@thechickenfriedredneck9104 жыл бұрын
I heard that the flite control doesn't like to be used with chokes cause it makes the wad to get separated from the shot. It does help quite a bit with the regular Remmington to use a modified or full choke.
@thechickenfriedredneck9104 жыл бұрын
@Virus world A choke is a threaded tube that is screwed into the end of a shotgun barrel to modify the diameter of the end of the barrel. Chokes tend to work like a funnel pushing the pellets closer together so that when they leave the barrel the pellets spread less.
@thechickenfriedredneck9104 жыл бұрын
Different chokes are more or less restrictive. A Cylinder bore is just a unchoked barrel. Improved Cylinder is slightly smaller than Cylinder bore. Modified is smaller than Improved Cylinder and Full choke is the smallest choke commonly used.
@thechickenfriedredneck9104 жыл бұрын
Shotguns can have removable chokes that you can change them but others have built in chokes that cannot be removed. Most self defense shotguns dont have removable chokes and typically are Cylinder bore or Modified.

In my 61 years on this rock most of my shooting has been with hand guns and rifles. Not until a few years ago when I bought a combat shotgun with a cylinder bore did I find any interest at all in buckshot. Now I've probably passed the thousand round mark with both factory and reloads in all kinds and sizes of buckshot. The Federal Flight Control is unbeatable in a combat shotgun. They really got it right! I get very similar results that you did with my Mossberg 930 SPX with twenty inch tube, cylinder bore. I would have to rate your video as Great! To many concentrate on in the house ranges, which for the most part prove nothing and fumble around with gloved hands which I find as just plain crazy unless it is ten below zero or something. They might as well wear a welding helmet too. LOL! I have two favorite or carry loads now you might want to try in the future. One is the excellent LE 132-1B load of fifteen pellets of number one buck. The other is the three inch twelve pellet Flight Control load which out of my gun is still plenty effective out to the fifty yard mark averaging seven hits on a coyote size target at that range. You may already know that the flight control wads are NOT all the same, they are different in almost every load Federal makes. I wish they would release a General, Standard, Average, for a better way to describe it flight control wad for us reloaders to experiment with. I think some great loads could come from that. Once again, Great video!

@Travis Thacker Most Factory loaded Buckshot is undesized for its nominal stated size . 00B is usually +/- .320 , with Hornady running .315-ish . This isn't necessarily meant to be deceptive , nor meaningfully short changing customers . Due to physics and dimensions , " true sized" buckshot won't stack in expected layers, if a shot cup of substantial wall thickness . And the users are most definitely better served by the tighter patterns achieved with proper wads .
@kentwilliams3326 Жыл бұрын
Hi Buffalo. Looks like the Federal flite control ammo is the best for hunting while the Remington is a better self defense round. The reason is because buckshot spreading is to be desired in a self defense shotgun which increases hit probability when dealing with a dynamic target. If someone really wants a tight group they can use a rifled slug.

Hey Buffalo, first time I've seen any of your videos and I picked this one on purpose. First off, I own a Mossberg 88 and for the budget price it is all I need to protect my family against that awful day, heaven forbid, but like this one guy said, "Don't train for 'what if's, but for 'when thens'" I was one of those guys who didn't think I needed a gun but partner, it does not take a rocket scientist to know that every law abiding citizen has a duty to arm themselves. Your video answered a question in my mind about using regular or flite control wad. In a middle of the night situation, and seeing just how tight that pattern was, I have decided to not use the flite control for home defense purposes. Thanks, all the best!

I didn't realize that the Remington stuff was buffered until I actually opened it up. I was glad it was for the video's sake though because that left the one major component that effects the pattern, the wad, being the only difference between the rounds. So we got a good comparison, at least in my mind. That being said I wish I would have had some non buffered stuff to throw in the mix. That sounds like another video to me. Buffered vs non-buffered.

These are the two brands of Buckshot that I keep on hand. I like the Remington in single ought and double ought, been shooting it for years, then I have the Federal Law Enforcement 00 Buckshot with the Flite Control Wadding. With the Federal Buckshot, I get the same results you do, I mostly practice at 30, 40, 50, and 60 FEET, sometimes out to 100 feet. I don't hunt, I just shoot for the "fun of it" and of course, since I live in a high crime area, in the country, I have my guns for personal defense maybe. So I do not anticipate shooting threats at great distance. I sometimes, attach my silhoutte targets to an empty steel 55 gallon drum, and I get the same result you do though at times the Wadding will be stuck in the "wound" of the target. Since it penetrates the steel barrel after the cardboard target, it will leave the Wadding in the hole sometimes. Either there or at the feet of the target. This is what I always get at 30 to 60 FEET, not yards. It seems to me the Federal has less recoil than the "Remington". The "brass" (actually steel cup) is much deeper on the Remington as compared to the Federal. However the Federal has plenty of recoil (gas actually) to cycle my Remington 1100. At very close range, I really think the Flite Control Buckshot could even cause a more catastopic wound than a Slug, but I have no data to back that up. It seems to me nine pellets in an area only slightly larger than a slug would actually do more damage. However I doubt the "recipient" of such a blast could detect ANY difference whatsoever. He would not be around to "give a critique" I don't think. Also, even though I own several shotguns I PREFER to practice with the Maverick I own. You know, I have had it ten years and it has never failed once and has been shot a lot. I have a Mossberg M-590-A1, it is a fine shotgun and is heavier than the Maverick but with the same ammo I cannot tell the difference between the two guns except for the Ghost Rings Sights on the 590. For what I paid for the M-590 I could have bought two more Mavericks and had money left over. The Remington auto-loader will gobble up either one of these rounds, but it is so heavy and BIG I prefer the handle and shoot the Maverick. For $190 bucks, one of the best guns ever made. Not too often can you get something Cheap and pretty good at the same time. Good video and commentary, Thanks, BB
@filianablanxart83053 жыл бұрын
As a Class , " Tactical " Buckshot has three characteristics at minimum : Hard and/ or Plated shot Buffered Reduced Recoil. For better control for faster follow up shots, or multiple threats . As a bonus, can also contribute to tighten patterns . The usual goal is recoil similar to a standard 1 1/8oz Trap Load . This is achieved through moderate velocity , and sometimes reduced pellet count , i e 8 00B rather than 9 .

Tighter is always better , even for Home Defense . The more accurate statement would be to the effect of " At inside the home distances , the deficencies of poor patterning buckshot don't prevent it from being useful " . Buckshot has to be aimed ( all shotguns @ in home distances need to be aimed ) . The closer together the pellets strike increase the destruction from adjacent and overlapping wound channels .

Great stuff! Federal Flitecontrol 12 GA 00 Buck 9 pellets is my primary 12 GA load for my Maverick 88. Mine is the 18.5 inch barreled Security model. The Flitecontrol shells I use are the 1145 fps i.e. the lower recoiling version. Max effective range I've gotten so far with them out of an 18.5 inch barrel was about 25 yards. Though 00 Buck is what I rely on for the most part, I do keep a few slugs handy in case I need to boost range like beyond 25 yards or if I need lots of penetration. As for slugs I rely on Brenneke THDs and the ATSs. Both are very powerful especially the ATS, yet low recoiling.

Those are the two brands I prefer and I have a case of each now, a partial case of each. I have some Remington Single ought I bought on sale, PRICE matters to me. I bought the Federal Law Enforcement ammo on sale as well, so it was CHEAPER. But I get the very same results you do, and I have one Mossberg 88 exactly like yours, boy you cannot beat that Maverick 88 at $190 Bucks + tax etc. The 88 I have is ten years old I think, it has NEVER malfunctioned once and has had a lot of ammo run though it. I have three others, a Remington 1100 and a Mossberg M-590-A1, and a Browning shotgun and have owned several Mossberg 500 Shotguns. The M-590-A1 is a very fine shotgun to me, It has Rifle Sights on it, and a good shoulder stock with an excellent Recoil pad. Of the four shotguns I have, I like shooting the 88 best. I can shoot the M-590-A1 with the same ammo, I cannot tell the difference. I quit testing them at either 50 or 60 FEET. Of course I don't want to ever have to shoot anyone, and never have, but out at 50 or 60 feet or more it is doubtful I ever will. It is doubtful anyway, but at some distance I feel that is less likely. I practice most often with Birdshot of course, but I get the same results you do, on the FEDERAL Law Enforcement ammo the WADDING will stick IN the target or will pile up at the base of the target. It runs FINE in the Remington Auto-Loader, but I don't like that shotgun as much as i do the Mossbergs as the lifter and all that machinery is in the way when re-loading. That is one thing about a Remington Shotgun I do NOT LIKE. The Mossberg is easier to reload as you "go". I have a Hogue Short or Youth Stock I guess it is on the Mav 88. That is about a $90 bucks upgrade. It has a 12 inch LOP. I run the largest choke on the Remington for Buckshot. The others are all smooth bore of course. The Maverick 88 is the same length sitting in the safe as the M-590-A1, about the same length, but it might be a little bit LIGHTER. The M-590 is a 8 + 1, the 88 a 7+1. But I have had it ten years, I have repainted it at least twice (the barrel and Mag Tube. The low cost of it makes me want to shoot it the most as if something happens to it I have not suffered as much $$ loss. The Federal cycles the Auto-loader just tine, but it seems it may have a little bit LESS RECOIL. Not for sure, it is very powerful. Seems the Remington ammo has more recoil. The rifle sights to ME are not a big deal. I have a bead sight on the 88, I get the same results with either one. Anyway, those 88's they seem to be a little bit loser *maybe* than the more expensive Mossbergs, but for $190 bucks, it is just about the best buy ever in a serious fire arm. I has NEVER let me down once. The others haven't either, except I ahve had a malfunction with the REmington 1100. I seemed to have solved that with some Lubrication in a critical area within the firearm. For what that M-590 A-1 cost I could buy TWO 88's and had money left over. But it is a very nice Defensive shotgun. The auto-loader is a great one too, but it is the most expensive firearm I own. Then the machinery is in the way to "reload" so it is not my favorite.

@harrypeterson928713 күн бұрын
I'd disagree with all the folks who believe flite control is the Holy Grail of home defense loads. At close range 00 buck will go clean through the average man and even with a standard wad the spread is pretty tight at HD distances. In most homes the pellets will either still be inside the FC wad or still be stacked tightly together in a column. This creates a slug like effect that not only reduces wounding area but also increases penetration in flesh and obstructions in the home in the event of a miss. You can't really beat standard 27 pellet #4 buck. Adequate but not excessive penetration on target, considerably reduced penetration through the home over 00 and a staggering increase in tissue destruction. 27 pellets of #4 buck have a combined frontal area of 6.48" inches, 9 pellets of 00 have a combined frontal area of 2.97". It begs the question, would you prefer to have 6.5 inches worth of holes in you or 3 inches worth? In short, #4 is considerably both safer and more effective for home defense.

When shooting a demonstration for a U.S. Border Patrol class I started at 50 yards and worked in from there. I had already shown them a video of patterns fired at ranges out to 80 yards. Why 80? Well it was because some of them had heard that beyond 50 yards the buckshot pattern spread was too great at that range and therefore useless. Our testing showed a consistent one pellet 00 buckshot hit at 80 yards. Just one hit? Yes, but then I would fire four more quick shots causing a total of at least 5 hits. I never had to say anything after that demo. They could see the results.

Very good video. My oppinion on the 2, 12 gauge is that An old school buckshot is far better. With flight control ammo its more like a rifle. If i should use one of them for home defence i go for the remington ammo. A shotgun should be a shotgun.
@bobgordon17544 жыл бұрын
There is a time and place for all things. Yyou are right about indoors where even the worst buckshot shots tight but I've shot flight control in a real world scenario on the street where I was glad the pattern was only one you two inches wide.

You could still kill a deer at 40 with the Federal where the Remington might just cripple something, I love your videos , hey are always so informative. Thankyou for doing this for us. A very fair comparison of two different types of buckshot available.

The way i see it. You need the spread at close range for self defense for multiple organ shots. You need the range on game. My mossy 835 over-bored barrel can't use slugs so i love the flite buck on deer.
@buffalosoutdoors7 жыл бұрын
I like the way you see it. That's why I done this video, to shot the differences and see for myself but also to let people come to their own conclusions about how they would use these loads.

I have the same line of thinking. You might as well use a slug if you want patterns that tight. My halls aren't very long so standard 00 buck is what I keep in my shotgun.
@PolygonGTC5 жыл бұрын
@@PastorDr.MartinSsempa Using a slug is a terrible idea. Not because of the lack of a pattern, but because of the vast over penetration. It would go through the target, any walls in you home including the exterior wall, and possibly into your neighbors house. You risk the lives of anyone in your home as well as anyone near your home. As to using a round like this for home defense, I offer up some alternative logic. Personally, I didn't pick a shotgun for home defense because it's easier to place hits on the target. I picked it because it's far more devastating at closer range. When training with the shotgun, I treat it like any other gun I would use. Aim for center mass. I can assure you that even if you don't hit them in a vital area, with a grouping that tight at 5 to 10 yards, it's incredibly unlikely they would continue the fight be it voluntarily or involuntarily.

Clint Gardner I agree with you as well Clint, and I'd like to add that when buckshot hits meat, or ballistic gel you'll see the buck stream off into dispersing patterns away from center even if it was flight control or extremely bunched together making one hole in paper. So if you have a very small target of opportunity, you can keep all pellets on target, but once in the target it the pellets will all move away from center spreading out causing the devastating wound people are looking for. The shot you might take may not be a clean 18" target, you may have to shoot something very small and you may not want to have errand pellets missing that small target and going who knows where.

Nice, simplistic video. Unfortunately, finding the FliteControl during these times is very difficult.

For the difference in cost and still no failures out of thousands of rounds, my cheaper 00 Buck does just fine... Not sure how many shotgun fights outside are in my future, but I'm good for indoors... My CCs are 6" out to the 50 yard marks, so............ yeah...

I did some buckshot testing. I found that clyinder bore worked best with Flitecontrol. I got worse results running it through same barrel with modified and improved cylinder. Thank you
@buffalosoutdoors7 жыл бұрын
I wondered how that flitecontrol set up would do with some choke applied. That is something I will test here in the future but I didn't want to dive in and test different chokes on this video because it could have went an hour long. Thanks for the input and feedback.

Good Video Brother. !! I did the same thing with my Mossberg and 4 brands of 00.. The Federal won hands down..I shot one group that had 6 pellets @50yds.. I never could repeat that...
@filianablanxart83053 жыл бұрын
An example of the need to test multiple patterns . They vary from shot to shot . In this video we can see this with Buffalo's results @ 15 and 20yds with the R-P buckshot . He got 12in patterns at both distances . This was a case of the 15yd pattern happened to be on the wide end of the range of results , and the 20yd was randomly smaller group . If you fired 5 patterns at each distance , and averaged , the results probably would have followed expectations .

The Flitecontrol works best from cyl bore or at most imp cyl in IME. My favorite is 00 buck LE for coyotes.
@mattholland89664 жыл бұрын
I liked this video, very informative. I'll stay with the Remington ammo. The spread let's me get on target a bit quicker. I find you never want to finish second in a gun fight. If I need the range I should have time to load a slugging.

When I patterned my auto5 I found I could go from 40 to 50yrds effective by going to a magnum load. This was shooting #4 shot. Patterning is certainly interesting and something you need to do. The flight controls get blown with my fixed full choke I can only get about 30yd out of them.

Good video very informative. I have a modified Remington 870 by Vang Comp Systems out of Chino Valley, AZ. Pretty much allows you to shoot regular buffered 00buckshot to 25+ yards without any special wadding. I patterned Remington 27 pellet #4 Buckshot to 20 yards and got a dense pattern center mass and consistently get sub 10" spread out of it. My choice for home defense loading. I am going to push it out to see how far I can get a sub 15" group. I am thinking I can get 25-30 yards out of it. -edited fixed typos
