870 Wingmaster recoil reduction options
Re: 870 Wingmaster recoil reduction options
Just about anything ever made is available for a Wingmaster. I do not know how the recoil reducers work, but i know a good recoil pad is a big benefit. You might just add the recoil pad and then add weight in the mag tube and stock for starters and see how that works for you.
What could have happened... did.
Re: 870 Wingmaster recoil reduction options
Sorry, I misspoke. I know how they work, I just don't know how well they work on an 870. I must have shot 50 of them, but none ever had a recoil reducer installed. And I know about density. The ones I am familiar with work like a shock absorber to spread the recoil force, in theory. I would think the effectiveness would vary with the loads used unless there is some adjustability to the mechanism. Of course the added weight helps on it's own, but that's expensive ballast.
If you are really serious, I would suggest looking for a gas operated semi auto like the 1100. Remington once made a competition model 870 with a gas system that did not operate the action, it was just there to reduce recoil.
