codit75 Posted April 15, 2012 Report Share Posted April 15, 2012 I love the kick from a 12g, both clay, and game loads. Anyone else. There seems to be a lot of people not liking it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hamster Posted April 15, 2012 Report Share Posted April 15, 2012 (edited) I love hot food, it's the day after that's less appealing. Gun recoil is much the same only the time frame is much greater, but I suspect you know that already. Just in case you're not deliberately trolling let me say recoil is cumulative, it WILL get you in the end if you play silly games with it.

BerettaSV10 Posted April 15, 2012 Report Share Posted April 15, 2012 Don't like the kick as eventually it will wreck your shoulder, also will taken a fraction longer to recover for the second shot. Once went out on a days shooting and fired a slab of cartridges that kicked hard. I knew about it for several days afterwoods. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most defiantly not a troll, just enjoy the experiance of shooting my shotguns. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bedwards1966 Posted April 15, 2012 Report Share Posted April 15, 2012 To be honest, I never notice it. I know that guns kick, but unless I actually put thought into it I don't notice it. I struggle to understand when people have issues from recoil and have to use lighter loads/semi's etc as it's just not something I notice. I might if I shot 50g loads in a 12 bore perhaps, never tried that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BerettaSV10 Posted April 15, 2012 Report Share Posted April 15, 2012 I don't normaly feel the kick, just with certain brands they kick like mules, so I now prefer to use a low reoil cartridge thats always get recomended every whare and which work in the semi as well.

Livefast123 Posted April 15, 2012 Report Share Posted April 15, 2012 Lets be honest, the bang and recoil is one reason why men love guns Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sharpshooter.123 Posted April 16, 2012 Report Share Posted April 16, 2012 Bang and recoil is how we all started isn't it? My first gun I fired was my uncles 10 bore :o that felt like I'd been kicked in the face!! I don't really notice it to be honest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scolopax Posted April 16, 2012 Report Share Posted April 16, 2012 Don't particularly like 'guns' I love hunting in its various forms, guns are just the tools which enable me to do it. Must admit I'm quite fond of my double eight though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest cookoff013 Posted April 17, 2012 Report Share Posted April 17, 2012 i love shooting my homeloads. quite satisfying. best of all, litterally no recoil, and smashes targets, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackstone Posted April 17, 2012 Report Share Posted April 17, 2012 I've had bruised shoulders and very sore cheekbones from shooting 12gauges, not the best fun I've had! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cant hit rabbits 123 Posted April 17, 2012 Report Share Posted April 17, 2012 Being small and lightly built, excessive recoil grinds me down and can ruin a days shooting for me. So, although I love the actual process of pulling the trigger, the gun going bang and hopefully hitting something, the recoil doesn't appeal to me and I wont actively seek to bash myself about!

codit75 Posted April 18, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 18, 2012 I like the way I feel after a hard days graft, battered and bruised, so a few hundred shells through the 12g makes me feel alive, if you get what I mean. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
