Centuriator Posted June 18, 2018 Posted June 18, 2018 OK, so I'm looking into Federal's "Flite Control" ammo in various flavors. I want it in 12 guage 00 Buck. My application is SD/HD. Benelli M4 with 7 + 1 + 1 capacity. But now, my options have me a bit confuz-ed. 12 Gauge Federal Flite-Control 8 Pellet Buckshot Ammo 12 Gauge Federal LE12700 Buck Shot High Power ammo with Flite-Control Wad 12 gauge Federal Low Recoil 8 Pellet Buckshot FliteControl Wad ammo What kind of sacrifice in performance am I looking at between these three options? That is, low recoil v. "regular" vs. "high power"? Thanks for your thoughts/opinions. Quote
truckcop Posted June 28, 2018 Posted June 28, 2018 I've found that the Low Recoil 133/132, 8 or 9 pellet patterns much better at distance than the higher power versions. While you give up some muzzle velocity, that really isn't a factor in defensive shooting distances and the lower recoil is a benefit. Quote

kendeepdiver Posted July 12, 2018 Posted July 12, 2018 I to use the low recoil in my M4. Less recoil helps alot on a follow up shot not to mention my shoulder is a lot happier the next day. Also I've never had a cycle problem Quote
