This video tests the recoil and effectiveness of different buckshot loads in 12 gauge shotgun shells. It compares 9, 12, and 15-pellet buckshot loads, evaluating their impact on the shoulder and penetration in ballistic gel. The presenter concludes that the 15-pellet load is more effective for home defense despite increased recoil.

Quick Summary

Testing reveals that a 15-pellet buckshot load for a 12 gauge shotgun offers superior penetration in ballistic gel compared to 9-pellet loads, making it a more effective choice for home defense despite a slight increase in recoil.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference in recoil between 9, 12, and 15-pellet buckshot loads?

The 9-pellet load has low recoil. The 12-pellet load has significant recoil, described as extremely noticeable. The 15-pellet load has a slight increase in recoil over the 12-pellet load but was less severe than expected.

How does the number of buckshot pellets affect accuracy and penetration?

In testing, the 9-pellet load had 7 pellets on target, while the 15-pellet load had 9 on target. The 15-pellet load also demonstrated deeper penetration in ballistic gel, suggesting greater effectiveness for defensive purposes.

Which buckshot load is recommended for home defense?

Based on penetration and effectiveness in ballistic gel tests, the presenter recommends the 15-pellet buckshot load for home defense, despite its increased recoil compared to smaller loads.

Where can I find a wide variety of 12 gauge shotgun ammunition?

Hickory Flat is mentioned as having an extensive collection of 12 gauge ammunition. Squared is also recommended for general ammunition needs.
