Semi-Auto Shotgun vs Semi-Auto Rifle — Who Clears Faster?
This video demonstrates a timed challenge comparing the speed of deploying rounds from a semi-automatic rifle (Sig Sauer M400 in 5.56) versus a semi-automatic shotgun (Beretta 1301 Tactical in 12 gauge). The focus is on the shooter's ability to fire all rounds as quickly as possible, starting from a low-ready position. The instructor highlights the impact of recoil and ammunition velocity on shooting speed, noting that faster shotgun loads can increase recoil and potentially affect reliability.
