Videos tagged with Shotgun Recoil Management

This video explores the experience of firing extremely heavy 12 gauge ammunition, specifically a 2.5-ounce Seismic slug, from a Beretta 1301 Tactical shotgun. The presenter highlights the intense recoil and potential for injury, such as the trigger guard impacting the finger, due to the projectile's weight and the shotgun's configuration. Proper two-handed grip and stance are crucial for managing such powerful loads.

This guide details the 'push-pull' recoil management technique for the Remington TAC-13, as demonstrated by competitive shotgunner Kamryn Carroll. The method involves shouldering the firearm tightly, adopting a stable stance, and using a coordinated body push forward with a simultaneous pull back on the shotgun. This technique is crucial for controlling the significant recoil of a 12-gauge shotgun, especially in semi-automatic platforms like the TAC-13, leading to improved accuracy and faster follow-up shots.
