetration, the 20 gauge provides a balance of performance and reduced recoil, and the 410 offers a challenging, intimate hunting experience with sufficient pattern density for closer shots.

This video reviews the Mossberg Aftershock, a semi-automatic 12-gauge firearm classified as 'other' due to its bird's head grip and barrel length. The reviewer compares its performance, particularly recoil, to the pump-action Mossberg Shockwave, highlighting the Aftershock's softer shooting characteristics. It also tests various ammunition types to assess cycling reliability and felt recoil, concluding it's a fun and effective firearm despite limitations with certain low-power loads.

This video demonstrates a direct comparison between suppressed and unsuppressed 12 gauge shotgun fire, focusing on sound reduction and felt recoil. The expert instructor highlights the significant decrease in recoil with the suppressed setup, estimating a 40-50% reduction in noise. The test utilizes a Yankee Hill Victor 12 shotgun, showcasing its performance with a suppressor and a mounted weapon light.

This video provides a range review of the Bighorn Armory AR500 chambered in .500 AutoMax. It covers the caliber's specifications, build details, first impressions, and performance testing, including recoil, accuracy from a 10-inch barrel, and ballistics.

This review covers the Big Horn Armory AR500 in 500 AutoMax, detailing its specifications, custom modifications, and performance on the range. The firearm is presented as a powerful, large-caliber AR-style platform suitable for hunting and defense, with a focus on its ballistic capabilities and manageable recoil. The review includes accuracy testing, recoil comparisons, and ballistic demonstrations.

This review provides an in-depth look at the Ruger LCP II LiteRack in .22 LR, tested under extreme cold conditions (-13°F). The instructor highlights its exceptionally light recoil, ease of racking (LiteRack feature), and reliable performance with various ammunition types. It's presented as a viable option for everyday carry, especially for those prioritizing manageable recoil and ease of use over raw power, with comparisons to .38 Special and .45 ACP firearms.

This guide details a test of a 30cm soda can launcher attached to an AR-style receiver, using 350ml Mountain Dew cans as projectiles fired with blanks. The test involved aiming at a ballistic gel head and analyzing the impact, noting significant damage and target displacement. The recoil was compared to a 12 gauge shotgun, and manual cycling was required due to insufficient pressure from blanks.

This video provides a direct comparison of the recoil and power difference between .357 Magnum and .38 Special ammunition when fired from a Kimber K6s revolver. The speaker, identified as Mr. Madness, demonstrates the significant muzzle flip and felt recoil of .357 Magnum rounds at a snowy outdoor range, contrasting it with the much milder experience of firing .38 Special. The review highlights the importance of understanding ammunition performance for concealed carry.

This video compares the felt recoil of the .44 Magnum and the .500 S&W Magnum. An experienced shooter demonstrates that despite the .500 S&W Magnum's larger caliber, the Ruger Blackhawk in .44 Magnum can feel like it 'hurts' more due to the S&W 500's heavier frame and integrated muzzle brake, which effectively reduce felt recoil. The demonstration includes both two-handed and one-handed firing techniques.

Alyssa Seymour provides a comparative review of the B&T APC, B&T SPC, and an HK Rifle, focusing on recoil impulse and price. She ranks the APC as her top choice due to its softer recoil, followed by the SPC, and then the HK. The review highlights price points of approximately $3,000 for two models and $2,700 for the HK.
